When couples grieve pregnancy loss at different paces and in different ways

My partner and I lost our first pregnancy four months ago and we've been grieving so differently that I sometimes feel like I'm mourning alone while living with someone who's also in pain. We both feel guilty about how we're handling it and how we're not showing up for each other the way we thought we would.
