A close friend is expecting after 5 yrs worth of failed IVF. Her head and heart is all over the place and she admitted that she thought she'd feel happier now that she's finally expecting (20 weeks). However, she's almost constantly nauseas so, no appetite, fed up of friends and colleagues commenting on her bump (she has a very small gymnasts frame so rather tiny) but ultimately she cannot get her head around the fact that she's feels a failure for not conceiving naturally .
She's also trying to prepare herself for her babies being rushed to SCBU and not having them for herself immediately after birth.
Please help me try and support my friend - I'm at a loss at what to say. She's far from being th failure she thinks she is. I want her to try and enjoy this pregnancy as much as possible. She's come such a long way.
