To experience the elation of learning you are pregnant\, only to feel the despair of discovering you have lost that pregnancy\, is a multifaceted loss. It is the loss of a baby\, a part of yourself\, your health\, control\, innocence\, potential\, relationships with others\, the future\, and on and on. \n\n\n\nA pregnancy loss is challenging enough to experience under the best of circumstances\, with the most support and understanding. However\, during the pandemic it has been much harder due to social isolation and distancing from family\, friends as well as medical caregivers. This virtual support group is being offered for those grieving the loss of a very much wanted baby in these stressful times and is also designed to help with the increased anxiety with trying to conceive and being pregnant again after pregnancy loss. Members are invited to stay in the group all the way through their next pregnancy. \n\n\n\nThe group is FREE for all participants. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required at least 48 hours before the group event. You must be a current SGF patient and provide the office you go to and your doctors name. An email will be sent to you with a consent form that must be filled before you can attend the virtual group. When you fill out the consent and return it to the group leader via email\, you will then receive an invitation with a link to a HIPAA compliant Zoom meeting. Please note that the group may be canceled if there are too few people registered. The group leader will contact you by phone or email if the group will not be held as scheduled. \n\n\n\nFor more information or to sign up\, please email Mia Joelsson.
