Didn't read the OP before commenting on the "wife and I are pregnant" phrase.

Atay strong. It happens WAY more than you think. My wife and I misscarried 2 diff times before we had our boy. One time was twins. Its something no one wants to talk about because of the pain, and keep it private matter. But i have found telling people is GREAT. It seems like everytime ive told someone, they have a story of their own, or someone close to them who had the same story. Its way more common than people know.

So sorry. Hearing those words is devastating. I just went through it in April. Even if she says she’s okay, she is not okay. Give even more attention and love than you think she needs, but when she wants to be alone leave her alone. Tell her how you feel about it. She may have days in the coming weeks, months or even years where it hits her like a ton of bricks and she doesn’t want to leave the bed. Let her have those days. I never in a million years imagined mourning someone I never met would hurt so bad.

Oh man. I’m not a parent, so I cannot directly understand the love you have for him, nor can I the profound sense of despair you are both experiencing, but I am truly very sorry for your loss. I hope you both find what peace you can from this soon.

Prayers sent for all three of you.

Do you mind expounding? I wasn't aware there were such conditions that were so gender-specific.

Sure. Incontinentia Pigmenti. Something something science: if a girl, because she'll get one of my X chromosomes o she'll be fine no matter what; if a boy he only gets my Y so if he inherits mom's infected chromosome that's it.

Damn man.

Give your wife a hug for me. Miscarriages suck.

Prayers for everyone involved.

That’s heartbreaking, I am so sorry. It took me 2 years to get pregnant with our one and only kid. I always expected to have more, but it just wasn’t in the cards for us.

Just be there for your wife. I’ve known people who had miscarriages and people who had stillborns and they were able to conceive again and have healthy kids. It’s still possible.

Sending prayers y’all’s way.
