Husband's Take on Everything
Post Body

First I want to say I am so glad I found this sub. It is nice to be able to read the comments and see that my wife and I are not alone in this. I have been reading a few different post and I could only find a few from the husband's perspective. I can't even begin to imagine everything my wife is feeling but with everyone help on here it has given me more insight and guidance as far what I can do for her.

Quick backstory: We had been trying for 2 years, my wife had previously had 2 miscarriages (really early in pregnancy), the 3rd and most recent happened at 11 weeks (this was just over 2 weeks ago).

My Take: My wife has been through a range of emotions so far and I have been doing my best to be the rock for my wife and be as supportive as I can. However, I find myself now getting sad when I see someone post online but their pregnancy (as we have friends who are pregnant). Also I can't help but be sad when I am in the store and see a father with their child and think how that is not me, or even when I see a couple out and the lady is pregnant. I have been there for my wife the entire time and been as supportive as I can be. She is really amazing.

My wife and I spoke last night, and she is now thinking she does not want to try again, I am supportive of that decision and will support her no matter what. I know that she is not in a play to become intimate right now and I am not either (I don't know when I will be honestly). I feel just overwhelmed about everything.

Thank you for letting me vent and I know my writing was scattered all over the place.
