It's been hard for me when friends have had babies and I've been waiting longer than they've been trying. But, I just know that God has a plan for us and even if our wait is a bit longer it will happen. <br /><br />I try not to let my friends know about those jealous feelings. Instead I just cry at home. It's been much better for me lately though...I just pray about it a lot. I think that you are doing what you need to do...just keep being sensitive. In the end these are her feelings and you can't do anything about them. She's the one that has to do something. And I say that in the nicest way. It's hard...I know!Mrs. Chapman's 2nd Grade Classhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09885141816751077141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-1228486230797137172010-11-28T20:17:54.406-08:002010-11-28T20:17:54.406-08:00He is ABSOLUTELY adorable.... you are a very lucky...He is ABSOLUTELY adorable.... you are a very lucky Momma and I'm glad you are enjoying yourself!!

And her knowing that you're aware of it should make a big difference. It's quite possible, though, that you won't talk quite as much...until she hopefully has a baby of her own.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07335915683875653154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-80735234698274767142010-11-24T08:43:59.915-08:002010-11-24T08:43:59.915-08:00J is so adorable!!

It was so much easier to be happier for them if they were supportive of me.ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09150067629614839175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-21100825496662242002010-11-24T07:33:35.881-08:002010-11-24T07:33:35.881-08:00I agree with an above comment...that everyone infe...I agree with an above comment...that everyone infertile or not should understand what it has taken for you to get to where you are today and should be happy for you no matter where they are at in the journey and as long as your are still supporting the other who remain IF in your life then things are all good...and yes Im sure there will be times when its hard for other IF to visit your blog or comment but I have found as long as you still support your past that they will respect and be happy for you:)<br /><br />Little Baby J is so cute by the way!!!Nick and Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14537407923580887602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-47784529899789894472010-11-23T22:23:17.395-08:002010-11-23T22:23:17.395-08:00Congratulation on your beautiful baby!!

But, sometimes we have to hide, and hope others understand, which you do. So share, and let her know you know what it's like. Give her resources to help. But don't stop enjoying this new path and journey :)Kakunaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09680945395324128951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-22033341681124031862010-11-23T15:08:03.425-08:002010-11-23T15:08:03.425-08:00Here from ICLW.

...J is so cute! I'm glad things are going well.<br /><br />And about your friend--it's wonderful that you are trying to be sensitive and find a balance with her. But at the same time, you can only do so much. She has to deal with her situation in her own way, and she will probably deal with some things differently than how you did/would. <br /><br />Maybe you could let her know that she will still be your friend, even if she needs to take a break from close contact for a while? I know you want to support her, but she might need some space, and giving it to her, guilt free, could be a kind of support, too.<br /><br />Of course, I don't know the situation any more than what you've posted, so that's just my two cents. Feel free to ignore me if I'm totally off base with this.Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05614983212919126632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5150682924297950441.post-92047190216645107662010-11-23T12:11:05.209-08:002010-11-23T12:11:05.209-08:00I am so glad that things continue to go well with ...I am so glad that things continue to go well with J! He is such a cutie. I'm sorry that you are having a rough time with your friend, though. I think you are doing a great thing by trying to protect her, but you also can't help but get excited. It has to be a difficult position. I hope that things improve. Keep us posted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
