I'm so sorry I got my dates wrong in my post . I'm sorry that you and your DH fell out with your BIL, when it's your family it really hurts. My mum means well most of the time, but she really surprised me this time. I've always been honest about my loss to my mum, but she just thinks I should get over it and move on. I had a conversation with her today and she said that losing a baby half way through a pregnancy and losing an older baby is different. I beg to differ. She was basically telling me that my loss shouldn't be that big, because he wasn't even full term. I told her, how would you know mum, have YOU ever lost a baby ? It makes me so mad sometimes.
I've already told her I'll never get over my loss, and why should I, and now she thinks I'm heading for depression
Anyway, lets hope she begins to understand soon, as my patience is running out with her.
