    - The couple felt very detached after the lose of their child. Whatever problems they had before they lost the child grew bigger because of their bitterness towards one another. 
    - This did not sway either partner away from having children again. They stayed open to life.
    ADVICE:
    -  Instead of battling against each other because of the guilt of losing a child, work together to repair each other. ]]>     2018-04-09 14:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rileigh_norman/jthlpijjmm9b/wish/249838274     Insight on pregnancy: rileigh_norman https://padlet.com/rileigh_norman/jthlpijjmm9b/wish/249845059
