Simple as that really. Just went down the road to get a pint of milk and saw this bloke putting his maybe, four month old baby in the car. I felt horribly jealous.

Bobbins

Sorry for being so naive - but what is your situation? You say you lost a baby - was that your first and when was that.
You are obviously feeling rather sad at the moment - and with so much "trivia" going on in all the thread I don't want to trivialise your suffering

I'd much rather deal with the puke and excrement, rather than the big gaping hole. There were so many smiles and joy, and so much love and hope.

Sorry, I think I'm having a bit of a bad day.

I'm not feeling that bad really. Just a big green jealous thing! but life really is OK.

Sorry Bobbins, I had no idea. Have just read a bit about what you've been through. You are very brave and I'm not surprised you feel jealous.

Poor you Bobbins, I can remember feeling exactly like that. It took me 4 years to finally get my dd (now 8 months) and I used to feel like that a lot. It didn't matter if they looked like cadavers and were oozing vomit from every orifice, I still thought they were lucky.

Now she's 8 months I'm feeling it again - no 2 here we come!

True

But it was such a nice little bundle, and he looked like a right bruiser, but all kind of gentle.

Sorry, I am potentially a baby stealer, after losing my little boy.

That is totally untrue by the way. I am still a trusted baby sitter. goodness knows why!

Ah yes, but you weren't looking at the bags under his eyes.... or the sick on this jumper...
