Hello ladies!! Hoping this will reach your devices and we can get this group regularly active again... I wish I could @Shami (the creator) but unfortunately, I am a few weeks new to the app and have yet to figure some things out... the fact that comments aren’t in chronological order really irks me (could it be my personal settings?!)...

Anyway, I am an Afro-Cabo Verdean woman (Woman of Color) from Boston... where we are many, but very few are discussing TTCing while African American.. so I was feeling really blessed to find this group in a predominantly white app.. this is always usually the case when I join apps like these (I was pregnant 1x before at 28yo and miscarried)...

We know that statistics for Black Maternal Health, and wellness in general, are staggering... and yet, when we create groups like these, they’re underutilized. I find it strange... and being the psychotherapist that I am I want to uncover why, but feel like my energy could be better directed at getting this going again...

I’m 36yo, newly married and actively TTCing for the first time. My (Haitian) husband and I are trying for our first child (he has none himself and is 39yr), and we are 1 month in. It would be really nice to have some BIWOC to lean on for support, share advice, share stories, share triumphs and tribulations with...

I am going to msg the creator as well... but really hoping we can make this group more active! Do we need more than one person as admin? Weekly share ideas? Weekly prompts?

Or let’s share what we would like to see shared in the group? What do you feel you need from a group like this?

I am grateful for this group and really want to see it thrive!!!
