[quote=Anonymous]If you consider her your friend still, you should tell her, as gently and as kindly as you can. Tell her you understand her pain, because infertility IS painful and you understand if she needs to withdraw for a little while to deal with things but don't make it a bigger deal than it is by involving your husband or other dramatic moves, it will just be a slap in the face and condescending. For what it's worth, I doubt that she didn't talk to you for a year because she was mad at you, it propably was just very hard for her to share your joy with what she's dealing with. This happens to friends all the time. Where she erred is not telling you that she needs to withdraw to deal with her feelings. Put yourself in her shoes and try to be empathetic but don't hide your joy or feel guilty about it. Congratulations![/quote]
