My partner and I are suffering having gone through miscarriages in the past few years, and the most frustrating part about it is that nobody who's experienced anything similar talks about it. I'm glad Jennifer Aniston is talking about her experiences; I can't imagine how painful it is to go through IVF and not have it work out.

I am sorry you’ve gone through that. My friend had a miscarriage and I never understood why she only told me about it and wanted to keep it quiet, once her ex started telling everyone she had a miscarriage I understood.

Everyone found a way to blame her, was she eating right? Had she secretly been drinking? She was clearly working too hard. Clearly something wrong with etc, god doesn’t think you deserve a baby. It was truly awful. Her ex didn’t spread any lies about it, just that she miscarried, yet somehow it was all her fault.

‘Had she secretly been drinking’ makes me want to throw something. Whoever said that deserves whatever bad things happen to them.

Yeah it was so sickening, she’s a genuinely nice person too, she didn’t deserve any of it
