Oh my god, I am so sorry My heart and my prayers go out to you, and to all of the ladies who've shared their stories here You've suffered the greatest loss that life can throw at a person, no doubt about it. I truly pray you find the support you need at this difficult time, one day at a time.
I am so sorry for your loss. I can't begin to imagine. I pray that you and your DH find the strength to gew through this. Do not feel guilty, everyone grieves differently. You and your baby will be in my prayers
i am guilt-ridden over how badly i want...well need to be pregnant again...NOW.
I am sooo terribly sorry for you loss
I lost my son when he was 4 months old. I too had the feelings of NEEDING another baby right away. I know that having another baby so soon isn't the right thing for every grieving mother/father. But for my DH and it was the right choice. Our daughters have helped us move on (not forgot or replace him, but they give us something positive to live for). They do not replace our first son. In fact I still have a good cry for him often even though its been 3 1/2 years since his death. My youngest DD looks just like her big brother which is very bitter sweet.
Only you and your DH can make the decision which is right for your family. I just wanted to let you know you son will NEVER feel replaced. He will be a proud big brother!
My oldest DD is 2. We have mentioned his name in front of her but haven't really talked to her about him. We plan to explain it to her when she is older. But just a few weeks ago she started pointing him out in pictures and saying his name and it melts my heart. I feel that she knows him better than I think she does
Some parents will need years to grieve before they decided to have more kids. Some will have another baby shortly after their child's death. Neither person loves their lost child less/more, they just do what they need to be happy again!
