Cupid’s Advice:
There is so much excitement around expecting a child with your partner, and the last thing you want to consider is the possibility of having a miscarriage. Unfortunately, many couples do experience miscarriages during their pregnancy journeys. If you are looking for ways to support your partner and relationship through a miscarriage, Cupid has some advice for you:
1. Relieve any guilt: Miscarriages are one of the most emotional events a couple can experience when trying to have a child. Despite following all of the pregnancy guidelines and visiting doctors regularly, an issue such as miscarriage can still occur. It is important to remove any guilt or blame surrounding a miscarriage, and assure both partners that neither of them are at fault.

2. Develop a plan: Deciding on the next-steps following a miscarriage are painful but necessary. These types of events can be emotionally exhausting in a relationship, and it is important to discuss how both of you wish to move forward together. Having a conversation about if and when to try again, as well as the possibility of exploring other options can help relieve some stress and provide a new sense of hope in the relationship.

3. Attend to the family: After a miscarriage, a majority of the attention goes to the woman who was pregnant. While it is essential to support her through this process, it is also important to tend to the rest of the family. Both partners and any existing children were all likely looking forward to welcoming a new child into the family, and will all have their own grief processes following a miscarriage.
