I'm 7.5 months pregnant. Today we met up with a friend of DH's, her husband and their six month old. They've just moved to our area (but DH has known her a long time) so I've only met her once before, long before either of us were pregnant. She had a horrendous, horrendous pregnancy - hyperemesis, with regular hospitalisation. My pregnancy has been pretty physically easy so far (it's not been entirely great psychologically for various reasons, but that's not something I really talk about in real life). As soon as she arrived she asked how I was feeling so I said 'oh, I'm fine' and she seemed pissed off by that, and repeated it back incredulously. This continued throughout the day - it was almost like she felt I was constantly rubbing how well I am and how much I can do in pregnancy in her face - so when I produced quite an elaborate lunch she made a big deal about how she couldn't have done that while pregnant (to which I said 'but you were seriously ill and I'm not!' - which I thought was the right thing to say but clearly wasn't), etc. She talked a lot about pregnancy and babies but I felt I was constantly making her more upset/pissed off - I imagine she feels she missed out on a happy pregnancy experience and I have lots of sympathy for that. But I felt like there was no right way - she seemed really bothered by the idea that my pregnancy has been trouble-free, and I would guess she thought I was being smug, but it would surely be even more annoying if I'd started harping on/moaning about the few physical issues I have had as if they were in any way comparable to the completely miserable nine months she had? So, 1) AIBU to think that there wasn't really any way for me to get it right here? and 2) if I'm BU please help me to figure out a better way to handle it for when we next meet up!
