The Secret to Deepening Friendships While Navigating Life Changes
Unlock the Mystery: How to Upgrade Your Friendships Without Requiring a Master's in Mind-Reading!
Ah, the first trimester—a magical time filled with excitement, nausea, and the pesky habit of telling people at work that you "just ate something funky." But hold onto that ginger ale, my friend, because while your belly’s doing a Cirque du Soleil routine, your friendships might be doing some acrobatics too!
Your friendships are about to hit the next level, baby! Think Game of Thrones, minus the backstabbing. You're about to upgrade your squad to the ultimate BFF experience—no psychic powers required to read the room.
Whether you're whispering your baby news to your lifelong confidante or dodging endless unsolicited advice from your coworkers who fancy themselves parenting pros, strengthening your friendships during this crazy time can be as mystifying as finding shoes that still fit.
The Art of 'Nesting' Beyond Your Closet
Remember the time you went on a five-hour Netflix binge instead of laundry? Well, nesting in the first trimester isn’t just about rearranging nursery furniture. Guess what? It involves friends! As you're sprouting a tiny human, this is a time to encourage friends to come to you—for those deep heart-to-hearts, spontaneously ridiculous TikTok dances, or perhaps judging the highs and lows of reality TV.

Your snack table is the catwalk, and you, darling, are the sassy snacker.
