Hallo Hayley. I am glad you have found the forum and hope it makes you feel less lonely. I live in Turkey but am not married to a Turkish man, I know quite a few girls who are though and they too feel lonely at times, especially Christmas. Why do you not form a club of some sort amongst yourselves so that you can help each other with advice and maybe organise little social things and a mother and toddlers group? It is difficult being a new mum at times and must be harder in a foreign country. All the best.
