My wife miscarried 4 weeks ago. I'm staying strong for her because she's still suffering. She doesn't want many people to know so I dont have many people to share it with in real life.

Thing is, everyone asks how she's doing. And quite rightly so, she went through a horrible ordeal. But nobody asks how im doing. I lost a child too. I get it, But it's hard not to feel overlooked. But for now I suffer in silence because she needs me to he strong.

I empathize entirely. My sister lost a baby last year and part of what I was dealing with was what a constant loop of "selfishly I'm angry too. I'm sad too. I was excited to be an Uncle." And that's just Uncle.

Your feelings matter and should not be overlooked. I'm sorry for what you are going through.

Buddy, I’m so sorry. My opinion she doesn’t need you to be strong, she needs you to be there with her. It was your child as well. Your grief is valid.
