To feel sad at pregnancy announcements?

I'm 27 with one child who I adore with all my heart. We will not be having another baby. I would really love another in a few years but there really is no chance at all of changing my partner's mind, even without everything else he only wanted one child to begin with. That was absolutely fine for me up until now.
Lately a lot of my friends have either just had a baby or have announced that they are pregnant. Although obviously I am happy for them I can't help but feel gutted that my future is already decided for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful for what I have and I know IABU because having one child was already set in stone but I can't shake this feeling! Has anyone else been through this and does it get better?

Yes and yes, it gets better. Takes time though...

Try and be a bit smug that you can have a decent night's sleep. The sleep deprivation is only beginning for others.
Sorry, know how you feel, was ttc but had to give up- age related but doesn't make it any easier.
