Starting to get 'those' kind of looks

[Marley&Me]

Ok so my best friend is moving to W.A, I'm totally devastated, but it's what she needs right now. Last night we went around to see her for the last time as she left today. When DH and I arrived there were two other friends there, one who is having a c-section with her second tomorrow, and the other had her 9 week old son there. When I saw their cars out the front I was a bit disappointed because I really wanted to spend the evening with my best friend and talk about her and her plans. Not discuss how big the other friends belly is and how cute the 9 week old is, I was already upset as I will not see my friend for a long time as of today.
So amongst all the baby chit-chat I noticed the other girls started looking uncomfortable around me. They were giving me the 'I'm so sorry for you' look that I have been noticing A LOT lately. These girls know the basics about our situation and they are friends, but I just felt so crap. And to make matters worse they are all younger than me and on to there second child. I know they probably didn't realise, but I did. I'm tired of getting pitty looks from everyone, even my own mother has a desperateness in her eyes when I see her. She so badly wants to be a grandmother and I feel bad because I can't give it to her.
Does anyone else have to deal with these 'pity' looks all the time? Or am I overreacting?

You're not overreacting. I get it all the time & I have a child! I'm sorry you didn't get to spend one on one time with your gf. Perhaps you can link up via Skype one night?

*massive hugs*

before we got our bfp I got the looks from my parents all the time. they so desperately want to be grandparents and it was my choices in life that was making it not happen for them.

I'm sorry your still going through this journey, really hope you get to the next chapter soon.

Thanks girls, it sucks doesn't it? I never noticed until recently and I wish I never did! Thank you for the replies xx

Some people are uncomfortable because they sense you need comfort or empathy but because they haven't walked in your shoes they are unsure of how to do this. I understand why.

Anyway yes LTTTC sucks balls. Then it sucks balls again.
