I am sorry for your loss. I can imagine
how hard it is to hear all this but it
also is not fair for her since this is a
really huge deal and life altering thing.
Maybe you cna just stay away for a little
while and gather your thoughts.

Take the time you need to heal.

HOnesty might work really well here-tell
her how happy you are for her, but this
miscarriage is very difficult for you to
come to terms with esp since your due
dates were similar. Let her know that she
has your support, but you need to take
some time to heal. I am sorry for your
loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
I don't have any advice (I think what the
ladies have already said about covers it)
But, I did want to say that it is
completely normal for you to feel this
way. You can be happy for her and sad for
you at the same time. It doesn't make you
a bad person. It might help to talk about
it. Have you looked into local support
groups?
I do agree, if you are honest with her,
I'm sure she can understand. She might not
understand the pain you feel. But I'm sure
she can relate to being constantly
reminded of something you are trying to
move past.
