Does anyone know of any online support groups to help parents cope with the loss of a child?

I gave birth to my little boy on November 12 but unfortunately he was stillborn (passed away on November 10).

I was wondering if anyone knows about any online support groups. I find talking about it helps to ease the pain but I find it a lot easier to type how I feel than actually verbalize it. I do have friends I can talk to but I fear that I may become repetitive and then nobody will want to talk to me anymore or spend time with me.

I've tried searching for forums or chat sites but I haven't been having any luck. My brain doesn't seem to want to function properly at the moment so that could be why.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you if you're able to help.

    hi Kayt, im so sorry to hear about the loss of your precious angel. It will help you to be able to talk to others who have gone through the same thing, that way you won't feel isolated. Wishing you well.
