Feeling stressed and sad and need to vent

[ces2008]

Its been a rough couple of days. 1st, DH best friend announced that they miscarried at 13 weeks. Then, DHs cousin (who has a 3 yr old with Leukemia) went into preterm labor at 33 weeks and they arent sure they can stop it. DHs grandpa passed away two days ago. And now I found out that my stepcousin had to deliver her little girl early (wasnt due til Aug) and baby Sophia didnt make it. IDK what to do. Its alot at once. And I feel bad for being jealous of them......
Thanks for reading and letting me vent! Just needing some support!

Wow, that is a lot at once. Firstly, don't feel guilty for your jealousy. It was a natural response and you didn't know what was to come, and certainly didn't wish it only of them. Baby Sophia's parents are going to need a lot of support. There are lots of threads in the stillbirth/neonatal loss forum with advice in how to be with angel parents. I hope if labour can't be stopped for hte other mummy, that the baby will make it. 33 weeks, there is a good chance but it will mean a spell in NICU which brings it's own stresses/emotions.

I'm sorry your family is going through so much at once.
