You weren't meant to do this alone.
We can help you find care. These groups help you find your people. Real moms, real questions, any hour of the day. Here are the ones we trust and send women to.
Private means honest
Most of these groups are private, so what you post stays with members. A lot of them allow anonymous posts too.
Moderated by moms
Every group here has active volunteer admins who keep things kind and on topic.
Pick one, not ten
Start with the one that fits what you're carrying right now. Introduce yourself. That's it.
