visiting a newborn
DH wants to go visit friend's newborn baby girl today.
I respond - a baby girl like we would have right now.
He responds - why do you always say that. It makes me sad doesn't it make you sad to say ?
I respond - I'm thinking it, I have to say it. Gotta get it off my chest.
Then I said - we'll if people would be more considerate of my loss and have baby boys instead, we wouldn't be having this problem.
I hate how seeing newborns make me feel now. I used to LOVE to see them and hold them. Anyone else feel that way ?

Re: visiting a newborn
I absolutely know how you feel. I had my first loss when my nephew was 6 months old, there was a party the week after my D&C and I couldn't hold him. My sister ended up being mad at me for ignoring the baby, but I just couldn't do it.
