I couldnt even wear the maternity clothes afterwards. I wore pajamas instead. For the 2 months I was home, I was mostly in PJs until I could fit into my pre-preg clothes. I hit the maternity wear and the baby clothes. I took them out in August and it's been hard to wear them again. Even buying new pieces has been hard. I wear some things and I think "this was my fave with them"... It's rough. The baby clothes are still in my bottom drawer. I know I'll have to unpack them in the nursery, but right now, that is too much. <BR/><BR/>It's hard to get rid of things, but I think you have the right thought. My grandma had made a blanket for them she never got to give us. Right after Sophia died, there was a terrible tornado near her and she donated the blanket. At first, I was so hurt. But she told me how she just knew the baby being wrapped up in it would have Nicholas and Sophia watching over them... I still think about that. Whomever wears those clothes will have Ellie watching over them...Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17681333723382119281noreply@blogger.com
