Amy (big hugs).

It is often hard to hear of people (even if they're close friends) who get pregnant so easily when many of us try so hard. It's especially hard if you're in a difficult spot in your adoption process right now. And since they're such a good friend, I'm sure you feel a little bit guilty about not being 100% excited about their good news.

I remember that I was so gung-ho during the early stages (paper chase) of our adoptions because it felt so good to be doing something to actively move the process forward. Then when we got to the waiting stages, it was brutal. Feeling that you have no control of the process is very difficult. (My SIL still snips that we did it "the easy way" but -- HA!!)

I know you're going through a tough time right now...so all I can say is that I'm sorry you're going through this...and I hope your agency calls with the perfect referral for you soon.
