My Pregnant Sister-in-Law

I got my period on July 1st, five days late. Three days later, my brother woke me up by calling to tell me that my sister-in-law is pregnant again, and due in January. This will be their second child. She is two years younger than I am.

I believe that my exact words to my husband when I got off the phone were, "Fuck me," to which my husband sleepily and kindly replied, "Stop it."

It is hard not to compare myself and my situation to others. I have to remember that other people's happiness or unhappiness does not affect mine.
