How to Strengthen Your Friendships and Boost Your Happiness During Big Life Changes
Learn the Surprising Power of Friendship: Because Hugging Your Couch Isn't Cutting It During Life's Quakes!
Oh, third trimester, we meet again! As you waddle gloriously into this final stretch of prenatal peppiness, you might notice a certain something. No, not your feet—those have been MIA since month five. I'm talking about your social life! While your growing belly steals the spotlight, it might feel like your social calendar is on a sabbatical. So, how about a little remap of priorities, where friend dates take center stage? Because honey, your pals might well be your best postpartum accessory!
The “We Just Gel” Effect
During major life shifts, like, um, bringing a human into the world, the power of friendship is the salve for any soul. Surround yourself with those who make you laugh, the ones who don’t care if you’re wearing pajamas that could pass as high-fashion. These friends will remind you of the kick-ass person you are, with or without sleep!
Your friends are the unpaid therapists who accept payment in gossip and giggles.
As your body
changes, so do your priorities, and so might your friendships. Nurture the ones that make you feel like a rockstar—even on days you resemble an air mattress. Trust me, there’s scientific proof that friendships boost happiness and even health. It’s not all about prenatal vitamins, darling!Social Butterflies Helping You Fly
Now, let's talk logistics: Who can resist those movie nights with fellow moms-to-be dissecting the real drama behind diaper rash creams? Or perhaps coffee dates where you barely touch the ground because you’re laughing so hard you defy gravity (the most cardio you’ll do on four hours of sleep)! Embrace these interactions because they serve as mini-vacations from the sometimes overwhelming world-of-what-will-baby-eat.
Friendship is like a designer bag: supports you, holds your world, and makes you look good!
And let's not forget, friendships don’t just slide you into serenity during your pregnancy—they’re still there cheering you on postpartum. Once the little bundle of everything arrives, your time might be tighter than your pre-maternity jeans, but here’s your reminder: Relationships can function more like a crockpot than an instant pot, if you catch my drif

Wrapping Up the Friendship Fiesta
So here’s the deal: Life transitions, like creating life or rocket-launching post-birth, are easier when you let folks in. Your friends are your lifeguards in rocky waters, reminding you to float before you falter.
