Tellibg best friend I'm pregnant after her recent miscarriage

Hi I'm just over 8 weeks pregnant with my second child, not planned but hubby and i are happy. I went to organise to tell my best friend the news, instead she informs me she's just had a miscarriage and didn't know she was even pregnant.She's very much still into the party lifestyle with her boyfriend and said there's no way they're ready, she also had an accident a year ago that left her with a fractured pelvis so I don't think even physically she's ready.
She's still quite upset and confused about it all (I don't blame her). We would have been no more than 2 weeks apart! My question is, How do I tell her my news? We still haven't told anyone because we want her to be the first Know.

Just tell her. Say 'I don't know how to tell you this given your recent news and I hope it doesn't add to the pain your going through'

Iwas initially going to say hold off for a few weeks & give her time,but after reading the circumstances i would go ahead &tellher now.maybe in a heartfelt note so she doesnt have to force a response right away. let her know you want her to know first & you understand it might affect her but dont know how she feels & hope she will talk to you about it. Then go & visit & have a chat about it.
