Im feeling really bad at the mo. 1 of my friends from sch wasnt there this morning, so I asked her dh where she was. He replied that she was in hospital, as she had bad cramps yesterday and was bleeding. He then said she had had a miscarriage. Her 2nd since xmas. She was 11 weeks gone.

Its very sad as she has 4 other children but none are her dh's. She is such a lovely person and I really feel for her. I just dont know what to say to her when I see her as I have never gone through this.

My sis miscarried while i was pregnant. Hers was an IVF attempt. There is nothing you can say or do. Just let them talk if they want when they're ready.

There is nothing you can say really other than be there for her if she wants to talk.  No words can make it better but she might feel better just having someone that doesn't ignore that it has happened to her she can talk to.  For other people time goes very quickly after someone has lost their baby but for the person it doesn't so to have one friend who you can say you are still feeling sad too helps.  If it wasn't for Rin and Diz letting me go on at them all the time I don't think I would have been able to cope with my mc.

You could always print her off a Madmums flyer and get her to come on here where there are other people that know what she has gone through.

I hope she isn't in hospital long and physically heels fast.

It's a tough call!  I just ranted at my mom, bless her heart.  And I cried alot, seeing other babies hurts as much as seeing other people pregnant, and there's no one and nothing to blame, so you blame yourself, and then your told thats wrong.  All you can do is be there if she needs you, and listen if that's what she wants.  I tried to brush it off and pretend it didn't happen, it caused me major problems for a while!
