Jealous of my colleagues

I work in a team with 7 other women and at the moment I am finding it unbearable all they do is talk about their children or their pregnancies all day.
I am the only childless one and I guess I'm jealous when they talk about their children.
Sometimes it can be so bad I have to pop to the loo just to have a break from the constant chatter.
It's making me start dreading going into work.
AIBU?

How boring that they only talk about their kids.

That must be v tough for you OP, regardless of if you’re on a childless or child seeking path.
if you can, do try to keep it light and one step removed. Lots of ‘oh that would be fun/ isn’t he clever / oh wow!’
If not maybe confide in one of them to try and steer convo back to neutral ground. Failing that can you have headphones or work remotely?
