good day/ bad day

I had a really good day today and then a bittersweet day. I became an aunt for the first time. My brother and his wife had their beautiful baby girl tonight. I am happy for them and was doing well until I had my brother show me her in the nursery. She is a big girl weighing in at 8lbs 15oz. We talked for awhile while looking through the glass. My brother could tell I was thinking about my recent m/c and that that was to be us in 6 months. He hugged me and said "that it would be our turn soon and that I will be an amazing mother when that time comes. Until then I will be the best Aunt there is in the world." He continued to hug me and give me a kiss on my forehead. He was so sweet. I didn't think it would effect me that way but I am glad I did it and make one more milestone through this.

    wow...your brother sounds very supportive of you!  I understand how you feel - it took us 8 months to get PG the first time and another 11 mos. to get PG the 2nd time - my brother was not nearly as supportive as yours!! ( he just had his 3rd baby in 4 yrs - his 2nd since our loss -

    wishing you lots of baby dust soon !! :)
