I get what you're saying. I think one problem is that most celebrations, even the grieving ones, involve drinking, which leaves the pregnant woman out of her own party. Also, most parents-to-be are in denial about the death of their singlehood--they tell themselves that they're going to be the "cool" ones, they're not going to have to sacrifice anything, they'll still socialize and stay close with all their single friends... it's not until it's too late that you suddenly realize that person died months ago.
