We lost a pregnancy 4 years ago and my wife had to go through labour, I stayed home to look after our son and her mother was in the hospital with her. I wasn’t there how she needed me but she didn’t know what she needed, I thought keeping things together was the right thing while she grieved but she needed more from me, now she resents me. How can I begin to put things right?

Hi @Ben85, welcome to the community, though I’m sorry for the loss that brings you here. I think many of our members would be able to relate to your experiences and the feeling of having needed to be the one to keep things together.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support soon, but I wanted to share these links with you in case it was something helpful for you and your wife to explore:
- Sue Ryder Online Bereavement Counselling is our free online counselling service which we offer via video chat. It’s for anyone who has been bereaved
- Relate provide relationship counselling to couples
I hope you find the community a support; please do keep reaching out to us.
Take care
