I Want To Start A Pregnancy Loss Support Group.
I am from a very small town and there isn't anything along the lines of a pregnancy loss support group. Since I lost my little baby 2 months ago, I've been yearning to find other women who know how I feel. I've tried talking to people online, but it just isn't the same as having someone to hand you tissue. I can't be the only one around here that has gone through this. What steps do I need to take to start my own pregnancy loss group?

Your first step would be to network. Contact your local hospital, church or social service center. You may be surprised to learn that a support group for this may already exist in your town! If not, speak to administrators about gaining use of a room to hold your support group, put up fliers at church, etc. Once word gets out, I'm sure there will be many people looking for the same support! Good luck!

If you explain what you want to do, I am sure you can get a list of ladies from your local hospital. Your doctor might even be able to help you find ladies in the same position as you. When you get the list then all you have to do is contact the ladies and find a meeting place. If it goes well, you can form a not-for-profit organization to help with a loss such as this. Remember too, that it is not just the mother that suffers the loss, so you may be able to help families as well.

Why do you want to start your own. there are many other websites available on which you can join there cause one is for your convenience is as: www.nationalshare.org. Dear if you want your own then you can find one or more women to have the same loss in your town ask them for the formation of a group. they might love to join you secondly you can also give an ad in newspaper in different websites & other news week & magazines about your group then automatically from your town & other closer one can easily access you. But my personal advice is try to forget all this mishape that took placed earlier & try to have normal life with new baby... BEST OF LUCK
