Hi guys, I don't usually post here, but I need to get some advice, I hope you don't mind me intruding.
My best friend is struggling with TTC, it's coming up to a year now. She really wants to have kids, and is very involved in her church, where a lot of young couples are having families.
I had my son in 2003, and am now pregnant with number 2. I just told her about it, and I feel awful!
I want to share this special time with her, but I don't want her heart to ache anymore. She is my sons god mother, and my closest friend. I am trying to be guided by her, and am not saying any of those dumb things, like "just relax" etc.
I empathised with her, and said it must be so frustrating to see those around her getting pregnant, and all I am saying to her is "You guys are in my prayers" and "I know you'll get there one day, you guys will be great parents."
What else can I say or do? I don't want to feel like I cant share this with her, or that I have to apologise for being pregnant, but at the same time, I want to be sensitive to her needs.
