I highly recommend going to support groups as soon as you feel ready. I went to my first support group a little over a week after my loss and found it so helpful to hear other people's stories and share mine with people who understood. You are not alone!

All of these groups listed are FREE!

Virtual Support Groups

Postpartum Support International (PSI)

I would recommend starting with one of the PSI support groups. As the name implies this is an international organization so people from around the world are encouraged to attend. They have a really consistent structure that is very helpful especially when new to going to support groups for pregnancy and infant loss. After several of their support groups my husband and I started to feel like the long introduction that had been helpful initially was too repetitive so at that point we preferred other support groups. 

• Termination for Medical Reasons Support Group

• Stillbirth and Infant Loss Support for Parents

• Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support for Parents

• Early Pregnancy Loss 

• Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support for Moms

They also offer support groups for pregnancy after loss as well as many other support groups around pregnancy and postpartum which can be found at their website.
