Sometimes, all we need is someone to talk to who understands what we’re going through. When you’re pregnant, you can be prone to solitary feelings when lonely, upset, afraid or confused. Help for pregnant women doesn’t need to be in form of money or gifts – true support costs nothing at all.
When friends and family aren’t available or don’t understand, speaking with other pregnant women can help you get through tough times and even form the foundation for lifelong bonds of sharing and friendship. Be happy to be pregnant – it’s good for your baby!
Here are five online resources where pregnant women can find free community support and camaraderie by connecting with other pregnant women who “get it.”

There are literally thousands more – and a quick search with your favorite search engine will help you find additional pregnancy-related communities online.
Everyone needs friends to help them through tough times. I’m thrilled to see so many women coming together to share support, to share their stories, and to share their lives with one another. What a refreshing splash of humanity in an oft-troubled pond.
