I have a much older sister who has no children and probably never will. She doesn't want them and everyone in the family agrees it would be best. She is irresponsible, self-centered and has had a drug addiciton for more than half of her life.
I had a nightmare last night that my much older sis got pg. By the time I found out about it she was probably about 8 months along. I take one a look at her and throw my hands in the air in frustration! I remember thinking "wtf" and walking away feeling defeated.
I'm sure it's got some sort of connection to my younger sister's pg. I guess I just feel like everyone around me is getting pg and having babies without any difficulties. It'd be nice if I could at least catch a break while I snooze!

Yup. I don't like it! It wasn't a good night's sleep
Btw...how are you feeling? You had your stitches removed yesterday, right?

Ugh that would be horrible. I'm glad it's just a dream. I know you're being so nice about it but it must be SO hard to see your younger sister pregnant.
I hope it's you very soon.
It is hard. I'm trying to be selfless. Some days I'm successful and some days I fail. I went with her to IKEA yesterday to pick up some wine glasses while she picked up items for my nephew's nursery. I kept stealing glances at her adorable baby bump. It made my heart ache. I want one too

You're very strong. It's so hard to be involved in friends'/colleagues' conversations about their pregnancies and LO's - and it's so hard to see those bumps. it must be even harder with a sister. And you're being so supportive.
I'm sorry your heart is aching so much.
