Nicole,

Listen to LouAnn - Truer words were never spoken.  In general, I am =
feeling
so much better since my loss.  But, I too am finding it hard to look at =
baby
girl clothes and I am finding it hard to talk to my best friend who is
pregnant with a baby girl that is due around the same time that Grace =
would
have been born.  I also didn't want to leave the house for days - =
actually
weeks.  I was so afraid that someone would ask me about my pregnancy =
and I
would have to try and tell them without sobbing.  I didn't want to =
leave
until I could fit back in my regular clothes and not maternity clothes. =
=20

I am finding that it gets better just a teeny bit every day.  But, I am =
also
finding that the days that aren't so great...well, you need to allow
yourself those too.  I find the tears to be cleansing.  Hopefully your
family will come to realize how much support you need.  In the =
meantime, we
are all here to listen. =20

Hugs,
Brenda, wife to Rich, mommy to Matthew Alexander (20 months) and Grace
Alexandra (^i^ 8/31/03) T-13=A0=20

Dear (((Nicole,)))
 Please don't punish yourself for feeling this way. Taking care of your
feelings  is
not selfish. It took us a long long time to be able to look at baby =
clothes,
newborns
,expectant mothers, etc. The first weeks and months we just wanted to =
stay
togther in
the safety of Melissa's house and not deal with the Outsiders.
