You will lose some and gain some good ones as well! At least that is my experience.

A colleague stopped talking to me.
Before I got pregnant she did the same with another pregnant colleague..
I think she is scared of pregnant women and may havd had a bad experience???
Like.. she is imagining that we are raging hormon pumped crazy women..
which we are not :)
Atleast I dont think I am :)

Most of my friends just disappeared when I told them my gr8 news.... we still have contavt like maby once in 2 months but tjen its me reaching out to  them wanting to reconect or something, but atleast some of them will then show up at my house for an hour or 2 and then dissappear again for a month or 2... I dont blame them though coz MOST of them we were party animals and that was the bigest or only thing we had in commen.... they better show up at my baby shower, if not I know the frendship is over and I dont realy meen anything to them and that I shouldn't waist my time on them.... strongs lady's.... bff's will stay the rest you can replace....

To me all that means is they wasn't your friend from start. A true friend will be there regardless of the situation.

I have too. I only have one true girlfriend left sadly all the other ones got really flaky and just worried about parties and screwing around while I'm going through marriage issues at 19 and I have a baby due next month.

Yup, I Felt the same way, my friends have disappeared but I also had to realize, I can't party or drink anymore. And my baby is worth me not stressing over who is in my life or who's not.

Yep.. Then they all came around a while after I gave birth and disappeared when I got pregnant again! After that I gave up, I'm not letting those people back into my life period..
