re: Just found out the SO lost the child after six weeks pregnant

I've been through 4 miscarriages , we've never successfully conceived a child. It's taken for granted by most that you can have as many as you want. It's truly a blessing , stand by her and better luck next time.

Sorry for your loss man. Like lots of others, in this thread, I know what you are feeling. Our doc told us that 99% of the time that it was nothing you could have done about it, that there was some sort of genetic defect and this was natures way of dealing with those problems. He said that this happens a lot of times before they even knew they were pregnant.
This actually made me feel better about it and help me reconcile the fact that we had lost a child. And it was much harder on my wife.
By the way, we have three healthy boys, keep trying.

Just time...
Been in your exact shoes, my friend. We lost our first at 11 weeks.
Once it's time, yall will try again and move on and, God willing, will have all the children you desire.
Prayers for you and your SO

Sorry for your loss. It's in times like this you and your wife can grow in faith and closer to one another. Trust in Gods will and love one another.

Been through it a long time ago and while it's very sad, you'll get over this.
Keep trying and kids will come.

How many times is too many to try before adopting? Something like this makes me worry about when my wife and I try to have kids. After 1 or 2 I don't think I could handle the grief.

Sorry to hear it man. Don't know if you're religious, but if you are that will be a good place to turn.

Don't mean to go off topic on this solemn thread, but I just have to tell you that your avatar pic is glorious.

Damn sorry to hear. I know some don't take this that hard, but I know when I've had a GF lose a pregnancy that it hit me pretty hard even though the pregnancy wasn't planned. We had made the decision to do whatever we could with what we were delt. I'm 32 now with no children (and no significant other at this point either) and I still think from time to time that I had me a little mini-me

Sorry to hear that. I been through it hang in there.

My most sincere prayers and thoughts for you and your wife. No words will provide comfort. We have lost two children that way. One was a twin to my two year old son and we lost him 7 months in.
Just be there for your wife. Cry with her and hold her..

Sorry for your loss, but this can't be stressed enough:
This might sound harsh but it's for the best. The child was not going to survive with whatever defects it had, and had it gone to term the implications would have been way worse and much harder to deal with emotionally. Just keep trying and things will work out in the end, with a healthy happy baby.

Very common, I think it's 15% of all pregnancies.
Sorry for your loss man. In no way does it mean it will happen again. Keep trying and again sorry.

Get back in the saddle and try for another child. Most of my siblings have had this happen. I promise, they don't really think about the miscarriages from ago when their hands are full with little ones running all around the house.
It will hurt for now, but be your SO's shoulder to cry upon.

Really sucks man. Hope your wife is okay and doesn't take it too hard. Just keep trying like others have said.
My wife is 12 weeks right now. We knew at four weeks, so we spent the last two months worrying about this stuff, but we're through the most difficult time now. Get to find the gender tomorrow.
I've know a lot of people that have been through it. Just be there with her. That's all she wants. She'll probably feel it's her fault or she's broken...lots of stuff that makes no sense. Time will make it better.
When my wife and I found out it was honestly hard to tell my best friend. He and his wife have been trying for years but just can't seem to conceive.
