How to Reconnect and Rekindle Beautiful Friendships After Life's Big Changes

Lost Touch with Your Besties? Here’s How to Go from Awkward Texts to Epic Reunions Without Needing an Instruction Manual!

Hey there, mama! Remember those wild, carefree days when your biggest worry was whether Friday's party would outdo Saturday's brunch? Fast forward a couple of years, 24 months postpartum actually, and now your Saturday peaks when you find time to sip lukewarm coffee before lunchtime. Motherhood is a beautiful ride, but let's get real—it can sometimes rear-end your social life!

Fret not, gorgeous. It's time to dust off your party dress—or whatever doesn't have a milk stain—and reconnect with your friends who probably wonder if you’ve joined a secret motherhood cult. Below, you’ll find steps to rekindle those fabulous friendships so your future weekends can include more than just Peppa Pig marathons.

Step 1: Acknowledge the Elephant in the Room

This is the time to tell your girls: "Hey, I know I disappeared into the vortex of nappies and nursery rhymes." There it is. You admit it, which is the first step to recovery—like saying, "Yes, I am a chocoholic" at dessert time. Texts, voicemails, or even a smoke signal should suffice!

"Adult friendships are basically two people saying, 'I haven't heard from you in forever!' over and over until one of you dies."

The beauty of true friendship? They get it. Life gets busy; but tr

ust me, they've been wondering how to reconnect as much as you. So, reach out and own it. After all, nothing says 'I love you' like sending them a meme about the chaos of toddler tantrums.

Step 2: Reschedule Those Plans that Got "Mom'd"

Remember all those plans you made and then inevitably had to cancel because "life"? Embrace the chaos and set a date for another get-together—this time with backup! Savvy moms schedule meetups, not just with each other but with a granny on standby for babysitting duties. Nothing screams excitement like getting a child-free hour to drink something 40% proof.

"The best part of adulthood is financial independence. The worst part is doing everything yourself & still asking for a mom break!"

Step 3: Spice It Up with Some Nostalgia

You’re about 64% likely to forget your friend’s favorite wine but never the embarrassing stories you share. So why not host a nostalgia night? Music, movies, the foods you loved—cue the Spice Girls! Go all out and make it an event to remember. After all, who needs adult escape rooms when you can recreate one with PhotoBox memories scattered on the living room floor?

"Why go for dinner and drinks only, when you can add 'trying to get the kids to bed on time for Granny' to your weekend plans?"

Having a night-in sounds like the perfect way to press pause on everything else, sit back, relax, and laugh till you snort tea out your nose. A hint for the bold: toss those Mum Tum Leggings on again—they're perfect for everything from bridge-building to TikTok dance mastering!

Step 4: Make New Memories—And Capture Them!

You've reconnected, you've laughed, and now it's time to ensure that you don't lose touch again. Document it all! Because if there aren’t any selfies, did it really happen? Use social media to your advantage and schedule the next meet-up right there and then.

Life is about balance—between motherhood and friendship; chaos and calm; excitement and relaxation. Be unapologetically you and share these experiences. You never know who you’ll inspire to reach out to their own lost BFFs.

"Remember, there's no such thing as too many group selfies, just as there's no such thing as too much chocolate!"

New friendships can also bloom from old roots. Don't forget to mix and mingle more frequently. Break free of the mundane by pulling your friends into new activities that let you all explore different facets of each other—because true friendship is like fine wine, it gets better with age.

Soft Conclusion & CTA

It all boils down to one simple truth: Initiate and embrace the weird, the awkward, and the wonderful moments this stage of life offers. Step forward with laughter, grace, and, most importantly, flexibility—you know, just like those delightful Mum Tum leggings!
