Does this belong on Grief and Loss or Preg Again? This week I found out baby #3 is a girl. It was kindof easier w/ Kyle being being a boy after losing FB. I can't really say how I feel now. I feel conflicted and confused. And sad. I wanted a girl so long ago, it seems. Now I love a boy. Will I be able to love a girl again?
Oh, and it is June again. Stupid June. but...I'm doing better than last year - thankfully. I think a lot of that was untreated PPD on top of subsequent pregnancy grief stuff. I guess I can be grateful that's over and treatable in the future.

(Sorry this has taken so long for me to respond but everytime I would go to hit reply some one would pop in my office)
I totally get where you are coming from. I so wanted to be told that I was having a girl a couple of weeks ago because I think it would be harder having another boy after losing Cooper. I am afraid of the comparisions.
You will be able to love this little girl just as much as you love your first child. I guess the love just multiplies with every child.

I agree with it being very difficult. I found out we are having another little girl. Which I am obviously excited and I already love her, but the MIL is already comparing and I have issues with this! I just want this little girl to have the opportunity to be herself and not be compared to her older sister. I miss Kelsie every moment and it is very difficult even being pregnant again. Hugs to you! I know it is very difficult.

Thank you, Ladies! I (finally) had my counselor recommend another counselor on my side of town (so I could actually get some therapy) and I have my first appointment tonight. Yay. I hope we click!
It is nice to see some friends w/ late summer/fall due dates. Baby #3 is due 11/23.
