What Can I Do to Help Her?

Women don’t die of miscarriage but they do require practical help and emotional support. Your partner may also need to have a D&C or some form of medication to make sure her miscarriage is complete. She can feel fearful about the possible pain of the medical procedures and the physical consequences and also upset that she is, in her mind, ‘getting rid of her baby’. The waiting time for this is usually very stressful so being present as often as possible for her is a good idea. You may be thrown by your partner’s reaction but even capable women are often in such shock, both emotionally and physically, that they are unable to function normally.
