Women, "I miscarried last week, my husband and I have been trying for years and we really thought this was it."
Men, "You think that's bad? Have you been to the DMV?".
Reminds me of that old joke about how guys will get the flu and be like “this is the worst experience anyone has ever had happen to them OMG”
Meanwhile women and people AFAB literally have periods and may even give birth…
Poor anon. Should've said that research found miscarriages to be more common than previously believed and that this specific one likely wasn't the first and definitely not the last.
It's these little details that make all the difference...
"I know this is awful, but it'll probably happen again."
I don't know, chief. Probably not the best approach.
Comment was sarcastic and dunking on op for being socially stunted.
Look on the bright side, now you and hubby can have your DNA tested and find out how incompatible you are and that you have about a 25% chance of producing a healthy offspring. Yay, knowledge!

Depending on the woman, this will either help, or shatter them.
The actual odds are around 50% self abort. Mostly within the first month. 10-20% happen between 1 and 3 months. Critically, almost none of the risk is down to the mother. It just happens.
I couldn't get the fear out of my wife's mind on this. All I could do was quantify it, and lay the groundwork that it wasn't her fault if the pregnancy failed.
When I had a colleague who had 3 heartbreaks, and she was expecting her 4th we treated her with proper kid gloves, no carrying, no stress. It felt like a team effort.

It's best to just drop the factoids and offer emotional support in situations like this.
DMV?
Department of motor vehicles.
Kraftfahrzeug-Zulassungsbehörde
Sehr edel Zuhausi.

Notoriously a long line you have to stand in to get your drivers license.
Their fam is partying it up in the dmv line
Lol anon's a dumbass. I work in healthcare and miscarriages are pretty common and for most people it's pretty easy to get pregnant again, by the story she wasn't admitted to the hospital so the pregnancy couldn't be very far. So it's not that big of a deal. That said, even if it isn't a big deal if you see someone crying you don't crack jokes lol. Have some tact and empathy. All that if the story was real, which it isn't.
The problem was the joke sucked. He should have reported her for murder to the government of Alabama, as a prank.
