sodevestated....I am sooo glad that you are able to connect and share with his friend, in this way. I think it is very therapeutic for the both of you.
Sharing your feelings and memories with someone is so essential, when one is grieving.....I hope you will continue to do this...with those who understand.
Are you able to do the same with his mother?
I was always very thin before my p regnancies....but, I did gain some weight. As I remember....it took two or three months until I looked like my non-pregnant self, again. It always seemed to take about 3 mo. until I got used to the new baby schedule, etc.
Your tiredness will eventually pass, also. having a new baby and being up at night with the crying is really exhausting. Daily walks really help...
So glad to hear from you.....
