Why is there no support group for my condition?

Organizations that support people during pregnancy and postpartum submit their information voluntarily. This database is constantly growing as new organizations request to join.

If you know of an organization that supports people with your condition, you can request that they join the database by referring them to our support group webpage. You are also welcome to complete this form if you lead or work for a relevant organization.

Maila Maternity provides this information as a convenience to our users. We do not promote or endorse participation in any specific organization, charity, or foundation. We make every effort to ensure that the details for each entry are as current as possible, but this information is subject to change without notice.
