You're funny. You describe my husbands stance perfectly! Maybe it is a male thing...

I agree it's isolating process to go through - I had an early miscarriage in July, and I told my friends - but people generally are so uncomfortable talking about it, I felt like I had to deal with it just between my husband and I - it's like a taboo subject outside of our marriage. Funny that - didn't realise it could feel like that. Luckily my husband was great, but I don't think he got the personal sense of failure that I felt, like my body had let me down or something. So cliche but exactly how I have been feeling.

I think what your councilor said was excellent - good advice about communication should we reach that stage. At the moment I am treading softly softly around the subject: we're at our fact-finding stage, and from Nov onwards we will see what happens...

Thanks for all your kind words, and I wish you all the best with your journey. Keep in touch.
