Obsession

Today I have spent hours reading other people's blogs about their losses.
I think I am obsessed. I'm not sure if this is helping, but it feels damn good to cry.
I hope this is normal.

Its very normal!
I do it all the time.
We do IVF so I read lots of IVF and ttc blogs but still look everywhere for new blogs to read about loss.
The name of your blog was what made me come and read yours.
So don't worry, its all normal.

Hugs

I found it very helpful to read other's stories. If nothing else, to know I wasn't alone. My son also died of cord compression (well, we are pretty darn sure). It's such a weird, strange, awful thing to go through. It's not fair.

It's only been 2 weeks for you. I think I was in a state of shock for about a month. And I think my worst time was at the 2 month mark. I played back the day in my head day after day after day. Then it wasn't every day. Then it wasn't every week. Then it wasn't every month. I do think about Ian every day but it doesn't hurt as much. It still sucks though.

It may help you in some way to feel you are not alone. I don't comment on many loss blogs, but I read lots of them and see the same familiar names everywhere. I have only had 1st trimester miscarriages, not stillbirth, but the community that these women have formed is so strong and comforting. They really care about each other and help one another. I hope you can find the same kind of support.
