Need to vent!

My coworker just announced she's 2 months pregnant with her third child. I'm ashamed at how jealous and sad I am over it. I've been trying to conceive my first for nearly 2 years now. I told her congrats etc but deep down it hurts. She is constantly complaining and says things to the effect of "you don't understand" or "you don't know what it's like to have a family".

It will happen for us all. I'm just trying to stay healthy and of positive mind. Who knows maybe I will get a two for one special. (Twins)????

It's hard not to be jealous. I lost my baby on Monday and my friend who had so many issues getting pregnant just announced her pregnancy. I'm happy for her, but it sucks.

I f*** ing hate it when people say that stuff and I snap and say you no what I don't understand I have no idea but I've been trying to get pregnant for 2 years and would be more than happy to go through pregnancy complaint free so you should shut up and be thankful for that healthy baby.

You're mad that these mom's leave work early for their children..... and you're upset because you want to leave early for .... no reason ....? I didn't know having children was only good for leaving work early.. Am i getting that right, haha. Okay.

It's tough, having to pick up their slack makes it even more aggravating. For example, tomorrow I have to drive 2 hours out of my way, after work, to attend a work related meeting by myself. No other coworkers can go. At the same time I had plans but mine must not be as important.

Try not to be jealous hun. I deeply regret being jealous of my sister in law.

She announced she was pregnant with her 6th and the whole time I was super jealous, but a little happy.

She's currently going through a miscarriage at 16 weeks. And I feel terrible for how jealous I was. Guilt hit my hard.

That sucks. I don't have too much input (stay at home mom). But, I think when you do get pregnant and your child is here, you will understand more. It's difficult to see that now. But, you too will need to take off, leave early or Come in late. It happens. My fiancé (he has no bio kids, I have three from previous marriage) says he understands you! Before me, he was alone and people with kids were always leaving early, etc for some reason and he had to pick up the slack.

I'm sorry you're going through this!

Honestly if your feeling that alone I'd go look at other places for work. Your mental and physical health should be top priority hunny. Gl and hugs to youxx
