Feeling a little jealous.
I am so so happy my sister is having a baby. Super pumped, my 1st sister to have one. My bros have kids, but its just different.
But, here I am, feeling horrible. I am just I guess a little jealous. She is my sister just below me. I'm the oldest daughter. Well, she got married before I did, no big deal. Just my Mom got to experience that 1st thing with her. Whatever, no bigs, it helped me out a little. My sister is now having a baby and I just feel so happy, yet so sad. I don't know why. I guess I just always hoped I would get to experience these things with my Mom as her 1st. Sounds very selfish and I don't even like feeling this way. She is being induced. I don't know maybe I just needed to get this off my chest.
Re: Feeling a little jealous.
One thing that I was irrationally upset about was that DHs family has 12 kids (6 boys/6 girls). My family had 2 kids (1 boy/1 girl). All along, we've wanted to be team green and thought it would be exciting to be the "tie breaker". Then my sister had a boy. Such a silly thing to be upset about, but it was something I was looking forward to. She's now expecting a girl, which means I get my tie-breaker hope back. Let's just hope she doesn't have a third before we have our first!
I guess what I'm saying is, it's okay to be jealous or upset over something that may seem silly. Feelings are feelings, you can't really change that. What's important is that you're not holding those feelings against your sister.

Though you can be SO happy for her it still hurts inside, she has something you so desperately want. Be happy with your family, but its ok to sob like a child on the way home (then eat ice cream).
