Long story short, Christmas Day my sister and her husband announced she was pregnant. The information made me cringe and embarrassed and uncomfortable. I was shocked and extremely anxious. It’s not that I’m not happy with it but whenever it gets announced I get nervous and want to leave the room. These intimate emotions aren’t really my strong suit. My brain went into panic mode. It didn’t feel real. I was just curious if anyone else has had a surge of anxiety when someone else is pregnant. Luckily I have therapy Tuesday but was hoping you guys could share your stories.

I’m also 100 percent not trying to make this about me. This is all an internalized feeling. I just am very unsure why I am feeling so distressed. I adore my sister and I’m excited for her. 

It’s also just not what I thought she wanted so I’m slightly worried she feels pressured to. However not my body and she’s an adult.
