I don't know what to do

This morning I found out my step father die and don't know how to deal with all of this he was the Kindest Person I Know And Im Going To Miss Him So Much. I don't know what I'm going to do I'm so depressed and just crying all day I just can't stop I'm trying not to be so stressed about everything  because  I found out two weeks ago I'm pregnant with my 2nd baby and I'm only 6 weeks pregnant I don't know if I'm hurting the baby because of how I'm feeling. I'm sorry if this really makes no sense I'm just really sad

I know your pain. My mom died the day of my 9 week appointment. She was the only person I had told and we were both worried because I had a missed miscarriage a couple of months before. She never got to hear the heartbeat or find out that we're having a boy. It gets easier over time but take the time to mourn and depend on those around you who love you.

I'm so very sorry for your loss, but definitely do not hold it in. That could build up stress within, causing increased blood pressure, etc. It's OK to cry and mourn. If you have someone close, get with them and ask them to either cry with you or just be a shoulder. Find memories of him that will make you laugh and concentrate on those. And know that he'll be watching over you and your babies always now. Talk to him every chance you feel the urge and he'll be there listening, though you maybe not get his response.
