XPost: does this make me a bad person?
My SIL came over last night and told us she is pregnant with her second child.
The way she told us was really cute, my niece lifted up her shirt a little and pointed and said "mommy baby" i couldn't tell if she was joking so i looked at her and said are you pregnant and she said yes.
I'm very happy for her, don't get me wrong. But i couldn't wait for her to leave because I couldn't stand to be happy next to her. She didn't even try, she just got pregnant, same with her first daughter.
DH knew i was down but there really wasn't anything he could do to make me feel better.
I don't want to take away from her joy but its going to be hard pretending i'm so happy when she is going to be a constant reminder of something i want so bad but can't seem to achieve.
this isn't even a rant...i guess i just had to get it out...

Re: XPost: does this make me a bad person?
Totally normal feelings. I would just try to push those feelings to the side when you're around her. I know it's hard. I had a baby shower 2 weeks after my first PG ended in a loss at 12 weeks and it was soooo hard but know you're time will come also and you always have us to vent to

completely normal to feel that way!!! Literally the day before I got my BFP last week a co-worker announced their pregnancy and I was feeling angry.....and jealous (even though I work w/ the husband not the wife!!), but still I was feeling bitter.....it's very natural to feel the way you do

Honestly seem to be feeling that way a lot lately since everytime I turn around someone seems to be pregnant. I think its normal.

That's completely normal and it doesn't make you a bad person. Your day will come.

Re: XPost: does this make me a bad person?
I feel that way myself. I have a couple of "constant reminders" in my life, I was pregnant with them and now I am not. My feelings have been all over the place about it and I am mostly avoiding them at this point. 
Hopefully one day I can get back to being excited and happy right alongside my "constant reminders". You are not alone in your feelings!
