Starting a family in the 30s often leads to friendships with younger moms who offer valuable insights and understanding. The transition into parenthood can be disorienting, especially after a decade of independence. Although older friends are knowledgeable, younger mothers relate to the challenges faced. This bond becomes essential, as younger moms not only provide advice but also friendship that helps to feel youthful. The experience of becoming a parent at a later stage can still lead to a fulfilling and supportive community of friends.
Becoming a parent did knock me off balance at first. I know now, becoming a parent is a shock for everyone, but after a decade of independence, I found it incredibly disorienting.
These friends were a wealth of knowledge, and I did my best to draw from it. But there was a catch - these moms were no longer sleep-deprived zombies.
Younger moms became my lifeline. These moms have since become lifelong friends, and - added benefit - they keep me feeling surprisingly young, as well.
I started my family in my 30s, which means younger moms have become my allies - and friends.
