Several times now I have dreamt about my late husband who died five months ago. I dream that I am repeating the whole funeral. I am walking in front of his coffin with my children and his first daughter by my side.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
Do you have a question?
Dreaming about the death or funeral is natural at this stage of grief, your adjusting to a new normal, and your mind is shifting through the process, the dreams will fade and be replaced by others.
Your reality will sink into your subconsious and the beginning of acceptance will start.
Its only early days since his death, keeping a journal is always helpful to sort through your feelings, which may change several times during one day, this also will even out.
If I can give you one piece of advice as regards your children, no matter what age, if your having a bad day, let them know your sad and its because you miss their dad, or if your angry about it, show them the way to deal with their own feelings as they will be quite similar to yours.
I found when I was angry about my daughters death,how could I be angry with her, so I took my anger out on innocent cold callers or the cashier at the supermarket, I also shouted at my other children for no reason,because I was angry at my daugthers death, but I found a better way to deal with that anger, by writing, going for long long walks and talking about it, being honest with my children when I had to say sorry and the real reason why I was angry.
You have a tough road ahead, there's no way to sugar coat it, its not going to be easy, but you will get through it and so will your children.
I wish you the best.
Agree
I am sorry for your loss. It is part of grief and part of the process one goes though, We all deal with loss in various ways
I was widowed. What you are experiencing was part of the grieving process for me. Everyone has a different process in a different time frame.
