TTC After a Loss

Rough day (Babies mentioned)

I am three and a half weeks out from my loss.  Today at work I had to do a clinic that had a lot of young babies in it (I'm a Resident).  Most of the time at work I usually only have to deal with adults.  It was really, really hard for me.  The worst part was that all the patients ask if you have any children.  I wish people wouldn't ask.  I just feel like saying "None that are living, thank you."  I know that they don't know what's going on but it's still awful.

There was a one month old baby boy there and he was so sweet.  He looked me right in the eyes for the entire appointment.  It was almost as if he understood.  I'd like to think it was the spirit of my lost LO telling me they're okay.  I know it sounds crazy...

Sorry this was so long.  Thanks for listening to me.

    This doesn't sound crazy at all.  It's amazing, right? Just like what I went through in this post...https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/51412910.aspx

    I'm sorry it was a rough day, but happy that you got that little sliver of comfort.  3 weeks ago today I went for my ultrasound and there was no heartbeat, so we're sort of on the same time line.  I hope you have some better days ahead. :-)
