Raisin,
That totally sucks. I feel for you. I would also be upset. I can imagine that her pregnancy pushes all the longing for mothering right in your face. And while you probably know that she has a life outside of the therapy office, it doesn't help to be reminded of it. My previous therapist's personal life kinda interferred with our sessions, as much as she tried to keep them separate, and it threw me for a HUGE loop. Mostly, I realized that she wasn't the person I thought she was, nor could she ever be who I wanted her to be--namely, a mother. And it hurt.
And on top of the she's going to be gone for six weeks. That sucks even more. Will you have the chance to plan for her absence, like things you can do to help yourself, or people you can call, fill-ins? I hope so. I hope she wouldn't leaving you hanging.
Anyway, hang in there. I'm feeling for you.
