DH friends,we will be the first. Only cause one couple has had multiple miscarriages and now are undergoing fertility treatments o figure out what is going on. Fingers crossed they will be right behind us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269348 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 08:23:43 +0000 Andrea 269348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just about all of my friends have kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269321 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 08:11:44 +0000 spaniellove 269321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few of our friends have kids and are already divorced, and the rest don't have kids yet - I think many of them plan on not having kids ever for one reason or another. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269314 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 08:08:17 +0000 mrsjyw 269314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bff is currently preggers, DH's best friend has 3 boys. DH also has a few guy friends who have kids, but we don't see them often.</p> <p>Outside of that, all of our friends don't have kids yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269291 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:57:49 +0000 LuLu Mom 269291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On my side, I have 6 very close girl friends; 2 have kids, 2 are TTC, and 2 without (both are not married yet.) </p> <p>DH's side: His best friend is due 10 days before us, and his 3 other BFFs have kids already. Another good friend is engaged and no children. </p> <p>So for the most part most of our friends either have kids or are trying, which makes it nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269285 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:51:33 +0000 SleepyMonkey 269285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my husband's friends have kids but most of my girlfriends are single or dating someone seriously. So its about half and half. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269281 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:50:12 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 269281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's really a split pot for us. We have about 4-5 close couples that have kids or are pregnant, and about 6-8 that aren't. I'm sure that will start to shift over the next few years though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269275 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:47:11 +0000 mrs. bird 269275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only 2 with kids. Most aren't even married yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269257 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:24:50 +0000 Adira 269257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 friends with kids and 4 without. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269158 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 02:48:17 +0000 looch 269158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say it's split down the middle, half with kids, half without. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269153 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 02:33:32 +0000 heffalump 269153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have one couple friend here with kids, one that I'm friends with the girl and we have play dates. I have some friends out of town too with kids..... but we rarely see them so that doesn't count. Most my friends don't have kids.</p> <p>I hope once lo starts school we'll befriend her friend's parents. My parents are still friends with my preschool friends parents. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269073 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 22:55:21 +0000 chopsuey 269073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 friends with kids.. 3 without! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-269038 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 22:27:47 +0000 DillonLion 269038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very few of our friends have children. We are the first in our close circle of friends to have a baby, even though we are the youngest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268991 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 22:00:51 +0000 yin 268991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Surprisingly none with kids and everyone without. I'm turning 26 &amp; DH is 29. Everyone around us is starting to get married while we're on our 2nd year of marriage with a 16 month old. It makes it difficult to find people who can relate, and most friends don't want to hang out with the married couple with a kid. Sad but true. Luckily my sister has a daughter who is 4.5 months younger than DH and my other is pregnant with her first &amp; due in a few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268985 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:57:49 +0000 Mrs. Pen 268985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have a ton of friends yet. We have our group church of friends and that's about it... so it's maybe 3-4 families. But only one that I hang out with on a regular basis.</p> <p>My sister has a kid.</p> <p>Otherwise we know 10+ couples or singles who don't have kids. My BFF from elementary school is still single. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268971 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:47:06 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 268971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm the first of all my close friends to have kids. i'm not even that young (29), but they don't plan to have kids until 2-3 years from now!!! and i'm already pregnant with my 2nd. sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268941 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:34:15 +0000 JennyD 268941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're surrounded now. Most of my close friends had babies the same time as me! I feel very lucky. I also made friends with a few great girls in our prenatal class, and we hang out often. We've become particularly close with one couple. Most of our siblings have small children and babies too. The only childless friend left is my best friend, and I prefer, for my own sanity, that she stay that way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268897 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:16:13 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 268897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With our good friends back home it's about 50/50, but where we live now all of my friends have kids! Probably because I met them mostly through mommy type activities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268796 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 20:49:40 +0000 littlecasita1122 268796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are close with two couples that have one child each. All of our other close friends do not have any kids yet - most of them are not even engaged at this point :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-friends-do-you-have-with-children-how-many-without#post-268770 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 20:45:40 +0000 BSB 268770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Friends that I hang out with.... 7 friends with children and a lot more friends without children.</p> <p>I'm sure this will change when I have kids. </p>
