For the mamas with no friends, what do you do when your birthday comes around? My birthday is next week and I don’t have any plans because I don’t have anyone to go with

I make plans with my kids. I have friends, but we all have lives and kids and work.
I go to the zoo or aquarium or splash pad.
I am happiest when my kids are happy, so that’s how I celebrate.

Literally whatever you want- the live you’d give another you give yourself! Go to a meal, have a service done somewhere and grab you favorite dessert. Today I sat in the snowcone store alone and ate my snowcone inpeace and loved it. We have to normalize enjoying time with ourselves- it’s your bday do you and enjoy every second! Do all the things or just a few but enjoy- happy bday! 
Do the things you like or want to do!

I live it like it’s just another day. 
Whatever I want. A great birthday for me would consist of a quiet solo breakfast, a few hours of antique store wandering without feeling hurried, an afternoon nap. Than a shower and get dressed up and treat myself to a ridiculously rich dinner. Bring dessert home and spend the evening on my couch with a tea and a book.
happy birthday to me

Happy Birthday 
my birthday is coming up and I don’t go anywhere as you get older birthday’s are just another day
I plan something with my kids but I have no problem going to a movie by myself 
Sit back in a lounge seat with a cocktail & snacks & enjoy (depends what your cinema has)
Go to a restaurant that you like and go see a movie take yourself out on a date 
order a dessert so you have a little something sweet for your birthday or take yourself to buy a new outfit or maybe to get a mani-pedi something that makes you feel good about yourself happy early birthday to you I hope you enjoy your day

Honestly I just hang out with my kids. Mine is just under 2 weeks away and that’s what I’m going to be doing. I might get a cake for after dinner but that will be about all of the celebrating there will be.

Get your favorite food n watch your favorite shows!
I always try to plan something fun with my kids and nieces and nephews. We made it a little tradition to have pizza and cake all the kids love to sing happy birthday to the grown ups
I take the kids to the Dollar Tree and let them each buy 1 thing for me or make me something creative at home or both, I buy myself a new dress or outfit, then we usually stay home and the kids make me whatever I want for dinner unless my parents take us out to dinner, then cake and ice cream at home… we don’t have a lot of money, but we have a lot of love
Just spend the day with my kids
Go to your favorite restaurant, have a yummy drink and mingle in with ppl… might make some new friends… A spa day is fun too! Have fun and happy birthday! It would be nice if we lived close by! I would go out with you! Enjoy!

I do things with my children. It’s pretty much just another day for me. I can’t even remember the last time I actually did something for my birthday

Make a list of 5 or 10 things you would love to do but never do them. Cut up each one and put in a box. Shake them up and pick one. DO IT!

I’ve never been celebrated. No one has ever made a big deal about my birthday so I just don’t do anything at all.

Wear a button that says “It’s my birthday!” and people will wish you a happy birthday all day & maybe do nice things for you (free dessert at the restaurant, waive fees/fines, hold open the door).

Time for u yo start meeting people
Make myself a cake and watch Netflix or Hulu and order myself whatever dinner I want. Since I have a child we just chill at home as he calls it. (He’s 15 btw)
It’s hard not having many friends or any that actually care about your birthday. My birthday is 3 days after Christmas so it’s just a normal day for me. If my birthday was in the summer like yours I would do a day trip to the beach and find a nice place to eat at/get some drinks.
I don’t celebrate my birthday.
I order pizza get a cake let the kids have fun all day eat the pizza and when it comes to cake i light the candles and let them sing happy birthday they love it even though im bringing it to them and i cant eat sweets because it literally hurts my stomach (so i only buy a small one for them to share ) and they love it i even bought one of those brownie desserts one time for the kids from pizza hut and put candles in that they loved it because they feel they were apart of my birthday to make it special even though i bought it all i let them decide how the day was gonna be to “surprise me” lol those have been the most special birthdays ive had❤️
Birthdays are overrated 
who wants to celebrate getting older after 29

I usually just get out in nature and disappear from the world for spiritual purposes
Honestly. I think the last time i did anything special for my bday was my sweet 16. My friends planned a suprise party for me. It kinda went downhill a bit cuz the one who was doing the planning got arrested the day of the party 
. I didn’t do anything for my 18th. I was pregnant for my 21st. As a kid i had one or two birthday get togethers. So bdays just are another day for me. If u want to do something but have no one that can celebrate with u, than have a “you” day. Go get ur nails / hair /ect done. Do something u love but don’t have time to do.
I go out to eat at a nice place.

I always celebrate mine with my kids and parents. I don’t have friends either!
Me and my kids will make a cake together and we do fun things with the kids its just another day really I dont mind I’ll always hang with my kids on my birthday as they are my world 
This past year, my boyfriend and I took my kids to the beach to go shopping and to have lunch.
Then my gmom bought me a birthday cake so we went to her house after we got home.
Make your own plans, something you want to do.
I actually celebrate with my kids and hubby. That’s all. Cut a cake and a simple dinner with just us.
I’m going to London for a day on my own which will include buying my favourite luxury handmade chocolates and meeting my favourite author at a Meet and Greet. I’m going to enjoy having a child-free day to myself.
Go get a pedicure, treat yourself to lunch, get a cake. Any little thing to make your day a little special. Happy birthday to you!

Get creative ,have a happy birthday 
My birthday is tomorrow, and I’m just having a little outing with my husband and 3 year old. I don’t find my birthday overly exciting anymore, but just make it a day to spend with family.
Do something you like. Take yourself to dinner at a restaurant you love. Buy yourself a gift that no one else knows you want. Go see a movie. Pamper yourself. It is perfectly fine! Happy Birthday!

Do things with your kids or grankids or your other half or jusy have a day and Pamper yourself get some of your fav wine (if you drink) and some.of your fav chocs and flowers and and snuggle up and watch uour most fav movie order your fav take away etc or take a drive to your fav place for the day and enjoy it
What is a birthday? I am not having any more. You treat yourself, do something for yourself that you would not normally do like get a massage.
Girl same boat. Spent day with my mom and sister. I miss going out with friends…
Celebrate yourself, take yourself to do something you enjoy. If you enjoy your family go with them, if you crave alone time appreciate yourself by yourself. Go out with your partner if that’s what you want. Make yourself a priority and what you want. Its okay to treat yourself if you can and have the chance
i haven’t celebrated my birthday with anything more than “mom chooses her birthday dinner (& cooks it of course lol) and the kids and hubby light candles on a cake (that i baked or bought myself) and sing me happy birthday and that’s what we have for dessert.”
I’m always with my kids and husband. But if you are all alone. Go pamper yourself. Get a pedi or a facial etc.
I hang out at home with the kids. They made a big deal about it this year made cards drew pictures, helped daddy pick out treats, and my husband made me dinner. They’re my only friends lmao. I’m cool with it. I have friends in other states I still talk to.
No celebrating mine 
my job has mandatory over time for 7 weeks out of the year, my birthday is 1 week into that time.
I really don’t go anywhere or do anything at all
