The lady called me back to discuss going to the group tomorrow night and seriously i almost broke down crying on the phone to her because nobody has ever talked to me like that about my miscarriages. She referred to 'my babies' whereas from everyone else IRL i just get stuff like 'there was nothing in there' or other things that basically that deny i actually lost anything. very wierd to hear those types of things IRL.....she wanted my dh to attend the meeting too, but i doubt he will, he basically thinks i should go because i'm psycho regarding my losses and doesnt understand that how i feel/felt was normal. she says that if i can get him to come he'd realize that i was normal and not crazy, so i will try to get him to come maybe to the next one after tomorrows meeting. i just dont even know if i can talk about this stuff out loud to someone IRL, but she also said it's cool if i just go and sit and don't say anything....phewf

That sounds like a wonderful idea! I hope you can convince hubby to go, I think she's right, it could open his eyes a bit. Guys just have a hard time grasping at feelings and emotions sometimes.

Let us know how it goes!

Thats so awesome, I wish there was a group around here for infertility support, I would love to go talk to other woman who have experienced the same thing I have.

Im so desperate for some kind of something like that, I signed up for a TeleSeminar on Resolves website for recurrent miscarriages (Resolve is a great website for people with infertility issues just so you guys know! Im trying to get more involved)

I'm so glad you found a support group!! They are so nice to have!!! I've been to a support group at our church that sort of for everything but I loved it because I didn't feel so alone!!! Let us know how it goes!

That's great Sara! I hope you can get your DH to go!!

i just googled miscarriage support group. it takes place in a church but is organized by a non profit group for bereaved parents. i hope you girls can find an infertility support group. i almost feel a tad better just knowing i'm going there tomorrow. its wierd. the phone call already was just like so helpful, like nobody IRL ever asked me if i felt ok taking care of payne, but she heard him cooing and so i told her i was watching him and she asked that....and like every doctor i go to just seems like they wanna get me in and outta there so quick, i feel like they just dont wanna be dealing with these issues cuz they are such a downer, but i just didnt have that same feeling talking to this lady. oh the other great part about the group is that everyone there has experienced a loss, even the facilitators, so it will be nice to know i'm surrounded by people who actually do understand.

That sounds so great that you have found a group like that, Sarah. I really hope your DH goes so he can understand what you are going through a little better.

[soImarriedAnerd]

I'm glad you found it something to help

[Trannyfromtheuk]

It sounds like your going to benifit so much from this support group, I hope you can get DH to go along also x

[LuvsPecanPie]

So glad that you have that group to talk to! I hope that it helps!

[LisanAndy]

I hope it helps you hun, that would be great!

[CandaceDianne]

I think the group will help!!! {{{{HUGS}}}}

[*krista*]

That's awesome! I really hope they help you heal. I'm sorry your DH isn't more supportive. Hopefully he will go to one of them with you.

I think it's a great idea to go to the support group. I understand that it may be hard to open up but I think it will do some good. You may end up feeling quite comfortable speaking with the other ladies since they've all been through the same thing. I hope it goes well. KUP.

[midnight_starr]

I'm so glad you found the group, I sure hope it helps you out!!

[szczepanski]

I'm so glad you feel better even after the phone call. Hopefully once you go and DH sees how great it makes you feel then he will attend one with you.

When I had my miscarriage, my MIL's friend who is a grief counselor at a hospital (they work there together) sent me a package of all sorts of information on grief, loss and healing. It helped me so much to realize I wasn't alone in my grieving.

[Chelnae6]

wow thats a blessing in disguise!!! Glad that there are groups like that IRL. I hope DH attend attend atleast 1 session.

[ScottishBrit]

Im glad you found something great! Maybe when you go to a few meetings and he see's how it's helping you that he may go?

[IamMom]

Oh Sarah this is awesome to hear....I really hope it is good for you....I think support groups are great things....I hope your DH goes too and can learn to sympathize with how hard this is on you as a woman/mother/etc.
