How to tell a possibly jealous friend?

Question

I have 2 best friends, we all started TTC around the same time. Me and another have no health issues and both found out last month. The other friend has a line of fertility issues but she wants a baby more than anyone I've ever met. Us two preggos want to tell her but the question is how? I know she won't stay mad forever but I don't want to hurt her feelings. Advice?

Answer

Tell her individually and treat it like its a joy for you and her. Don't apologize or act sad for her. If you guys are super close make her feel apart of this baby's life. If she feels apart of it, it won't hurt as much. And it's not hurt that you are pregnant it's hurt and sadness that she isn't.

Answer

As some one who had been ttc for three years, the best thing to do is just tell her. Know that she has to go through a  grieving process  too. She's going to be mad and sad and jealous, but just be there when she's ready. Dont say any of the cliche stuff of your time will come when it's right... Blah blah blah, it just makes its worse. I was most appreciative when my friends were just up front and honest with me.
