[quote=Anonymous]I got pregnant on my first try in my 20s and subsequent pregnancies. I had no idea how many women struggle with infertility until my friend went through IVF. I learned a lot from her. She backed off from our friendship for a while during my second pregnancy (which I understand). There were things that felt painful to her that had nothing more to do with me than existing with a pregnant belly, so I accepted that for a season we could text funny memes totally unrelated to children. The flip side of this is that just as she is a side character in the story of your life, you are one in hers. Things that are totally innocuous to her might feel painful to you because you are living totally different stories. It’s better to assume the best about people we love. Sometimes it’s a good exercise to imagine yourself in someone else’s life, with their worries and concerns and sorrows and joys.[/quote]
