[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you have copious amounts of money for babysitters, and your kid sleeps 12 hours a night all the time, your single friends will slowly stop inviting you to things. They are in a different phase of life and probably don’t want to hear about Larla’s latest milestone. As time goes on you will likely make more friends who are parents and have more in common with you. Don’t be a parent who tries to live their Pre-baby party life. That’s not to say you won’t keep some of your old friends but I would not expect to be able to do everything you did before. You are now responsible for a small human 24-7. Your friends are not. [/quote] My mom is ALWAYS willing to watch the baby, she loves her grandkids and it is her whole world. She would have us live with her if she could. So we have a ready sitter at the helm, all it takes is a drive to her house, and then off we go. It sounds like others have maintained their friendships, so glad to hear that will be a possibility. And we plan to have only 2 kids, so we think they can be good travel companions. DH is in tech sales so we expect his salary to grow quickly, so not worried about affording the lifestyle, its just making sure we all get enough sleep (so NY morning we all took turns with my mom taking care of the baby so hangovers were not an issue)[/quote] Wait til baby is mobile. My parents are in their 70s and they could not Keep up with our 2 year old. [/quote]
