IT is called empty nest syndrome. This may be your youngest child, but she is no baby and if you really want to feel better stop thinking of her that way.
When My youngest child moved from home, I was able to turn that room in to a sewing/craft room and start making lap quilts for people in local hospitals. I also was able to do some volunteer work I have been wanting to get involved with.
I started doing things for others who need help and found that I was to busy to spend much time missing my youngest.

The spelling and grammar make me think some one is "funning" us!!
Getting the last rugrat/ankle biter, out of the house should be a cause for joy! A reason to celebrate. This means you succeeded at what you started, when you conceived the child. Congratulations. This is what your goal was!!
Now do the logical thing! Remodel and/or rent her room out, so she won't be tempted to come back and depend on mama for the rest of her life.
Now you can have a life. You and your spouse can go places, and do things. Welcome back to the world. Start the next, and much happier, chapter of your life.

Is she formula fed? you're saying its after each and every feed, it would want to likely be an hypersensitivity. My son changed into given formula in certain circumstances (like, 3 or 4 circumstances finished) without reactions, yet when I weaned him from breastmilk and onto formula, each and each and every time i might want to feed him he might want to get a touch worse and worse till at recent after feeding he might want to throw up everywhere, get hives throughout, and sneeze 12 or 13 circumstances in a row. He changed into on antibiotics and that i theory that changed into the problem, yet purely to verify I switched him to soy and he under no circumstances had a topic back. he's now 11 months previous and if he has something with the smallest quantity of milk (or whey or the different milk product) in it, the reaction is purely about instant. it would want to be colic and there is not any help for that yet purely waiting for her to make stronger out of it. yet i might want to easily attempt soy formula and be conscious if the reaction is a similar. i'm very sorry for you, i comprehend that's stressful to verify your toddler hurting and under no circumstances comprehend what to do. sturdy success

I under stand I cried also when my oldest son got married. It takes a while but you will get over it. Also when my son went to school I felt so empty and I cried then as well.

I only have one child, a daughter, and I cried at her high school graduation and her wedding. But I think I was crying in relief that my job was done and she was on her own. She has been married almost 14 years now and has two kids of her own. You get over it. For me, it was fast.

I went through that also with my first son. After that, my other kids decided to stay closer to home ! It was difficult but I survived and my son grew up.

Not going to college but moving out. Same feelings. You will miss each other but then eventually, you will get use to it.

They feel happy and sad at the same time, but they will settle down to know their kids are growing up.

Hopefully you didn't home school her. Is she deaf? Isn't Berea College for the deaf? If so, maybe you should ask in disabilities.
