I was thinking I miss my check-ins! I was part of the infertility board which had check-ins while cycling, then graduated to PAIF where we had check-ins for each trimester, now I have my little one I miss that bonding with people going through the same things as me. I roam SAIF, but don't feel as connected.
What do you guys think? We could have one for different age groups, like a 0-3 month check-in. I have roamed my BMB, but feel more connected to the infertility crowd.
Let me know if interested, if so, what age groups should we do. Or should we just have one check-in for new mommas.
Are people still here? I'm going between boards right now.

Ok, I'll get one started!!! Lets just do one check-in since we are a small group. All are welcome It'll be fun. If the group eventually gets really big, we can split it up into age groups then.

I would love to join. Is this where I belong now? I was in the IF group during our IVF journey, then joined PAIF once we got pregnant with twins. Now, my twin girls were delivered via emergency C-section at only 25w5d last Sunday and are in the NICU for many future weeks. I checked out the Micro Preemies group but it's not very active. Is this a welcome place for me?
Yes, of course we will take you in with wide open internet arms. I've been stalking you anyway so this will make it easier. Hugs and prayers for you and your LOs.
