Parenting after a Loss

He Slept in His Room Last Night!

I know I have become  bit of a stranger round these parts the last several weeks, but I am back at work now so hopefully I will have a little more time to bump.

So, my AW is that Harry slept in his own room last night! He is 11 weeks and I think it is the perfect time to move him. He did really well and I highly recommend a video monitor to anyone thinking about it. I went and got one yesterday after several failed attempts to move him - it is amazing and makes me feel much better (his room is on the opposite side of the house).

Now, the ugly Sad If all continues to go well I will pack his cradle up the week. It makes me really, really sad b/c I don't know if we can go through that all again to have any more children at this point, so anything of his I have to pack away just makes me horribly depressed. I can't bring myself to give anything away yet, so I will hoard his baby stuff.

Anyone else struggle with this? I cried like a baby when I packed away his newborn clothes and diapers.

    Hugs. And yay for sleeping in his own room! I couldn't bring myself to move her until 5 months. It's been a week and I miss her, even though she's just in the next room.

    Hi D! You're always welcome here!

  • Hi 4legs!

    I feel like I was way more emotional packing up DD1's things, even though my pg w her was completely uncomplicated and I just "assumed" I'd have another. Then we lost our son, and I went through massive struggles to have our rainbow
