PB - dealing with the little people is one of the harder parts of losing a baby My nephew still has memories of Caitlyn and he was only 4. If the D&C is what you need for you, then consider holding a memorial with the children. Get them to write down how they feel / a message for the baby, maybe draw a picture for the baby / how they feel for the younger ones. Get some balloons to release or a plant to grow (pot or in the ground). Encourage them to cry and express their feelings. Don't be afraid to show them yours. They need to know it is ok to feel sad.
They are blunt, they are direct. We could learn alot from them when it comes to loss. Cuddle them lots and know you have a whole group of people sending you their love and support as you negotiate the loss of your precious child
