For me, no. Most of my friends are in serious relationships/just engaged/just married.
A couple have just had their first kids.
What about you?

Some of them! A couple of our friends have their first child (with one couple expecting their second), but some of my friends are just newly married or still dating! It's probably about half with kids and half without!

No, not really. We are ahead of most of our friends that are our age - many of them are single, renting rooms, still in school, etc. We also have friends who are 10+ years older than us, who are way ahead of us. We are stuck in the middle, which is hard sometimes. I would love to make more friends who are in the same life stage as us.

My mummy friends, yes! Though my pre-LO friends, not so much. One is pregnant with her 3rd and the others are recently married or still dating.

Nope. None of our really close friends are even in relationships...I have noticed things changing now that we are expecting our first baby in 6 weeks, so I'm curious how our relationships will change after LO shows up.

Yep, mostly! I still have a few single friends but almost all of our friends are married and either have a kid or are trying for their first.

Not really, we got married on the early side in our social circle. We have a handful of friends who just had their first, and one couple is pregnant now. I'd say most of our closest friends are married or engaged, or in long-term/cohabitating relationships, but two of my closest friends and two of dh's closet friends are single. I find it more awkward around dh's single friends than mine though--his friends want to hang out by going out to bars, whereas my bff and I mostly have brunch or something else low-key like that now that I'm pregnant.

most have two kids. so it's hard to get together. i think it'll change as they get older. it is way easier to hang out with my single friends!

My closest friends have children and/or new parents, but most are a few years into marriage or in serious relationships without kids.

Some of them are catching up and getting married. Two have started a family, and it's nice to be at the same stage. Well not exactly the same. They are battling being first time parents, and DH and I are considered the experienced ones.

We're all in different places--single, married, with kids, without. I think the variety might come from living in a university town that draws lots of different types of people.

Some of my old HS friends have kids that are older, and D and I have some not-close friends that have toddlers, but a lot of our friends are either single, DINK (living together, unmarried) or are engaged (4 weddings this year!) None of our close friends have kids.

Yes. Many are married and have one young child/baby or are pregnant. The other set are unmarried (many not dating) and have no children.

not really. most are either single, engaged and no one else really has kids. it gets lonely being the 'old married couple'(even though we've only been married for 2 1/2 years) with 2 kids. haha

My friends in the US are still mostly single and childless. Since moving here, ALL of my new friends are mommies.

We have an interesting mix of friends. The younger ones (by a few years) are in the engaged/getting married phase. We look like the sages among them with being married 4.5 years with a toddler.
The friends we've been with since we met years ago are at the same phase we are at. A lot of them have kids and have been married for some time. One couple is celebrating 7 years of marriage this year and another one is celebrating 10 years.

Nope. Most of my HS friends are done having kids already-they've got 4 and 5 year olds! We've been the ones who were on a totally different path.

Sort of but not really. Most are trying for their 2nd or 3rd child, others have already had their 3rd or 4th child, and the rest are still single. We are currently pregnant with our first.
