K.,
I had two miscarriages after the birth of my first daughter. I was 4 months pregnant with the first miscarriage and 2 months with the second. My daughter is now 26 and my other two children are 21 and 19. I had to deal with my first miscarriage myself. My husband was leaving the next day to join the military. My daughter was 2 at the time this happened. I did not mourn my baby's loss for years later. My husband was so lost with the miscarriage and having to leave me and our daughter. I had to take care of my little girl to worry about my miscarriage and with the move to another state. I also did not let any of our family members know I was pregnant - military rules would not allow 2 children at the time my husband enlisted. When I lost my third baby it was really hard. I do believe what did help though was my daughter and taking care of her. My huband again was so lost - it effected him too! I had no family around when I lost my baby this time and I also did not say anything to them about the miscarriage. Actually to this day my Mom has no idea I ever lost any babies. I did a lot of praying, crying and I know in my heart I will see my babies in heaven. We each have to find a way to cope with the loss, just don't shut your husband out from your pain, he is hurting too he may not say it so much with words. Your daughter is your delight! I am sorry this happened K..
