Right, I know that I am being petty and irrational here, but I would really appreciate some advice on how to get my head straight!
I'm 10 weeks pregnant, it took 8 months of ttc and one early mc to get here, which I found difficult. I'm am very worried about this pregnancy but trying to keep positive and am really looking forward to telling people our news at the end of Feb after the scan.
Last night, my DH's best friend announced that his wife is expecting around two weeks before me. I have a difficult relationship with her, we are very different people but for some reason I have taken this news really hard.
I feel that all the excitment for us has gone, that they've stolen our thunder with our group of friends. They haven't even been married a year and apparantly got pregnant 'a bit quicker than they were expecting'. They always seem to have the better house, the better car and now she will be doing all the baby things just a little bit earlier than me.
Ahhhh - I don't want to feel this way, I was up all night thinking about it. I want to be happy for the both of us. Any thoughts?
