Her concern is valid, since the protagonist goes on a downward spiral from the moment she finds out.

At first, she tries to be supportive by taking Kate to get pregnancy clothes.

The film also refrains from painting Lainy’s wishes as futile.

Her desire to have a family of her own stems from the lack of one in her youth.
