Husband Doesn’t Care About My Miscarriage

[@bethford6884]

Two weeks after her miscarriage, for "his birthday" her husband asks to be with another woman? I'd have filed for divorce that day. Seriously. He isn't going to let this go.

[@JustOne-qe7jl]

Don’t walk run to the lawyer’s office. The husband is a cruel, self centered, and childish man-boy. That look of love and empathy speaks volumes of his lack of character. Things will only get worse - partners support each other. He can’t/won’t cut your losses and leave ASAP. I’m sorry for your loss.

[@davinasquirrel7672]

Yes, the "for his birthday" thing, apart from being grossly insensitive, means that he actually isn't someone who will be a good father. He does not have enough empathy for those around him, only his Johnson it seems. I've had two ectopics, and although I was not as deeply sad about it as this caller (only a little sad), I think I would have been grossed out by "but hey, it's birthday time!".

Never be with a man that your scared will divorce you

That is not good advice, because that, in certain cases, has to do with your own insecurities. My ex was convinced I would cheat one day, he never trusted me, he thought I would leave him whenever I announced a surprise or a gift. In the end, he self-sabotaged, he cheated on me and probably not just once, and he dumped me. And then tried to get me back. I néver, éver did anything that was even giving another man attention, let alone cheat on him. I knew he was insecure, he didn't like it if I spoke to men. So only rarely, did I speak to men, I usually stayed near him or sat with women. Work on yourself, if you are scared for no reason that he will leave. Therapy.

[@mico77720]

Character: "the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual." He has mental, he is an idiot, that's a mental. Moral: "holding or manifesting high principles for proper conduct." "When faced with a situation where a baby is lost, it is essential for both parents, including the husband, to maintain composure and handle the situation with care and responsibility. Here are some principles for proper conduct in such a challenging circumstance: 1. Stay Calm: It's crucial to remain calm and composed, as panicking can hinder your ability to think clearly and take necessary actions. Keep a level head to support your partner and engage in effective problem-solving. 2. Support Your Spouse: Losing a baby is an incredibly difficult experience for both parents. Offer emotional support and be there for your spouse, allowing them to express their feelings and providing a safe space for them to grieve. 3. Communicate Effectively: Maintain open and honest communication with your spouse during this challenging time. Share your thoughts, fears, and concerns with each other, and actively listen to one another. Effective communication helps in providing mutual comfort and support. 4. Seek Professional Help: Losing a baby can cause intense grief and emotional distress. It may be helpful to consult with a professional counselor or therapist who specializes in grief and loss. They can provide guidance, support, and coping strategies tailored to your specific needs. 5. Lean on Your Support Network: Reach out to trusted friends, family members, or support groups who can offer empathy and understanding. Sharing your feelings and experiences with others who have gone through a similar situation can provide solace and comfort. 6. Take Care of Yourself: While it's important to support your spouse, remember to prioritize your own well-being as well. Ensure you're getting enough rest, eating well, and engaging in self-care activities that help you cope with the emotional strain. 7. Be Patient: Grief is a complex process, and healing takes time. Be patient with yourself and your spouse as you navigate through this difficult period. Everyone's healing journey is unique, so allow yourself and your partner the space and time needed to heal. 8. Honor the Memory of Your Baby: Find ways to honor and remember your baby. This could involve creating a memorial, planting a tree, or participating in activities that hold significance for you and your spouse. Remembering your baby can provide comfort and a sense of closure. Remember, everyone copes with loss differently, so it's essential to respect each other's unique grieving process. Seek support from professionals and loved ones as you work through your emotions, and remember that healing is possible with time and support." He seems calm, supportive as in getting money to the family (the wrong way thou), his communicating his wants and needs, seems like his not going to a professional, don't know if he's talking with his family, is getting enough rest, doesn't seem patient, and doesn't seem to honor it. Over all, as she describes him he seems like a mix bag. One that she chose and now she's going to have to sit and decide her course of action. With that being said, she is in grief and may be misrepresenting him. It doesn't seem fair to value judgments and identity judgment, asking for what hi "is", rather than what his doing, based on a single point of data.

[@kristinaherrejon7181]

This was an amazing call. The callers openness is amazing.

[@megalopolis2015]

Dr. John's bleeped opinion of the husband was my word to describe him exactly. It's like the wife married someone with a similar emotional range as her mother. He wants permission to cheat (this one openly, at least, as I'm not convinced he's ever been faithful) after she lost her baby. I'm outraged for her. I think that Dr. John's advice is spot on. She needs to have someone outside of her loser household to tell her that she and her feelings are worthwhile. If he doesn't step way up and go way out of his way to be there for her, and commit to the relationship, she should find the strength to get out.

