I totally feel you, on all of those. My best gal was the one who didn't want to get married and have kids, and now she's married with 2 kids, and IS totally different than she used to be. And she's happy, but I know it's not exactly what she wanted for herself, and that makes me sad.
I also miss our friendship/the time we used to be able to spend together. Don't feel bad about being upset. Your feelings are what they are. Of course, I'm sure you're happy for her too, and that's what good friends do, but good friends are sad when things happen that can change a friendship, so you're perfectly within your rights there. *Hugs* and also congrats, because you'll end up being the cool 'auntie', and that's an awesome and amazing thing too. There's nothing better than being the one to give gifts and spend time, and be doted on by a young child, and then being able to give them back to mom once they get cranky. :)
