Don't know if I should cry or laugh

Just spoke to my BFF for her 44th birthday today.  She knows we are about two weeks away from becoming parents.  With her third child she told me she was pregnant while I was going through a M/C.  It  was sad because our kids would have been 6 weeks apart.  Today for her birthday she told me she is now pregnant with #4.  Not planned, but knowing what I have been going through to become a parent she still sees it as a blessing.  Psyched we will have kids around the same age, but OMG, a bit frustrated and at the same time laughing that she will now have 4 kids ranging in age from 12 - newborn.

    Oh honey. I'm sorry. I know you are happy for her, but it is tough when fertiles get knocked up so easily. ::hugs:: Hopefully, it will get a little easier when you have your little one in your arms!

    I guess on the bright side your kids can play together someday ...  I know what you mean though, it's so darn easy for some people.  I would probably be both laughing and crying at this point.  (( Hugs )) 2 weeks to go, you're getting close!

    I would just love to take all the fertile-ness in the world and redistribute it. It seems there are so many surprise or unplanned pregnancies and so many infertiles like us; I mean, I don't think I should be God or anything but I would re-organize the fertility system if I were him because it seems a little lopsided.  ;-)

    Just kidding of course.  I would be laughing and crying if I were you.  ((hugs))  Hope the crying feelings soon give way to just laughter and you can enjoy raising your little ones together!
