" It is so hard to deal with other people's pregnancies, but worse to deal with people we don't get on with. If this couple get pregnant you will probably wonder why they deserve this and you don't. All normal reactions, but hard to deal with.
About church - could you focus on church being about you and God, a time and place set aside for you to be with God? You could try to avoid this couple, sounds as if you are not really friends with them anyway. Spend time with people who love and support you - I hope there are some of them at your church. Could you talk to your pastor about your feelings?
I find the Psalms very helpful when I feel lost and alone. If you want to message me your email I could send you a list of verses which express how God understands and is with us through the pain of grief and (in my case) depression.
God is your shelter. He is with you whether you go to that church, change churches or don't go at all.
