Devastated

Not many people know this from my side, but my first ended up being a miscarriage, talking about it with some close friends and family I found out most of our friends with children had them, my parents, cousin, aunt, even the neighbor had 3 before her first child, and she has 7 kids now.

I truly believe it’s WAYYY more common than a lot of people or stats will have you believe because a lot of the time it’s unreported.

Don’t let this make you all feel like it’s not possible or there’s something wrong, there’s light at the end of the tunnel. A lot of times that’s also the body’s reaction to something that could have gone wrong in development as well. It still sucks, but we also have an amazingly perfect almost 3 year old now after all that we went through. Hold on to that hope.

That’s terrible. I feel for you. Not sure what the situation is but I hope you and your partner are ok. The fact that you’re not alone in this probably doesn’t ease the pain but if you’d like to talk, I’m also available.

Well wishes to you and your family.
I can’t imagine how difficult this time must be but I hope you are able to find some peace in everything going on.
No shame in reaching out to the yoyo world here as many of us are truly family to each other.

Much love

As all have said, so sorry you’re going through this tough time. Many people have no one at all…so glad to be here for you. Words can’t bring much comfort but advice could make the future a little easier. Your wife will likely be feeling devastated by this and it may be a while before she can really come to terms with it. Men often tend to want to fix things and this can sometimes not go as planned. Best support you can give her is to be available and ready to listen…just listen. And we’ll be her to listen to you. Hang in there. There are better times ahead.

Honestly other than a few specific people in my life this community is the most human interaction I get all day or week outside of my wife and kids and work which often are more transactional during the work/school week.

So sorry to hear this… Having kids can be a much rougher road than most realize. I didn’t know until trying for myself. Stay strong for each other and you’ll get through this. Sending love your way.
