She had a very traumatic ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage last year and has been struggling with depression ever since.
We've been best friends since we were 10. She has always been worried about trying to conceive because of a family history, so it's an anxiety that has always been there.
I have a DD who is 3 and when I was pregnant with her it wasn't as bad becaus although my BF was anxious about her ability to fall pregnant, she and her then BF were only just planning their wedding etc and didn't intent to try for at least another year.
She was thrilled when she got pregnant and then it ended horribly.
I have no idea how to tell her, I don't want to hurt her but I know it will. She has already come off Facebook and cut off friends who are insensitive and talk babies all the time.
She buys DD Xmas and birthday presents but never wants to see her. We speak almost everyday and see each other quite regularly but always alone or with friends. She hasn't asked how DD is since October. This makes me feel sad and a little bit resentful although I remind myself it's nothing compared to how she feels. I'm aware that's pretty selfish of me.
I was thinking of going round to her house and sitting down to tell her but don't know if I should do it another way so she can shout and ball without me there?
What on earth will I say?!
I am really happy to be pregnant and we are so excited, but this is all I can think about.
