To say my friend is hugely unfair here?

Bit of background for you -

I've been TTC for over 2 years really, 13 months ago I had a miscarriage but before that we were trying for a long time. I did talk to someone I know through work, of whom is also a GP about 3 months ago. She said my 'Your GP won't do anything, just relax - you're so young' Confused

Monday I'm off to the GP to see what can be done. I'm only 21 and never thought I'd be here.

Friend said to me today "I know how you feel, TTC for a long time is so tough, especially for me because I've got a little one and I'm unlikely to be able to give him a sibling. I know full well my condition is so much worse now". Isaid it must be difficult for you knowing the stress involved for trying again. I kept my mouth shut any further.

AIBU to say she was insensitive? Am I correct in saying that although it must be so sad for her, surely she's better off since she's actually a Mother?

It took her 7 months to conceive her DC with PCOS, she fell naturally.

Sorry if I sound really inconsiderate just because she has a DC. I don't think it's easy at all when you'll struggle to fall pregnant, regardless of the amount of little ones you have Sad

As someone who struggled for 8 years to have my second child (10 year gap between my two) I agree with you OP.

I always counted my blessings at having one, even though I wanted another so badly.

Mistress unless I've missed it her friend didn't say her situation was worse, she said her condition (PCOS) was worse.

From the OP:

"I know how you feel, TTC for a long time is so tough, especially for me because I've got a little one and I'm unlikely to be able to give him a sibling. I know full well my condition is so much worse now"
