My baby boy was still born at 35 weeks, 3 weeks ago. The past 3 weeks have been so hard for us but I know this is only the start of our grieving journey.
One of the things I am really finding hard is being near new or tiny babies. I have even left shops if I hear one crying nevermind actually seeing one. I am contently avoiding looking around me when I am out and avoid situations when a new baby might be around.
My question is for anyone out there who has also lost a baby. How long did it take for you to feel comfortable being around new born babies or even got to the point of holding one? At the moment I feel like I will never want to hold another baby in my arms, as I can still feel my son in my arms I do not want to lose that feeling.
