I have a fear that I will eventually be alienated from all my friends. My single friends will no longer feel they can relate to me because I'm now a mother. My married friends will have a hard time including me since I'm single. But so far, most of my friends are still my friends. A few friends dropped off the map after I got pregnant. Maybe they thought that I could only talk about baby stuff.
When I was very pregnant, maybe 35 weeks or so, I was having lunch with my good friend Donna when we ran into a couple of our friends from law school who joined us. Sadly, I couldn't keep up with the conversation at all. My focus had shifted. I was voraciously reading pregnancy and baby related material and was paying very little attention to state politics. I can't deny that my interests have changed.
