I am sorry that your time with her was cute so short. They truely do impact our life and it hurts so much when they have to go. Right now my daughters dog has 4 puppies ( unexpected adopted from animal shelter pregnant w/ no knowledge of preg) and everyone says I should keep one but I think I am going to concentrate on spending time with my two yorkie girls and just lavish them with attention. Now that I am getting a little better with posting pictures I am going to try a profile and post some pictures soon. |
Initially after I lost my baby I wanted to turn away from all of my pets. It was just so hard to lose them. That didn't last long as I started to worry excessively about them and things happening to them. I quickly became over protective of my remaining two. I caught myself and am now conscious of it and try not to be too overprotective. I still have to remind myself daily not to 'baby' them too much so as to not create separation anxiety. Petals leans to being clingy and I could easily see this becoming a problem for her if I nurture it.
It will be tough on you for the next days, weeks and maybe months to come. You will have the good days and the bad days but you will make it through all of them. Spend more time with your two babies, treat them to some new toys and spoil them rotten.
You have support here and we understand what its like to love and to lose these special babies.
Sending hugs and prayers your way...
