Apology help

Emmie

So I got to see my big brother, sister in law and 2 year old niece this weekend! I was so excited to see them and talk with my sister in law. You see we have both been trying to get pregnant and I just saw a specialist, well when they got there my niece was wearing a T-shirt that said “soon to be big sister”. My response was not great... I just started crying and feeling sorry I guess for myself. Now I am really excited for them and I want them to really want them to know that I told them but it still felt uncomfortable. So any advice on apology ideas? I feel like an asshole

just be honest. tell them you're really happy for them and emotions got in the way because you're struggling on your TTC journey. I'm sure they'll understand.

Be open and honest. I could understand them initially being hurt by your reaction but if you sit down and explain it to them, let them know your struggle and pain.. they'll forgive and move on.
