I lost touch with a lot of my carefree childless friends when I started spewing forth sprogs. I think it's because as a parent you change and your time is more limited, so people who don't have kids don't understand and might get a bit upset if you're not as attentive as usual. Don't worry, you make up for it by getting more friends who do have kids. Swings and roundabouts x x
