Am I being too sensitive?

I have a friend who is also pregnant (further along), I was so excited we were going to be pregnant together. Anytime I try to talk to her about anything to do with the pregnancy she either takes the piss out of me or rejects the conversation for example every time I see her she laughs if I’m tired, and makes jokes about it to other people. I asked her for some advice at the start like what cream she used for her bump and she basically just ignored me and clearly didn’t want to share or make a recommendation. Even when I joined this app she laughed at me (one of the reasons I did was to get the support I lacked from other places) She’s had a recent bereavement happen and I know she’s going through a lot so I haven’t said anything to her about it and she’s been leaning on me a lot. when she needs to talk or a shoulder to cry on I’m always there. I just feel it’s been very one way and I’m finding her company really difficult when she chooses to laugh at me. Should I just accept this, continue to see her and stop trying to share the pregnancy experience with her? Should I try to tell her she’s been upsetting me?

Whoa! It sounds like she isn’t happy that you’re also pregnant??? Idk it could be anything but if you’ve been there for her especially as she’s somewhat grieving, she should support you too! Have you asked her why she’s acting that way bc it is strange tbh. Me and my bestie were pregnant, she’s had her baby last month she didn’t act like that. You seem excited but your friend seems off?

Maybe she doesn't even realise how you feel with everything going on, I would definitely try to talk to her!

That doesn't sound like a friend to me. You can try talking to her but I would really re-evaluate the friendship.

Maybe her pregnancy is different than yours, maybe you just have different opinions. I never bothered with creams etc. However she shouldn’t be belittling you. You need to tell her it’s bothering you. A good friend wouldn’t want to upset you x

All you can do is tell her how you feel and see what happens. Everyone is going through some kind of crap but it doesn't give them a free pass
