I just read an amazing post on a loss mom's blog about how lonely it is to be a loss mom and how she wishes she could meet some of the amazing loss moms in the blog world in real life and then I read through many responses from other loss moms echoing the same. Although this was not my original intention for this blog I am wondering if this could be a place where we could connect in hopes of finding other loss moms nearby to share a cup of coffee with once in a while or an understanding visit.
So if you are interested in meeting other loss moms in your area you can comment on this post with the state you live in and then maybe from there people can try to connect and exchange more information in a not-so-public format?? I am thinking too maybe we should list if we have living children or not because I know that can make a difference to some in their support needs.
Thanks for the idea Kristin!

I saw you commented on my blog and so I came to check out your blog as well and I hope you don't mind if I "follow" yours.
I love this so much...it brings tears to my eyes to see all these angel babies but what a GREAT idea for a blog to help us all remember these sweet angels.
We live in Oklahoma. I delivered girl triplets at 24 weeks gestation. Two of them did not survive. Their sister is alive and well today. I would love to meet other "loss" mommies.
Thank you for this!
Love this idea. I live in Austin Texas. Madeline is my first born and lost her at 39 weeks. Would love to meet other baby loss moms. Have no other living children.
