No mommy friends?
I kinda feel bad for my son that he doesn't have friends his age (almost 2) to play with because I don't have any friends with kids his age. We do go to a music class and he gets to interact with other kids there but other than that he's just with me all the time.
I know he's too little to understand the concept of a friend but I feel my inability to meet other moms and be part of playgroups is hurting him.
His b-day is in July and I hear of other families who have tons of little kids at their parties and Kevin will be the only little one as his cousins are much older.
Am I just overreacting?

I understand how frustrating that can be... well my DD is not 2years old but I'll be your friend.

Re: No mommy friends?
I can relate. DD has no cousins to play with and we don't know many people with small kids. I actually took a music class with DD this winter and met one 'Mommy-friend". I am kind of shy so this was huge for me.
The music class is great for your DC to interact with other children. Don't beat yourself up, your being too hard on yourself. I'll bet most of the Moms in your class are looking for friends too.

Re: No mommy friends?
I am in the same boat (DD is only 1 though)....we were the first of our friends to have a baby so none of our friends have any kids yet. Some of my cousins have children but they are older than DD. I am thinking of joining Gymboree or something like that to get DD to interact with other children her age...I can definately relate to how you are feeling though. I am on the shy side too and its hard for me to meet and make new Mommy Friends.

Re: No mommy friends?
I feel the same exact way. Christopher will be 2 in July and he's only hung out with one other little boy.
