I miscarried in April this year and thought that I was coping really well with it. However, four friends are now pregnant and while I'm really happy for them I was shocked at my reaction. I was unable to make eye contact with one friend because I felt jealous and ashamed that I was jealous. One friend has asked to meet up and I'm not sure I can cope with spending time with her as she loves being pregnant.
No immediate plans to try again but I would like to try next year, I'm feeling broody now and know it is sensible to wait as I'm getting married in December and have a big honeymoon booked. I know I am so lucky but I can't help feeling down. Does anybody have any advice on how to deal with pregnant friends without being rude or insensitive to them?
