HI I am in Canada.

I'd love to add you to the list. I have 5 volunteers in Canada, but they're pretty spread out. The more, the merrier! Just send me an email or PM with your email address and general location. Thanks. :)

New and wanting to find a HG pair

Postby not alone » May 24, 2005 9:00 pm

My name is Lara and I was pregnant and had a very severe case of HG last fall. I terminated my pregnancy, but am still reeling from the experience. I'd love to pair up with someone else from Colorado. I can provide support and would also love to receive it too. Thanks.

Welcome, Lara. I have a number of volunteers in Colorado, so just send me an email with your general location and email address, and I'll get you on the list and lined up with someone near you. We have many women here who've terminated due to HG, and I can also get you in touch with one of them.

Hi,

I'm interested in the buddy system but not sure how it works, or how much I would really have to offer. I have two other friends who are HGers and being able to talk to them about things really helped me. If I could help someone else I would feel a bit as though being sick was worth something, but I don't want someone relying on me if I can't really help... kwim?

thanks

I'd love to add you to the list, Amanda. You'll be surprised how much you really can help another HGer. Just lending an empathetic ear makes a difference! And if I can't help with a specific need, I find someone here who can; you could always get in touch with me or put out a call for help to the board for expertise. Just email me, and I'll add you to the list! :)

I want to help!

Postby di » May 31, 2005 8:43 pm

Hi, I'm Di and is live in NSW, Australia. I am currently 5 days PP with a gorgeous daughter Jazmin, who was born by C-Section. I would LOVE to help anyone anywhere with their HG issues. I was still sick the morning I had little Jaz, so i have well and truly been there and done that. Aside from the CS wound, i feel great now, and want to help in any way I can!

Cheers

I will certainly add you to the list, Mandy. I know that other women who are facing the situation you've gone through will benefit from your experience. Take care, and let me know if there's any way I can help.

I posted in the other forum about being a buddy, I suppose I should have posted here, sorry about that! I am in New Hampshire and I will be glad to be a volunteer if needed.
