when wallflowers reproduce

Let me preface this by saying that I am nowhere near feeling ready to have kids. I hope I will be, someday, but I feel like someday is still some indeterminate number of years away (5? 7? 3? Surely not 3!?). Nevertheless, this blog post resonated with me. This is kind of what I fear/expect/anticipate my life as mom of an infant would be (which is part of my anxiety about taking the leap into that stage of life, I think). Simultaneously wanting to be friends with but also hating all the other moms, incapable of making new friends, and having no access to my old ones, and trapped in some kind of weird career limbo. But hey, the baby is congenial!)
