m/c support group?

I have noticed that this board is becoming more active again. Chat Icon I wondered if some might find it helpful to meet up with other women who are going through this as well. I am in no way suggesting that this should take the place of speaking with a professional, if you need to, but know the comfort I find in GTGs w/ other people (in my case dealing with infertility), and thought that maybe someone would find comfort in this as well.
I would think if people wanted to get together, maybe we could have one in eastern suffolk, one in western suffolk (or just suffolk as a whole), etc...depending on how many people are from where. Not necessarily a monthly GTG or anything like that, but more a meeting where people could connect with others, and maybe find someone who lives close to them to have an extra support system.
I think it's important to not feel alone during this time. I know that family and friends are there, but sometimes it's easier to go through it with someone who truly understands, because they are walking in that path as well. Chat Icon My m/c could've been a chemical or an etopic- they said they'll never know. Though I have my scars, I was fortunate that mine was very early on, as I know some of you were much further. Chat Icon Anyway, I just wanted to put it out there... let me know what you think. Chat Icon

Don't you know I'm the light of the party Chat Icon Chat Icon j/k. I think it would be really wonderful if you could make it... and I promise to bring a box or 2 of tissues. Chat Icon
I know we're all at different stages w/ how we're healing from our losses (if we're at that stage yet), as well as different stages when our losses took place. I think it would be good for all of us to be able to interact with one another. Chat Icon

I know a bunch of us are in Suffolk county. If anyone is in Nassau or Queens, etc... please FM me and let me know (or post on here). Depending on who is up for meeting it would either be around exit 49 or out east more. Chat Icon

Re: m/c support group?

I'm not really up for meeting just yet, still coming to terms with this. If there's another gtg in the future, then it would be great if it was in Nassau (I'm in Howard Beach Queens, not far off from the Nassau border).

Re: m/c support group?

My recurrent m/c (2 in a row) brought me to this board, and I would love the opportunity to meet with other girls going through the same fears and losses. I live in eastern suffolk, miller place. Keep me posted!
