Re: CPW: Most Supportive Person

  • DH, my parents and brother, BF, MIL and SIL are all equally supportive. But I talk to DH most often since I don't like to discuss everything with everyone IYKWIM.

  • Ohh good question...definitely DH but I think that one may be  a given as he is with me everyday. I voted for someone who you grew closer too though because that is the one that most surprised me. Someone at my work talks to me about it and lets me vent as much as I want where DH has a time limit, lol...just kidding (kinda).

  • I guess DH has been the most supportive but he still doesn't quite understand how much I am hurting.  He actually got upset by something his mom said, in relation to our loss which was a shock to me and made me feel more supported.  I have had good moments with my mom and BFF, they know what to say but sometimes I wish they would check on me without me bringing it up.

  • my SIL, she also just knows more about the subject so its easier to talk to her... i dont need to explain every little thing... like yesterday my mom asked me what the difference was between a mature egg and a fertilized egg... yeesh Ma youve had 5 kids how do you not know what a fertilized egg is lol
  • I voted DH, but I also wanted to give a shout out to my therapist. She's amazing.

  • My mom has been amazing.

    DH is just now starting to understand how I've been feeling... For some reason it took three full months for the situation to really sink in for him. He's been supportive, but I don't think he knew what he was supporting, if that makes any sense at all.

  • I SS'd because it's a tie.  My SO has been wonderful (despite his own grieving), but there are some things he doesn't get.  A good friend, who has also had a m/c (and then a beautiful RB) has been great, but lives across the country.  And my mom, who has struggled with RPL vacillates between super supportive and totally not getting it.  So kind of all 3 and kind of no one?

  • Definitely DH has been.  Besides everyone here, he is the only person who will talk to me, won't change the subject, and will bring up the fact that we lost our LO.  Everyone else skirts around the issue, pretends it never happens, or says their 2 cents then changes the subject.

  • I can't believe I even chose this, but my MIL has really been the most supportive.  She went through multiple m/c's before conceiving DH and his brother, so she's really the only one who understands, probably even better than DH since he doesn't go through the whole physical part of the m/c.
