My best friend and I were pregnant together. I just had my baby less than two weeks ago and she had hers either late Thursday or on Friday. Since this was my third pregnancy and her first, she needed my support more than I needed hers. Her pregnancy was a little scary in the beginning, and I was there for her every single time she called and needed to talk or cry. I was there to answer every question, compare symptoms, we talked about how our kids were going to be best friends, etc. etc. until the very end of our pregnancies.

Anyways, I know she went to the hospital Thursday. We had been texting all day, she had been having contractions. After I didn’t hear back for a while I asked if she was in the hospital. And she responded “Yes ♥️ they say I’m going to have a baby!” And that’s the last I’ve heard from her. I reached out to her maybe once or twice on Friday, just to let her know I was thinking of her. No response. It finally got to a point that I was legitimately worried something had gone wrong, so I texted her husband, “Hey, please don’t tell me any details if you guys aren’t ready to share, I just want to know if (Insert friends name here) is okay.” He responded with a picture of the baby and his “stats”. Since then I’ve texted her a couple times, and no response. I’ve called once, no answer. I am totally understanding of giving people space, and i know having a newborn is busy, I am just feeling a little hurt that my very best friend hasn’t reached out to me about the birth of her son, let alone responded to my texts when I say congratulations or wish her well. I shared my excitement with my last two pregnancies with her (I didn’t know her when i had my first), but I feel totally on the back burner with this.

Am i crazy for having my feelings hurt? I understand that it isn’t about me, it’s just so unlike her to just ignore or forget.
