I just need a moment to vent. I’m so incredibly heartbroken while being excited. My best friend told me Boxing Day that she is pregnant, on her first try after coming off birth control. I cried like a baby when she told me with both excitement and a bit of sadness and jealousy. I hadn’t told her that we have been trying. I’m blessed that she’s sharing her journey with me but every update and message hurts me more.

Has anyone been in this situation? How have you pushed past your sadness to feel the joy and excited for your friend?
