My poor OH
People have been very kind and have shown great concern for my wellbeing but what about my poor OH? I get texts asking how i am and not her, I got flowers from my step mum today but only addressed to me, and then a card came in the post from my manager at work, only addressed to me. No mention of my OH. She is hurting just as much as me. We both lost this baby. I don't know how to make it better for her People are thoughtful but not thoughtful enough and i feel all their well wishes on me are wasted cos there's none for my beautiful wife

the other half is usually forgotton but i think they can almost suffer more because they have to watch their loved one go through the physical pain which must be so difficult.
Tell her that we are all thinking of her also x
Sorry for your loss, and sorry if I havent helped.
Lots of Love - to both of you xxx
It's awful isn't it? People do seem to forget about the other partner involved and that is was their baby too.
Keep telling her that you know that she is suffering just as much too )
Sending you both ((((((hugs)))))
Love NN xx
People can forget that in fact there are two people involved here, and whatever the circumstances you both have shared this whole experience from start to finish together and will continue to do so long after. You both had hopes and dreams for this baby and other people sometimes fail to recognise that you will both be feeling as much pain and hurt as each other.
Obviously for the person who would have been having the baby its a bit different, but I think people who know you both also know that your lovely wife knows all too well about being a mother herself and is going to be feeling this even more so! Anyhow you have each other for support, bu*ger off anyone else who doesn't understand. We all do!!!!!
Massive hugs to you both, and thinking of you xxxxx
I think that OH really cares about you and she wouldnt feel bad that people are paying attention to you, i think all she would care about is your response. So it is you who can hug her and talk her out of this pain, it is your turn now to supprt her i guess
Wish you all the best Hun
Love
