She is expecting another baby in March and I just found out it was another girl. I am so angry and jealous that I don't know what to do with myself. I lost my infant daughter 6 weeks ago. And this woman is an awesome person, but her kids go to the same baby-sitter as my daughter, so I am going to have to see this baby every day. How am I supposed to handle that?Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402501717587035112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319648175412671268.post-27087012092973773182010-11-11T15:44:09.148-08:002010-11-11T15:44:09.148-08:00I feel this so much too.

The only thing that helps me is what Jaime said- thinking that I don't know the whole story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319648175412671268.post-10788934083776844192010-11-11T06:42:23.769-08:002010-11-11T06:42:23.769-08:00I think jealousy is a natural part of grief and I ...I think jealousy is a natural part of grief and I struggle with the same battle myself from time to time. I definitely think allowing ourselves to feel what we feel, however irrational it may be is ok. I have definitely felt jealous of a stranger who has a daughter the same age as my Lilly would have been and I like you so do not like to feel jealous.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07194853103053771968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319648175412671268.post-3102645439879401712010-11-09T16:43:54.399-08:002010-11-09T16:43:54.399-08:00I have a son that is 28 months old and has develop...I have a son that is 28 months old and has developmental issues. Not the same, I know but I always feel that envy when I see a healthy little boy that is doing all the normal things my son can not do. I hate the feeling but I go feel it.

I would look and look and then avert my eyes and try not to cry but all the while still looking back. It is all natural and it will pass in time. It may be a while though and be gentle on yourself. <br /><br />One thing that always helped me (not to impose my way, just trying to help) was thinking that maybe, just maybe, that mother had struggled to bring that baby into the world too. You never do know anyone's story. She may have been in our shoes at one point. Not that we wish that upon anyone at all... it just helped me to not stress or get as anxious around others. I hope this helps a little. <br /><br />xoJaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07232117298571410184noreply@blogger.com
