I've been reading other people's journals and posts, and it just dawned on me that I am the only person in my world who remembers her. My husband cried the day Anabel (our daughter) died and the day of her funeral and hasn't said a word about her since. He had a daughter through a one-night stand 5 months before Anabel was born and she is all anyone talks about. I feel a little like Anabel never existed. Why doesn't he talk about her? He told me 2 weeks after she died that he's over it. How did he get over it so fast? Why doesn't he hurt for her and miss her? Am I just being overly dramatic?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
The only thing you can assume is that men sometimes are less likely to show emotions. It's true, your husband has another child, so maybe that helps him deal with the grief. And maybe - just consider - that he may say he's "over it" - meaning he's over with the public mourning but doesn't mean he's not still grieving her quietly.
Hoping that in near future he will share some feelings with you that will help.
Have you checked out the community on DS called ForMomsOnly. Those ladies have been thru what you are going thru right now. Maybe they would have some info you could benefit from.
Please take great care of yourself!!
