I already feel attached to her since I used to refer to my daughter as "Baby Girl" on my blog, and her first initial is also "A". :)<BR/><BR/>Breastfeeding is always hard at first. It really will get easier, I promise!<BR/><BR/>Emotions run high in the weeks after giving birth under the best of circumstances. With the loss of another child under your belt, it is understandably more intense. I remember. It is perfectly normal and okay to adore this little one while still missing her brother. You always will.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05528541804521203406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498447762327844508.post-23476369141355770462008-01-01T11:35:00.000-08:002008-01-01T11:35:00.000-08:00Congratulations Ms G.

It's definitely tricky - and tearful. Good luck - and enjoy every moment! (the c-section recovery was sucky at first, but gets better soon. at least, in my experience.

Everyone thinks that now that you have a new baby, everything is fine, but it's not, because someone is still missing. And they don't understand that. :( <BR/><BR/>Take care!loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498447762327844508.post-58375278080790105492007-12-27T08:41:00.000-08:002007-12-27T08:41:00.000-08:00Wonderful wonderful news!

I wanted to be happy for Andy, but I was still mourning Jimmy. I had built up what motherhood was going to be like for 23 months. So I was a bit shocked at how hard it was... and how sad I was. But yeah, the cry was the most beautiful thing. We want pix when you feel up to it. And congrats, I know it was a hard road. You did it with grace and courage.Mrs. Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13572508460850412007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498447762327844508.post-85484723550315829352007-12-26T20:14:00.000-08:002007-12-26T20:14:00.000-08:00Congratulations on the birth of your sweet baby gi...Congratulations on the birth of your sweet baby girl. And at such a blessed time as well.<BR/><BR/>I encourage you to speak (or write) how you are feeling even if people are going to interpret it differently. I think that mothers who are experiencing a birth after a loss often don't do that. Either because people IRL don't understand or because they think you're complaining. I think it's all a part of the healing process and you should let it out.<BR/><BR/>I hope you heal well and are enjoying little A.<BR/><BR/>Much love to you :)Monica Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767867041043811045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498447762327844508.post-44727102874491501872007-12-26T17:54:00.000-08:002007-12-26T17:54:00.000-08:00Ms G., congratulations to you, Mr. G and baby A. ...Ms G., congratulations to you, Mr. G and baby A.
