My Wife Had a Miscarriage How do I Help Her? Listen to Her!

Listen to Your Wife After a Miscarriage - Learn While Giving Emotional Support

My wife had a miscarriage a few years ago and I wanted to support her emotionally because I was not quite sure what exactly she was going through.  So I listened. 

What I found was an amazing discovery that helped our relationship grow a lot.  

She was 7 weeks pregnant when we lost the baby.  And I found a baby sitter and we drove off to a quiet and private place and I asked my wife to teach me and help me understand what she was going through and why.

She told me this.  Billy I already pictured holding this baby in my arms, breastfeeding the baby in our rocking chair.  If that was not enough to break my heart for her she continued to tell me other things in her heart and mind about the baby.  

And this did 3 critical things for our relationship and for my wife.  Number one it helped us grow so much closer together.  Number two it helped me truly truly understand the emotional pain she was going through not just what I thought I understood.  And number three it helped her healing process move along much quicker.  

So men take time getting to really know and understand your wife so that you can feel for them and you and help them through certain things.  After all, I don't want my wife going elsewhere!!
