Re: How do I react to a friends miscarriage?
anonymous
Question:
What is the best thing to say to someone who has lost a pregnancy? I heard people don't like being told "I'm sorry" and thats all I can think of saying. My
friend told me prior to the miscarriage that if she lost the baby, she didn't want everyone feeling sorry for her but what do I say? I can't just not reply.......
My Advice:
As some-one who has also lived through a miscarriage the last thing you want to hear is those words "I'm sorry" the most important thing for me was knowing that my friends were there to support me when I needed them knowing I could talk to them about how I was feeling was important . It is also important to not be judgemental as we all react to situations differently just let her know that you are there for her when ever she needs you and mean it!
