Before Wendy started at school, she and Daniel are really close and we had a couple of playdates. Wendy started later and turns out, Wendy and Daniel parents are from the same country and they speak a common language. In any case, the 3 kids play really well at school. I learned from social media (I am friends with them) that Daniel and Wendy have lots of playdates together but my daughter was not invited. I am feeling sad because DD would have love to play with them as well. DH thinks that it's not because they don't like DD or me, but because they the parents, just bonded, and they probably have conversations and just plan a play date without even thinking of us.

I know it's a big deal but as a FTM, I just want to understand how to navigate these playdates stuff. I thought that if the kids like each other, we would do playdates together.

Try to to take it personally, and it's completely not about your daughter. The parents clicked and formed a friendship based on common backgrounds. If I were you I would invite them, either 1-1 or everyone to your home for a playdate.
