[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it weird. I am FB with sisters and one of them had a still birth. Her sister post all the time about it (grant, the mother does as well - the baby had a FB page and we saw pics of him and the whole family holding him).

I don't get how one that isn't carrying the baby can be so [b]obsessed with a person who isn't living in our world[/b] (totally get that mothers have an attachment since they are carrying the baby). [/quote]

Uh... every dead person is not living in our world anymore. People should stop grieving their loved ones? Have you ever lost someone? If you live long enough, you will. Or maybe you just don't have anybody to lose.[/quote]

There is a difference. If someone comes into the world and you bond with them that is different than being an AUNT to a baby that was never alive outside of the womb. [/quote]

Unbelievable! So if I live out if state and my sister had a baby that I don't get to see right away; and if the baby dies a few days after being born, before I get to see her, you think I wouldn't care enough about her to mourn her, only because I didn't carry her in my womb?

You seem to be looking for ways to be offended. Clearly she's saying there's a difference between an early miscarriage (loss of someone who never lived in the world among us) vs someone who was born, breathed, bonded and lived as a separate being. Yes, it's fine to be sad when someone has a miscarriage. It's a bit odd to obsess over someone else's miscarriage though. Especially publicly greiving more than the parents are, to the point when the mother who suffered the loss firsthand is experiencing pain caused by the other person's obsession. It's weird to obsess over someone else's pregnancy that much. [/quote]
