You're not crazy. I like to think of them [lost babies of parents on Glow] up there together.
Not long after Matilda died, I had a nightmare that centered around there being no one up there to look after her. She's been the first loss of a family member I've been close too so in my dream I was worried about her. But now I know about all these other beautiful babies for her to play with.
DH's Aunt sent us a book called 'There Are No Tears in Heaven' that sort of works on this theory. I'm not really religious and not sure what I believe about the afterlife but I found it comforting.
