Support group in St.Louis

l3lucy · 10-23-2006, 10:16 AM

Hello one and ALL-- A few of us in the St. Louis area have been talking about starting a support group for those of us dealing with Infertility issues. The plan is about encouragment, support and INFORMATION SHARING. Some of us who have been talking would appreciate the personal interaction..becuase as we all know expressing emotions on line can be hard to convey.
If you are interesting in starting such a group please message me and i am coordinating this group. I know the holiday's are around the corner but if there's enough interest we might have a quick gathering before all the wackiness of the holiday's takes over.
I would appreciate any and all thoughts...

Not sure if you are aware that there are FREE educational and emotional support groups for those experiencing Infertility and those interested in Adoption. They are not affiliated with any Drs. office. The not-for-profit group is called Infertility and Adoption Support, Inc. They have monthly meetings which are run by volunteers (who have all been through IF and/or Adoption themselves). Their site is www.infertilityandadoption.org.
I'd hate for you to coordinate something that is already available and up and running.
I hope you are able to check out some of their meetings. They really helped me on my darkest days and I have made life-long friends from the meetings.

Good luck.
