(4,187 posts)let her be sad. she needs to grieve.
and I'm glad she has you. she will NEED you.
When I had a miscarriage 13 years ago, I had no one.
People will try to be nice and say things like
'oh you can have another" (but that was always annoying to me and I think it's rude because it discounts the loss and what you are going through.)
...and you can and you will...but you will miss that child.
don't let anyone rush you guys...our society is not good at
recognizing loss...and the "world" will give you probably about
5 minutes and her maybe two weeks. but take as long as you need.
My heart goes out to both of you, and please let her know we are sending vibes
or prayers...whatever you need.
Please keep us updated and if you need any support, please feel free to PM me...
and you know you always have the lounge.
