Why can’t I be happy?

Question

So my sister had her baby today... 
When I announced to her that me and my partner were TTC #1 she had no intention of having anymore children... fast forward 3 months and yep... she announces baby #4.
She delivered her little one today just as AF arrived for me and ended cycle 16.
I have struggled to get excited during her entire pregnancy. Tbh I’ve been quite bitter (not that I ever let on to her as that’s awful!) am I a monster? Even now that she’s here I’m really struggling to deal with this. I love that she’s happy but seriously can it be my turn yet 😭

Answer

I just feel awful for the way I feel. I guess I’ll get over it eventually.
I think what hurts the most is that she apparently wasn’t even trying.
I don’t want to be that bitter person 😂 but I’m deffo her right now

Answer

I’m the same way. I’ve have 2 coworkers, a volunteer at my job, and a stepsister-in-law announce and I’ve been so depressed every time. My brother and his girlfriend had a close call and I literally started crying when he told me she was taking a test. My sister (who has been through the fertility process) sent me this thing the other day that said it’s okay to be upset about pregnancy announcements.

Answer

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with how you feel. Your feelings are valid. You can be happy for someone and still sad about your/the situation as well. I understand how you feel. My twin sister already had 2 kids and then when I got married and we said we were going to try for kids she then wanted another one too. We actually got pregnant at the same time. I had a miscarriage and she went on to have a healthy, now almost 2 year old. I would of course, never wish anything bad for her but it was hard for me to be super excited and stuff throughout her pregnancy. 
It will be your time soon. 🤞🏻 Keep your head up. 😊
