Love is the battery of life....

Hi,
There is no "protocol" what one sjould do in this situation, but the most human thing to do, regardless what were the reasons for you to separate, is to call her and say something like: "I heard the bed news, I know how you feel, do you need any help".   But: Do it only if you really mean it and only if you are really ready to help (whatever she needs). 
Best regards,

My condolences. A miscarriage is always sad, and there is little comfort to be found. What you both need is someone to listen to you, without judging your grief and without trying to belittle your loss. Unfortunately most people tend to try and comfort you with irrelevant phrases.

I'm not familiar with this state of the relationship, but you have both lost your child even if you're separated. If she can find comfort with you, and you can find comfort with her, you should probably try to go through this together. If she wants you to leave her alone, respect her wishes, and try to find solace somewhere else.

In any case, in most miscarriages, the physical comfort passes after a few days, or a couple of weeks, but the emotional scarring could get longer to heal.

Live simply, love generously and  care deeply.

 

Hi,

    So sorry about the loss of your unborn child.  Even if you two are separated, you need to comfort her, after all this was both your baby.  You may not agree with other issues that's why you two are separated, but for the sake of compassion, you need to comfort each other.

   Who knows, maybe this will get you back together and I really hope you will get back together.  If the separation does not involve any kind of abuse or any cheating,  perhaps you two can patch things up.
