Those are ABSOLUTELY normal feelings. I have felt this way a hundred times. Been TTC for 2 years, have had 1 full year of treatment (including 3 IVFs) and every time I hear a new friend or relative is pregnant, I cry. In fact there are a few friends with newborns that I haven't even seen yet because it's too hard.
Please don't feel guilty. This is a VERY hard time. You need to do EVERYTHING for yourself right now. Don't worry about anyone else's feelings (except maybe your DH
).
Best of luck to you.
