Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Support Group

First let me say sorry for your loss. He is so beautiful. I lost my Hunter when he was 3 months and 16 days old, and that was in Aug. I still hit stage one in my grief alot of days. No, you will never be okay. Sorry to say but you are now damaged goods. You will notice people starting to drift away from you, because they have already gotten over it. And most people do not want to talk about dead babies regardless of what they say. You do know who your true friends/family is when something like this happens. I realize I only have one, and that is my husband. I am here if you need to bitch, rant or rave, and I'm devastated for your loss. I hate coming on here and seeing new parents join.

The crying will slow down. It's been 18 months since I lost my 6 month old daughter Alyssa. I don't cry all night long like I used to. But it's hard for me to go in the room. I literally think about her until I fall asleep every single night and it's weird but the very first thought in my head every morning has to do with her. We talk about her a lot. But I do a lot of normal things like I used to. I hate that I had to move on, I wish I would have died that day with her. But I have an older daughter and now a son so I do have to move on. I can honestly say I never thought I would stop crying or be able to sleep. It was a long time. But I did, now I sleep like a normal person and only cry occaisonally. It sucks that time passes but I believe that time heals. There isn't anything you can do to make it better or go away but the pain will start to lessen with time. I'm so sorry for your loss. It is the WORST thing in the world to have to go through.
