Late in the game ladies - do your friends understand you don't feel like going out?

I think because I am already on leave, they think I desire to go out to dinner and stuff and entertain and socialize. I'm not in the mooodddd. I'm too tired! I've been bailing a lot, so tonight I'm sucking it up for a group dinner, but wanted to see if anyone else is in my shoes.

None of them have kids yet, either. I can't wait until they understand..

I'm actually the opposite. - I don't want to miss an opportunity to go out - either w/ DH, w/ DH and friends, or just w/ my friends ..........

I know once #2 comes it's going to be more and more difficult to go - so I'm getting it all in now and just sucking it up through being totally drained and exhausted !!

my friend was having that problem. i felt i was the only one around us that understood what she was going through - even though at the time I had never been pregnant before. she was always tired, sick - around my Bparty before my wedding she found out and my friends were encouraging her to drink!

the fatigue has already hit me and I'm already dreading my friends and there comments.

I'm the opposite! Been home for a week and a half now and have complete cabin fever!!!! I'm looking for every opportunity to go out especially since I know I won't have much of these opportunities after LO is born... But I say ignore everyone and do exactly what you feel right! Don't even give their comments another thought! It's your time now and if you feel like making a YOU shape on the couch it's your prerogative!

I hear ya!!! I am so damn exhausted ALL the time! Between work, and DS. I never want to go out! I much rather lay on my couch! I can't wait to get even a little bit of energy back!

No, they don't. At all. And they leave me snotty Facebook posts about it.

(Can you tell that this just happened and I'm still annoyed?)
