My friend has today had a TFMR (termination for medical reasons) the day after her 20 week scan revealed the baby hadn't developed properly and wasn't going to survive. As you can imagine this has happened very fast and they've gone from having the baby clothes at home and the car seat etc all ready to this today.
I don't know what the right thing to write in a card is. I don't know how to help her. She will have had to give birth - so her hormones etc will be all over the place too? The other complication is her job is very baby orientated (think nursery)
How long should she take off work? What did other people do in this situation? She wants to go back straight away but I think she's in denial and that can't be healthy surely.
Sorry my head is all over the place. Sorry if i've used any wrong phrases or explanation.
