My sister

Hi! I've had one of my tubes removed in 2024. It was an unexpected pregnancy with an IUD and I didn't have an active wish for children back then. I'm mostly doing alright now, because I've had some time to grieve and process.

My sister and I are very different. We often fought because of this but also always made up.

I've had a difficult time opening up to her and she never really asked how I was doing when it came to my ectopic. Normally she's such a caring person, always asking others how they are.

Unconsciously I still feel resentment about it.

She's had her baby last year and I don't think she knows how her actions hurt me.

When she made an announcement she told me in great detail how being pregnant was great, I cried in my car afterwards.

Today she showed me a poem a friend of her wrote for her about being a mother. She said I had to read it, because it was beautiful. It nearly brought me to tears and I don't think she noticed.

I think I've overcome this hard time to a great extent, but talking to her always tears something up.

I don't think she wants to hurt me, and I don't feel comfortable opening up to her.

Maybe someone understands.
