Women mourn their way through a miscarriage. The men who love them mourn, too.
“I remember the winter night vividly. Our unborn baby was dead.
Three days prior to Christmas 2009, my wife and I lost our baby. I put on a brave face for my wife by saying everything will be OK, and I told my inner circle that we’ll dust ourselves off and try again – but privately I was a mess.”
It’s rare for dads to share their thoughts about miscarriages. This man did. – Upworthy
Riddle from the Middle 
We don’t often think of the man’s perspective and it was good to read that he had expressed his sorrow.

Every word he writes is true for both the dads and the moms. I remember how my husband cried with me after my miscarriage many years ago. For some reason, I never expected him to dry – after all, it was my body and my baby. It never occurred to me that he had suffered a loss, too. We’ve since had 2 more healthy girls, but I still mourn occasionally over the one we lost.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. I’ve been told it’s a pain that never goes away, you just learn how to live with it, but I can’t imagine what that must be like. Sending hugs your way.
