I lost my precious baby boy on 19th December at exactly 6 months.He was my world and happiest loving wee boy
I feel lost without him and no idea at times what to do feel guilty for everything I’m doing like if I get up out bed or even for breathing myself.No idea if normal or if this guilty of getting up for my other kids will ever go away
