If she does that then just tell her you don't have the time. Maybe just let her say what the gender is, say congrats (so she can't say you aren't showing any interest) and that you don't have time to hear more. If she presses on why just say you don't have the time, you don't need to make up excuses. If she asks when then, say you'll let her know at a later date. Unless you want to confront her face to face and tell her you need a break from the friendship? You could do that as well if you're up for it. Although I'd do it in writing myself but that's me
Another thing has crossed my mind: Could she be narcisstic? My mother is, she has Narcissitic Personality Disorder (NPD) (in a bad way), and she's also fond of talking about herself and stepping all over my feelings. She has no regard for my boundaries either and needs to be at the center of attention. Plus she also likes to rub things in my face e.g. how super fertile she was and that she had no problems conceiving any of her 6 kids (all of us having been emotionally and psychologically abused by her), conceiving me at 41 on the first try or so she claims (funnily enough, she's also fond of the whole "just relax and it'll happen" mantra although I'm by no means saying everyone who uses it has NPD). So maybe your friend has a narcissitic bent? You'd know best though, just something that hit me about your description of her.
Good thing you have a project to distract you
That sounds fun, I'm hopeless with that sort of thing, I think. Instead I make earrings with supplies I buy from a local store (stones, pearls, headpins, hooks ect). It's cheaper to make my own plus I'll have something no one else does so that's fun. So what are you going to decorate them with

Now he's on the 5+2 diet or whatever it's called. Something with pretty much starving yourself 2 days a week
Seems to be working for him but I don't know if it's TTC safe, probably not. I hope your diet works for you
But DH seems to be doing well on it although I think some days he struggles more than others. My MIL is on the same diet since nothing has really worked for her thus far. 
I feel like time is running away from me and I need to know what (if anything) we're dealing with here. Hopefully that will show her just how serious I am and hopefully spur her to run some tests for me, if not then I may very well just see if I can get an appointment with the other resident Dr at our health centre.
I've painted the fronts of the drawers and put together the unit. I'm currently watching football and then going to tape it up with the stripes I want and paint the first coat of grey on 
Me I'd probably want extra stuff to make earrings
