Sorry, that’s really tough to hear, you want to be happy for her but knowing she’s not even happy about it must be horrendous to hear xxx

Its 3rd person close to me to get pregnant by accident im suppose to see her in a couple of weeks now i feel like cancelling

That’s really tough. Im sorry to hear you’re in that position. I come across a lot of unwanted/unplanned pregnancies in my work and really struggle with the unfairness of it all. Sending lots of love to you and keeping my fingers crossed your time will come soon. Also it’s okay to cancel if you don’t feel up to seeing your friend. Do what is right for you. You might not be the right person to support her at the moment and that’s okay. You need to make decisions to keep yourself well and okay. X

This kind of thing always happens to me too; you’re not alone 😍 It’s always a sister in law whose been trying to get pregnant for one month (instead of my nine years) or a friend who never has periods but can have two kids naturally.

Sometimes I avoid them. Sometimes I front it out and pretend I’m ok. Sometimes I do end up ok. Make the decision they feels right for you. Big hugs. xx

Oh hun -I’ve been through this with a couple of people - it feels like such a slap in the face.

The good thing for me in what you’ve said though is how much your friend cared about your feelings - and although it’s hard to hear - totally the best thing for your friendship that she’s been honest with you & doesn’t lie about being happy.

Doesn’t help your situation though, it’s so hard watching it happen so easily for other people. Wish I could say more to make it better xxx

I can understand how hard this must be for you. It's very considerate of your friend. However, she would never be able to understand this feeling of struggle. I can very much relate to you. I hope things get better. Just stay positive an strong. Keep trying and never lose hope. Sending baby dust your way.
