Friend is pregnant w/4th!

So I just found out that my very fertile friend is pregnant with her 4th!  Her 3rd isn't even a year old yet...he will be in May.  I'm so happy for her but I have to admit very jealous that she can get pregnant so easy.

  • I think it is totally normal to feel that way. I have some very fertile friends also and it can be hard. But hopefully your IVF will work and you can be pregnant with her. Positive energy your way!

  • This is my SIL... every year she was pregnant before her littlest's first birthday... four kids this way!  My littlest nephew's 1st b-day was a couple weeks ago and I was dreading another announcement, but she seems to have broken her streak!  I'm glad because that announcement may have broken me.  And I know she hated having to tell me each year, knowing it wasn't happening for me.  I say take some time to be down about it in private and get it out of your system, and try your best to be happy for her.  *hugs*

    Thank you IVF for our little miracles!!
  • I completely know how you feel--happy for (and a little jealous of) your friend, sad that it's not you yet, and a little guilt over feeling the jealousy.  There should be a name for that combination of emotions...

    Ditto this, lol!  My SIL's third kid, my nephew who's 2 1/2 now, looks just like my husband as a baby... everyone comments on it.  He is a little thicker whereas SIL and her DH and their other 3 kids are all skin & bones.  DH & I have some meat on our bones to say the least.  I always kid that we could take him and no one would be the wiser that he wasn't truly ours.  ;-)
