And while it isn't the best way to "save" a marriage, the pregnancy did bring us closer together, and the resulting miscarriage bonded us like no other. That period in our lives was one of the toughest (we were both unemployed, we almost lost our condo, my father's health was failing) I've ever been through, and the miscarriage really helped us rely on, as well as be strong for each other.

I'd seen Hubs cry before, but never had I seen him so emotional. He was hurting because of the MC, but also because of the huge amount of pain that I was suffering. I know that he would have done anything to keep the emotional and physical pain away from me. We knew that our miscarriage was starting and chose to use pills instead of a D&C and one thing that in particular stands out to me was when I was hurting the worst, he got our laptop and found the praise song that I turn to when this are bad and just played it over and over for me. He's been so supportive in every possible way. tequiero21 on "How has experiencing a MC affected your relationship with your SO?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-has-experiencing-a-mc-affected-your-relationship-with-your-so#post-13765 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 08:29:20 +0000 tequiero21 13765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ i think it brought us closer too. first time i really saw him cry. he was the only one i could really turn to. heffalump on "How has experiencing a MC affected your relationship with your SO?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-has-experiencing-a-mc-affected-your-relationship-with-your-so#post-13751 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 08:03:03 +0000 heffalump 13751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It brought us a lot closer together. Even if I didn't want to talk about it, him just being there was helpful. I would cry every night. Literally, wake up in the middle of the night bawling my eyes out. And he would sit there and hold me. He would come home from work to find me sitting there, bawling my eyes out, and he woud come hold me. Different couples communicate and handle things in different ways. There's no right or wrong way to handle your grief as a couple.

Even when something as insignificant as stress at work is bothering me, I often become closed, not wanting to talk about it, and this ultimately affects my relationship with my hubs. While he's supportive, I'm not the most open person. I always wondered how I would react and act towards my hubs if we ever had to endure something as devestating as a MC. I'm wondering how a MC has affected your relationship with your SO.
