I'm so sorry, Zoe.

I can't say that it gets any easier. Watching the birth announcements of those babies will be bittersweet to say the least. Not that you will not be happy for the mothers but it will make you miss your own even that much more. When I first lost mine I would go over to my sister's house and hold her one yr. old. My sister did not know why at the time, but I did it and did it and did it. That comforted me some but there was absolutely no correlation between her baby's age and mine. However, my SIL was due just a few weeks before me and the other night I babysat and rocked her baby to sleep. Let me tell you, that was very very hard. Again, I don't begrudge her her baby, it's just that it exposed a nerve. I know we may grieve differently but just be ready for that type of thing to happen.

Seeing people go through their pregnancies and being due when you were due is very hard.

:hugs: It was hard for me too. And, I had phatom pregnancy dreams I was still prego until I acutally "gave birth" in my dreams a few weeks shy of my due date. It was incredibly painful.

HUGE :hugs:
