I'm going to give my wife a baby hamster after she miscarried two months ago
Do you think that is really appropriate?
Yes, she misses the baby, but she doesn't know what to do about it.
Are you sure that she wants the added responsibility right now? It is nice that you are trying to help her, but make sure that this is something that she is ready for.
I think she will be ready for it when I give it to her. Kids love pets.
It is good to be there for your grieving spouse. Adding a baby pet might actually cause her more hurt so I would caution against it. I think maybe taking her to therapy could help her better.
