Baby Shower Drama: Friend’s Infertility Struggles Spark Controversy

Friendships can be complicated, especially when sensitive topics like infertility are involved. In a group of six women, one friend (let’s call her Amy) has been struggling with infertility for the past four years. The group has been careful to separate kid-related chats from their main group chat, but tensions have been rising due to Amy’s reactions to pregnancy and kid-related topics. Now, Amy has finally become pregnant and asked another friend (let’s call her the narrator) to throw her a baby shower. But after feeling hurt by Amy’s past actions, the narrator is hesitant to oblige.
