A very close friend of mine is pregnant . I'm happy for her because she's been trying for 3 years to have #3 (it took her 5 years to get pregnant with #2). Se had 2 early m/c s along the way. At the same time I'm feeling a little sad . We've been trying together for the past 2 years, and we were supporting each other, especially when faced with comments from others. Now I'm the only one TTC in our circle of friends. It feels really lonely

Have any of you been in the same situation (duh! I know many have) where you feel really happy for someone, but really sad that you're not pregnant with them like you were dreaming? The worst part is that it will draw people's attention again to ttc, and they will start asking questions and making comments about me not expecting yet.

I definitely feel that way, and it seems like someone in my family or one of my friends is ALWAYS pregnant. It makes it so hard to keep my hopes up some times, but I'm always happy for the other person.

Oh yeah been there! It's hard because you ARE happy for them but sad for yourself, especially since you know how cool it'd be if you could have gotten pregnant together... but life never works that way!

I've been there as well, though we weren't TTC "together" the way you two were. Our relatives are popping out babies left and right and all we can do is watch and listen to the comments.
