Ex & his gf are possibly going through a miscarriage. From what I've been told she was lucky to conceive to start with due to endo (don't know anymore than that).
He called me last night for advice. As much as I really don't care about him, I do feel for this poor young girl who may be losing her baby.

She's around 6/7 weeks & he told the kids about it a week ago. I'm faced with the possibility of having to break this news to my kids & I'm really worried... It wasn't really something important to them yet, they know these things take time, but I can see the older girls being pretty upset.

Is it acceptable for me to ask ex to keep any future pregnancies from the kids til its past a viable stage? Like 12 weeks, as some people do?

I've not gone through the heart break of a miscarriage myself, so I have no real idea of the emotions she'd be going through, or how something like this would be taken. I just don't think the kids need that heart ache if this does happen again.

Ex is twisted enough to tell them anyway, purely because I asked him not too, but I do want thoughts from people who've been in her position before I ask that of them.
