Chances are that you know a woman who has had a miscarriage.  It can be difficult to know how to respond when a friend experiences such a tragedy.I recently offered my professional insight on the topic to a Woman's Day article entitled "9 Things Never to Say to a Woman Who's Had a Miscarriage."  Here's a quick review of what not to say in this situation:1)  Nothing (acknowledge the loss; don't stay silent)2)  "You can always try again."3)  "It wasn't meant to be."4)  "At least you already have one."5)  "At least you weren't that far along."6)  "Don't tell [insert name of pregnant friend/ family member]; it'll upset her."7)  "At least you didn't know him/her."8)  "At least it happened before you bought anything for the baby."9)  "There must have been something wrong with the baby."Read the full article here of things not to say to a woman who has experienced a miscarriage.
