Thankful for my sister

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Just had a good hour-long chat with my sister, who is 8 months along and lives in...Australia. I saw her at 3 months for my wedding but haven't gotten to feel her baby kick or anything. I don't know what people did before Skype...at least I'm getting to see her belly grow, and she took me on a video tour of the nursery. I cried when she played the mobile!

This is her first, and I can't believe my baby sister is going to be a mommy...and I can't be there. We're going over there about a month after the birth though, so I have that to look forward to. She's talking me down off the ledge while I go through the trying and waiting thing. So I will have her for lots of my questions and to try everything out first!

    Very sweet.

    I'm thankful for my sister too. We are twins and she just had her first about 2 weeks ago after trying for 2 years.  I'm learning everything I need to know for prep through her and it's amazing

    That must be so hard!  My best friend lives 10 hours away and just gave birth about 3 weeks ago, and it KILLS me that I wasn't close to her for her pregnancy, and that I haven't met her LO yet.  I don't have a webcam, but I will definitely have to investigate.

    Congrats to your sister, and good luck to her for a quick labor and healthy baby next month!

    This post made me tear up a little bit. My sister is my best friend in the entire world. We've only been apart when she went off to college and I soon joined her (same college) about 3 years later. May sound crazy but she is definitely my right hand-girl.

    She knows we're trying and doesn't ask too many questions. When we had a BFP back in August (turned into a chemical pregnancy) she bought me a baby toy, What to Expect, and a card. I keep it in my closet, way in the back, ready to bring it out and give it to her if/when we get a BFP again.

    Anyway, we live about 5 minutes apart. She told me last week that her boyfriend (soon to be fiance - although she doesn't know yet) got his dream job offer and they're moving across the country in June. I'm so so sad. I can't imagine going through anything without her - especially having a baby. Not to discount my husband but you know.

    I can't handle it at all right now. Sisters are so special, its a bond I will treasure forever.