[@aaabbb8812]

No, there is nothing here to save. This has NEVER been a marriage, it's been a farce from the beginning.She needs to pick up her self-respect from the dungeon she's ALLOWED him to put it in, get her children, file for divorce and get him OUT of her life once and for all. This man is a demon and as such, needs to be sent back to his natural habitat-and we know where demons come from, so we know where that is.🔥👹👺👿😈🔥🔥🔥🌋

[@Chellyglutefiary]

John is such a great person. The way he speaks to people from a place of genuine respect and care . Selena deserves so much more . You can hear how sweet she is .. That is heartbreaking that her husband is a horrible dog . Disgusting.

[@candyce2144]

How blessed am I that my husband grieved and understood my grieving even 6 years later?

[@fpm3121]

So sad the bare MINIMUM a human being should do is seen as a blessing...

[@candyce2144]

@@fpm3121 my husband is a whole blessing. We still do special things for our little gift in heaven. But it's not the minimum. People are super focused on themselves and their own pain and struggles. Sometimes we need to allow for grace where we need grace given.

[@ba3665]

Her voice sounds so sweet. She sounds like a lovely woman. I hope she finds happiness and peace.

[@danktankdragkings7117]

My husband didn't understand the breathe of our miscarriage until months into it. We tried to become foster parents in 2019 and that didn't work. adoption was the last option after fertility cancer on his side and major hormonal based seizures on my side made traditional parenthood impossible. But once we both sad down with our grief and got it we got it. I had a psuedopregnacy. My tits grew, my periods stopped, the whole nine years for that 14 months of prep work. I still grieve that picture of having children in our home often. Sometimes daily other times it takes 6 months in-between to get a trigger big enough to burst my bubble. But now twice a year we have a scheduled mourning day for our health and nother one for our family. The other 363 days a year we try to build the cool fun uncle life. But even , 9 years cancer free and 4 years after the miscarriage caused me to nearly drink myself to death, we grieve our children. I'm sad today because I found out one of my greatest friends is having a second baby. We are of course thrilled for them but sometimes this coming weekend I'm gonna have to sit our marriage down and have a greif meeting about it. Cause it hurts and that level of pain demands to be felt. Either we can schedule it or the tsunami can wash us away. You're absolutely right that I felt betrayed by my body when I realized if would be too risky for us. This year after housing it in a freezer since 2014 we signed papers to destroy his sperm. Having children in the home is not an option for us and that's all I wanted growing up. To have happy children because mine was not. Well because of all that trauma I've helped 3 women in my life grieve a miscarriage, we have hosted 4 roommates in our time because we have the space. I can do on the ground work with Wichita 's homeless because I don't worry about the two year old and baby sitter at home if I get caught up in a deep conversation with someone. We had the ability to share food with strangers because (until the recent economic collapse) we had the space and time to spare. Because of these fertility issues I've started an important discussion in our area about fertility loss and what that means for a marriage. Most of my generation (29) has been poisoned with "every girl needs the estrogen pill" and all the plastics and more we just didn't know about until now. Then the next generation (Alpha) is being targeted with hormone therapies that will turn them into eunichs. No one in Christianity is talking about what to do with a marriage that can't have children. Finally enough people like me wrote to our public priests (like patristic nectar productions or Orthobros etc) about what marriage means without children... It's a cross my marriage is forced to bear but it's a powerful tool for change now that I'm understanding how to live with it. You are no less a woman for a broken body. You are no less a husband for only providing for a family of two. Your marriage is whole with two people trying against the world to save each other. You can still do amazing great things even if that amazing great thing isn't what you planned for yourself.

[@rebh2602]

This made me cry… I want to share but I hide my secret… and this brought it up… thank you Dr. John 😢😢😢 I def needed to hear it was valid and I’m still grieving 2 years later

[@AvaEFF]

I’m so sorry you lost your baby 😓. Your grief is very valid.

[@Catseye189]

Ohhhh she married her mother! Arg, those generational circles are so hard to break. Been together 10 years with him stepping out. Tried having a baby to keep the marriage together while he is actively trying to rip it apart.

[@nathalieli7617]

People, let this be a reminder, the relationship with parents will affect the future of the kid's adult relationships. It's clear that the caller had a mother that didn't show love and of course it carried onto the marriage with her husband.

[@Lil-Whiskies]

Exactly! I see this in myself now that my romantic history is in the rearview window. Emotionally unavailable parents, emotionally unavailable partners. It's what I picked in relationships, even though it was completely subconscious.

