s it a weird way to grieve? Hell yes.
I'm sure there are plenty of things people do every day that are "weird".
Life is weird. Death is even weirder.

Don't see a problem with this if it is celebrated with family. Losing a child is something no parent should have to experience.

It was a somber time at the house but we bought some cupcakes and sang Happy Birthday to our baby girl who is no longer with us.
We did it to not only honor her existence but to help our 4 year old son understand that even though someone isn't with us, we can still celebrate their having been here.
As mentioned before in this thread - everyone processes the death of a child differently. I used to have a snarky attitude about it until I joined the ranks of grieving parent.
"Whatever gets you through" is the motto we live by.
I cant say it any better. We wont do a birthday party but i wont judge this women because it gives her a bit of comfort in a life that has become hell. She never got to throw her child a real bday party. Im thankful i got to spend 19 bday's with my son.
We celebrated my sons first birthday after he passed by having a low key family gathering where we shared his favorite food and cake and shared memories.
We will continue to do it because its important to me that my four year old son remembers his older brother and that he lived a lived a great life even though it was a short life.

After 5 years that seems attention whorish. Does she post about it on Facebook?

Thank you for sharing and glad you are remembering your son and keeping his memory alive. This thread has open my eyes to alot of things about how people just move about life. Not move on but get through it.

SIDS is an often overused term for I rants death. Maybe she feels guilt for something. Many times when an infant dies from rolling over and smothering (example), they somehow end up sayin g SIDS caused it.
