[quote=Anonymous]Single nanny here...  I'm at the age now where if I ever do meet a man, it will be difficult to conceive.  My best friend had a baby 2 years ago, I am the god-mother a d was thrilled.  When she got pregnant with #2, I didn't even mean to distance myself but I did.  We live an ocean apart, but used to talk every day.  I maybe spoke to her once a month throughout her pregnancy.  I didn't mean to, but I avoided her.  I felt terrible but still kept avoiding her.  She sent me an email that she loved me and didn't want to lose touch, and I assured her I loved her and wanted to always stay in touch.  But I didn't.  It was so hard and I hated myself for not being a good friend.  She had the baby and we spoke a couple times, then the baby was diagnosed with a heart condition when he was a few weeks old.  Something clicked and I went back to being her friend.  I apologized profusely and told her I didn't mean to be distant, she understood and we now talk every day again, and I'm flying 16 hours to meet him next month.  He'll already be 6 months old, but better late than never.

I'm so grateful my friend took me back.  I didn't mean to distance myself but it was so hard.  On a side note my boss is struggling with secondary infertility, I've been with them since their son was born 5 years ago.  I know it's hard for her to see her friends have babies #2 & 3. [/quote]
