Ugly thoughts following loss

I had a missed miscarriage in early 2022, I then fell pregnant with my rainbow baby in May 2022. I was extremely anxious during the first trimester and anxiety continued throughout my whole pregnancy and it was hard to be fully excited until she was here. I have suffered with ugly thoughts and feeling weird about others getting pregnant around me since the miscarriage and thought it would get better once I had my child but it hasn’t. A family member is pregnant and I’ve pretty much avoided her as much as possible throughout her whole pregnancy, I’m happy for her but I’m not at the same time. I hate feeling this way and worry that it’s wrong of me to do so as I have my rainbow then I also feel guilty towards my child because she was my second chance. Has anyone else who has gone through miscarriage experienced this too?
