Hi Sweetie!
I just wanted you to know, you guys are NOT alone .... I think this is very common. We was also sat down and told that Emma's loss can have a negative impact on our relationship but at the time we just looked at each other and immediately shook our heads, thinking no way...
At first, we was inseperable... In fact, felt as if we gotten closer if that was even possible.. Before we lost Emma, we had an amazing relationship so we just couldn't imagine what they was talking about.... Well, about 4 weeks out.... Man, did things change!!! We no longer was on the same page... I was still devastated, couldn't do anything and he was getting up everyday and going to work as if nothing in the world happened... I now know, he was still devasted as well, just shows and functions differently....
One piece of advice I'd give would be ......Communication....
That is totally what saved us... We just had to start being very real and honest with how we was thinking, what we was thinking, our concerns, how each other was making the other feel.... Once we started doing that, WOW... Big difference...
I know you two will be fine, grief is a ugly monster that turns lives upside down... Just continue to love each other and try to be a lil understanding of your partner.... I know with me personally... My big lesson I had to learn was, Bill didn't grieve like I did and that was ok... Since he wasn't crying, upset, sad all the time, I was feeling like Emma wasn't a big deal to him, and boy was I wrong... So, I have to remind myself that he deals differently and it's OK ....
