Just wondering if this is normal. My mum died in 2009, my dad in 2011. I was young ish I guess. I was 32 when my last parent died. I didn't have kids then. I do now- 2 boys, and I think I feel worse since I had them- mainly that my parents never met them and I also miss the emotional support I'm guessing I would have received. It's been hard becoming a mum without having a mum to ask advice.
I manage fine day to day, but when I'm alone I still cry a lot, or if I'm drunk. I'm also gutted when I see my sons with their other grandparents knowing that I'll never witness this with my sons and my own parents.
Is this normal or do I need to somehow deal with it/deal with it better?