[@ashleyb1091]

This story is so sad, I could cry for her and I wish I could hug her…I hope she finds her way out of these and she deserves better.

[@Framokamc]

I was watching this while having my period, I was so emotional I wanted to cry the whole time, this poor woman

[@jadeinthewoods]

She started by describing him as a perfect partner except for __(blank)__. Once John got deeper, it was like “he asked to sleep with someone else at the beginning of this month”. OMFG! Are you kidding me, girl?! He is not a good man! That is not ok.

[@PatzConstantine]

I lost a baby many years ago. My ex-husband said he really didn’t want another kid anyway. My MIL said no one in our family ever had this happen before. Luckily my grandmother was so good to me. I was very young and was so distraught and cried for months. Listening to this brought all those feelings back again.

[@Wants2knowitall]

I wonder why he did not offer her therapy through that app he pushes? If anyone needed it, it’s this woman. I hope she followed through. Her little laugh after every painful disclosure tells me that she will discredit herself when no one else will do it for her. So sad.

[@NoMessJess1]

I feel for her, she is choosing not to come to terms with who her husband really is. About 6 years ago I was 12 weeks pregnant with our third child. We had trouble getting pregnant (took us 19 months after 2 very easy pregnancies prior). At this same time, someone we both knew called me and asked me to take her to get an abortion (this was her 6th or 7th abortion) and my husband was LIVID! It actually didn't bother me (her calling and asking) but my hubby's immediate response was "how dare her ask you that when she knows you're pregnant and what we went through". Even after over 20 years together, my hubby always puts my feelings first, because that's what he is supposed to do.

[@FoodFreedomUSA]

That’s a good man.

[@lilithowl]

What a weird and illogical reaction from your husband

Leave. There’s no reconciling with a clear psychopath. He lost a child and gave not a single care.

[@alexandracompany]

I was more or less in this lady's shoes and am still processing what I was going through. Listening to her though makes it so clear

[@Thespiritleads777]

Mark that down, girl. A lack of empathy is a red flag. She’s going to find out pretty quickly that her husband is definitely not someone she can rely on. That lack of empathy reaches demonic levels as the marriage progreses

[@BritneysProductions]

This was incredibly sad to listen to. I hope she is well now. Would love to hear a follow up.

In just a few minutes! What on earth DOES this guy have going for him??

[@beth90]

I’m flabbergasted that this woman actually said “I know… I need to work on that…” instead of calling in and straight up saying “my husband asked to be with another woman two weeks after we lost a baby!” Why wasn’t that her first and main concern?!? I do feel terrible for her. I know firsthand how devastating and traumatic and earth shattering pregnancy loss is. But… why is she so reluctant to see her husband’s assholery for what it is? ! I guess yeah she does need to work on that. She needs to work on improving her self-worth because she deserves so much better!!!

[@LauraDiSabatino]

O my goodness I had no idea I had named my miscarriage babies and carried them around! I mean I knew but I didn’t KNOW you know? Huh. Thomas and Elizabeth…. I’ve come to peace with it all but I feel like those names are tattooed on my heart.

[@seadragon1456]

This call is hard to wrap my mind around. The husband is trash. He’s for the streets! Stop defending him. Take off the rose colored glasses and see him for who he is. He’s not a nice man. He’s not a kind man. He’s not even a respectful man. He wants to mess with other women and the wife allows it to be the “cool” wife.

[@yhiontop]

It is not about how she sees him. It is about how she sees herself. Not deserving of anything better

[@vaska1999]

​@@yhiontop It's both.

[@mary_syl]

I think this level of low selfworth starts in childhood and was likely already established by her mother. She said her mother isn't very loving or caring so she modelled her adult relationships after that. She thinks it's normal not to expect love and care from those closest to you. It's very sad. It will take a lot of time and therapy for her to untie this knot and stop making excuses for those who aren't treating her right.

[@bettersecret1499]

He is perfect. Apart from yelling, drinking, flirting, dismissing me and wanting sex with other women. I am pretty against this 'just divorce him' trend but in this case ..JUST DIVORCE HIM

[@sherriflemming3218]

Exactly

[@rainbow-or3qr]

I had 3 miscarriages and it almost broke me. Looking back now I can’t believe I came out the other end. I had maybe one or 2 people who were supportive, some who didn’t want to talk as it made them uncomfortable and others who almost were offended by my grief and made me feel I had to hide it. The feelings when someone has a miscarriage are very real and shouldn’t just be shrugged off, the insensitivity of other people is unbelievable.

[@alexisz5570]

Ma’am, you’re not okay. I wish I could give you a hug.
