Recently attended gynae with my wife to have the devastating news that she had miscarried again. Even though this was early stages and common, we were made to feel it's just nature. My nursing background and experience accepts this. However not so for my wife. The news was devastating as her hopes had been shattered again.
In the consultation follow up by the nurse I felt she was just ticking the boxes. There was some empathy "I think" but it felt it was all a matter of course. The experience left us both numb with a bitter taste. I feel this outcome will make the next experience even more stressful if bad news is received again.
