i hate feeling jealous

I hate feeling jealous.  One of my best friends in the world had a baby boy today.  I have to confess I have been jealous of her throughout her entire pregnancy.  First of all, she got pregnant on her first "try" -- literally they decided to stop preventing and 2 weeks later they conceived.  No OPKs, nothing.  Then, her pregnancy was so easy -- no MS or yucky symptoms, baby measured perfectly at every u/s.  On top of that she didn't gain an ounce of weight anywhere but her belly.  I don't know all the details yet but it sounds like she had the perfect labor, too.  The part that hurts the most, though, is that she named him the name that I was going to name the baby I miscarried.  Obviously she couldn't have known that because I never told anyone the name, but it honestly feels like a slap in the face.  I am of course happy for her that she has a healthy baby boy, but mostly I feel jealous. And I hate that.  Hopefully in a couple of days I will feel better but right now I just want to cry...thanks for listening

  • ugh me too! My sister had her third baby today (on my son's first birthday) and I want to feel nothing but SO HAPPY. And I am jealous and annoyed she stole our day. WTH is wrong with me??? She is the same way as your friend. She gets pg right away and has super easy pregnancies. Oh how people take for granted to be able to choose how many children they will have. I am sorry you are down, know you are not alone
  • ((HUGS)) that sucks, but I would be jealous too, so don't beat yourself up over it.
