Local Infertility Group

So tonight me and Hubs are going to a local infertility group led by a mental health practitioner. It apparently got started a year ago. I stumbled upon it when I was googling counseling for infertility/loss last week. Im actually kind of nervous about joining in a group where I dont know a soul. But I have been yearning for someone to understand...IN PERSON. I have so many online peeps that get it, but it would be so nice to have someone in the flesh get it.

    I'm really glad you found a group. I know it can be really helpful. I hope it works out for you. I just want to warn you (from personal experience) primary infertiles can be not so friendly toward secondary infertiles. I get why, having gone through both, but I got burned at a group. Hopefully yours is MUCH better and helps you heal. ((Hugs))

    I was wondering how it went too!

    I made my first friend at the clinic this morning. And wow it felt good to talk to someone in person who is also out of my normal social group.

    They were very friendly. I do think the fact that we have a child was an awkward fact, but I think it "helped" since we went through a long tough infertility journey to conceive him as well. So I can remember that. The moderator also experienced infertility(is currently experiencing? Im not entirely sure)...so that was actually really nice. I tend to talk A LOT when Im nervous. So I was trying to not talk as much. I was shaking I was so nervous when I was talking. lol. I do think we will go back.

    Oh good. I'm really glad it went well. I think if it's a good group it can be really helpful.
