FH and I have so many friends who were extremely interesting and fun, and since having children, have become completely different people. Now they aren't able to talk about anything besides children. I understand that having a baby changes people, but this much? I was listening to my friend, who prior to kids regaled us about her travels, interesting hobbies, funny stories, and this weekend spent an HOUR discussing her 7-month-old's bowel movements, and could talk about little else. I see this so often, and it really concerns me that:
1. (most importantly) I will become like this, and bore myself, FH, and those around me to tears.
2. I will not have any interesting friends who can do anything without their children

Have you found people who are the exception? What did they do differently? Please give me hope!
