@FreckledFox: I'm so sorry you lost sweet baby. I am heartbroken for you. Everyone grieves differently but I know for me the first month was the absolute hardest and I didn't think I would ever survive losing my baby (born at 37 weeks via csection and lived 13 hours but could not survive due to cystic kidneys that resulted in underdeveloped lungs (pulmonary hypoplasia).
But I did survive and you will too. It was still break your heart when you think of losing your sweet little one and you will feel that suffocating pain again and again but you will get through it somehow bc what other choice do we have? It is ok to take care of yourself and talk about your loss and be sad when you are sad and happy when happiness find you.
For me I didn't sleep for weeks. And I cried all the time until I developed an infection in my eyes from the nonstop crying. I never thought I would feel normal. But after a few months I started to feel normal again and each day is easier than the day before. The sadness can still be suffocating but you will get through it.
You carried that baby with so much love and there is no doubt that love was felt every moment that baby was with you. You are an amazing mother and your baby will always be in your heart. Take care of yourself and be easy on yourself. My heart is with you

I went back and read your story on WB. You are a fantastic mother to Grady and gave him so much in his short life. He is looking down on you from heaven. I wish you peace and healing during this awful time. You are an amazing momma.

I'm so, so sorry for your loss. We lost our daughter at 32 weeks last year. Losing a baby is heartbreaking, but like Sandy said, it does slowly get easier. Somehow you survive. You and your family are very much in my thoughts, and if you need to talk, please don't hesitate to message me.

I am so sorry mama. I promise you it does get easier. We had a 22 week loss in December and I remember how lost and angry and sad I felt in the early days. I heavily leaned on friends and family for support and have also been seeing a therapist that deals with fetal and infant loss. I wish you lots of love and peace as you heal.

@FreckledFox: And this may or may not be helpful but one thing the grief counselor told us was:
"People are going to try and say something and they will not know what to say or they will say the wrong thing and even worse they may something that offends/hurts you. Try not to let anything that they say during this time hurt you too much. People do not know what to say. And many of them will turn around and get in their car and will feel just awful and think "why did I say that?!?!" And some people will be silent and not say anything at all for months and months. Again, try to not let the actions/inactions of others hurt you too much at this time"
I'm still working on this everyday...all I can do is try and find peace and happiness. I hope you will be find peace with time

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. It helps
@sandy: @delight: @Torchwood: I am so sorry for your losses I hate that we are in this club of sadness. I am glad to hear that time helped. Each day does get easier, but I still miss him every day. I have thought about seeing a therapist, but it's all so fresh. Maybe after a little while. My husband has been a huge support for me.
