When your friend gets pregnant...again, and you can’t

Mo

Ladies, I need guidance and words of support.

I’m literally sitting at my desk with tears in my eyes.

I’ve been emotional AF for the past three days. My period is due anytime between a week and a week and a half away.

One of my good friends had her little baby boy 3 months ago. He’s adorable. But she wasn’t dating the guy seriously until she was pregnant. And...well...she just told me she’s pretty sure she’s pregnant. Again.

I’m trying to stay calm but my heart is breaking. My husband and I have been married a year and three months and we’ve been TTC for 10+ months. And my friend knows this and she knows we’re about to do <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> if I can’t get pregnant this time (I’m hopeful we can after our specialist did an HSG test on me and my husband and I have both been cleared as “normal”).

Does anyone else feel almost angry and jealous when a friend tells you they’re pregnant...AGAIN?! Again!!! How can she be pregnant again?! I mean...I know how. I get the whole biology thing. She stopped breast feeding 2 weeks after he was born and hasn’t gone back on birth control but...WTF?!?! I’m married and my body is apparently totally healthy but I can’t get pregnant?!

I’m just feeling like the universe is so cruel.
