Rob,
I feel like my legs were cut out from under me after reading your post. I only half know what you're going through because my wife and I lost our child before birth. Take heart in the fact that you did have 4 months with your child. If you ever need anything just send me a pm, whether it's going out for a drink or just talking. As odd as it sounds I would recommend getting a puppy if you don't already have one. I found my dog right before we lost our child and the unconditional love and affection from that puppy during that dark time was able to help get both my wife and I through the toughest times when it was hard to be there for each other.
I am a patient boy.
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait.
My time is water down a drain.

Good luck fella. Events like these really put things into perspective. I usually don't respond to these type posts...because I'm not a religious person... and I'm never sure how to help console people who generally are....but even still these are tough things to deal with and the support of knowing people do indeed care is crucial.

Nothing I can write will make you feel better, just know that this board of anonymous posters who've become a family are behind you and would do anything to comfort you at this time.

Rob, my stomach has had a hole in it since I read about it this morning. My deepest condolences. My wife's pregnancy didn't take after 1 month 5 years ago and it still bothers the two of us to this day, I couldn't imagine the heartache you both must feel.

God Bless you and your family Rob, I will be praying for you.

Commiserations to you and your wife on your loss, Rob.

Rob,

We're all with you.

As a father myself, I can only imagine how devastated you and your wife must be.

Is there a charity or community group to which I (we, if others are interested) can make a donation in Molly's name?

It's the only small gesture I can think of that we might be able to do in recognition of your loss. If there is any way we can help, just say the word.
