It's not nice, but I just can't help it
I just found out that my SIL's sister is PG and is due the same EXACT day I would have been due. I am happy for her, but I am embarrassed to admit it stung. I feel jealous, sad and a little bitter all at the same time. I heard the news from my SIL who knew I was PG, knew I had mc and knew that was my EXACT due date. It wasn't necessary for her to tell me right now. I just had the mc a week and a half ago and even though I was only 5 wks it still hurt....I never see her sister, couldn't she give me some time.
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest......

Re: It's not nice, but I just can't help it
That seems really insensitive of her to just drop it on you....she definitely could have given you a little time to work through your own situation.
Was she at least sympathetic when she told you? Or did she just tell you in normal conversation like your m/c hadn't even happened?

No she just announced it to myself and my in-laws who don't even know about the mc which made it even harder and more awkward for me.

Re: It's not nice, but I just can't help it
I was preggo and about to share my news the same day my SIl lost hers. I held out a few weeks. Mine is turning 2 next month and they would have been 3 months apart. Its hard...ya never know what the right thing to do is. Since then she has had 2 more. We are surrounded by tons of midgies...LOL
Keep your chin up...it will happen again

Re: It's not nice, but I just can't help it
I am so sorry you were hurt. If someone hasn't gone through the loss of a pg or baby - they really just don't know what to say or when is a good time to say it.
I wish she would have given you a little bit more time and been more sympathetic to your feelings
