My wife had two miscarriages and I can tell you that 8 months may not be enough for your wife to get over the loss of her child emotionally. My wife still cries on the anniversary of the due dates of both of those children, and it has been 6 years since the first one. You have to remember that in many ways, this is as devestating as the loss of a child, not just a terminated pregnancy. Whatever you do, do not take the attitude that she should just "get over it." That will create a LOT of resentment IMHO. Good luck and take the advice of the people on this board seriously.
