[quote=Anonymous]Over 5 years ago I lost 1 of 2 twins at about 14 weeks.  I still think about that baby everytime I see twins and double strollers.  It was a significant loss and I am okay with mourning it always. I don't cry anymore when I see twins, but I always wonder what if.  A few years later we tried an IVF with a frozen embryo from the same "batch".  There was only one and the IVF was not successful.  I left like it was my last chance at that twin -- which probably sounds a little crazy -- but I guess it was a connection back to that lost baby.  We made the mistake of telling my ILs that we were trying for another baby with the frozen embryo and they said something like "but you have two lovely children" and we sorry we told them - even sorrier when we had to tell them the IVF failed and they went on to tell us about our lovely children.  It's true of course, our kids are wonderful, but that didn't make the loss any less sad for me.  A loss is still a loss.  OP allow yourself as much grieving as you need and understand that this may be one of the things in life that time may not heal so quickly.  [/quote]
