Hi All. I had an ectopic preg four years ago. 
My questions is about a friend of mine though. This site helped me more than I ever imagined it would. She has recently had a natural miscarriage and I wanted to know if there was a site similar to this that I could direct her to. She is so very heartbroken and I just really want to help her. Thank you all
Hi honey
I am so very sorry about your friend baby loss in any form is just so terribly hard and hits us all individually and differently but we tend to share common bonds so you are the prefect person to support her, because you understand her pain even if you don’t know how exactly she feels
The EPT is pretty unique I have discovered - we are the only people I know of who have a ‘live’ set of forums without censorship and hosts and moderators who are trained on hand for the technical stuff.
The Miscarriage Association do have a forum but no one can post without the contents of their post being reviewed first so it’s not very instant, unfortunately, but would give her contact with women who share her experience. The also have a number of groups around the country but again they aren’t overseen by trained professionals to the best of my knowledge and tend to be groups where people get together for a chat but they are found to be helpful by some. They do have a helpline but I am not sure how good it is - [You can locate them here
I had many, many miscarriages before my ectopic pregnancy and my heart really does go out to her](http://www.miscarriageassociation.org.uk/)
Hi, I’ve recenty had a natural (very early) mc too, there isn’t anywhere that’s half as good as this site but she could try babycentre (communtiy section) only trouble is like izzie said, there’s no official/medical advice it’s just women in a similar situation. I hope your friend is ok

Hey Jayden
You’re a good friend.
I don’t know where you are, but after I miscarried I e-mailed the Scottish branch of the Miscarriage Association asking for counselling - which their website says they provide - and they didn’t get back to me. I was in a real mess at the time too. I don’t know if the helpline was better and maybe they just don’t check their e-mails, but I just wasn’t up to having to verbally explain what had happened again.
Loads of sites have sections on miscarriage but nothing like the EPT - I think Fertility Friends and Mumsnet both have forums devoted to it. There are loads of blogs about miscarriage too.
I know you probably can’t interfere too much, but if your friend is really depressed and has problems sleeping and just can’t function normally, then it’s worth her going to see her GP - I got put on sleeping tablets after mine, which as a short term measure helped immeasurably.
I also found writing stuff down really helped me, and still does.
Thank you all for the information, I will pass it along to her. I just feel so badly for her. It breaks my heart to see her so broken. I know that feeling, ya know. She cannot harly function right now. I have been talking to her on a regular basis and I think she may need more help than what I can provide. She is just falling apart. I was too when I lost my baby. Know one really knows what to say to her. You can tell she is broken just by looking at her. I really appreciate this website and I am grateful for all the wonderful ladies here who helped me heal. I truly do not know where I would be without this site. Thank EPT!!
