A few years ago I was lucky enough to get a great job overseas, with my OH and little girl taking the plunge and moving abroad.
Since then, two old friends, from different circles, who had excitedly shared the news of their first pregnancies with me while I still lived in the UK, happen to both be pregnant with their second child. My bugbear is that neither of them told me of their second pregnancies, which I heard on the grapevine through other friends.
I'm now pregnant, but the cynic in me is telling me not to bother telling them my exciting news, since they couldn't be bothered telling me theirs!
Could it be that now I'm living abroad, absence makes the heart forget (the birthday cards and Christmas cards I send aren't always reciprocated)?
I just want to know whether I'm in my rights to be hacked off, or should I just move on and accept they're not as close friends as I thought? Don't get me wrong, I'm under no illusion that friends come in varying degrees of closeness, but these are people who were really excited to share their news with me first time round!
It could of course be my pregnancy hormones playing up!!
