I don't deal well with other people getting pregnant. I don't even need to know them very well for it to affect me and get me upset, tearful, anxious and make me want to avoid them for ever more. I have a wonderful DS who was conceived through IUI and would love to give him a brother or sister. My hormone levels are very low and although I am on the waiting list for treatment the chances are lower than before and as such I will receive fewer attempts. I don't know whether it is the longing for no2, or just the fact that I am unable to naturally conceive, that gets me so upset. Also I was so proud of being pregnant due to how difficult it had been to conceive (had a mc and them 18months of treatment!) that I feel oddly jealous of them just being pregnant.
