642nd Issue of the LFCA

Welcome to today's edition of Connections Abound. The point of Lost and Found is to level the support playing field. When LFCA works correctly, the newest blogger with the smallest readership can receive the same level of support as the oldest blogger with the largest readership. Anyone can submit news to LFCA by clicking here.

Lost and Found is open to anyone in the infertility, pregnancy loss, adoption, pregnancy-and-parenting after infertility, assisted conception, living child-free after infertility or loss community (as well as anyone I inadvertently missed on that list). Please support the list as well as anyone posting announcements below.

• Blog Move: Heath.er writes, "Ok, so basically my mother in law was found stealing all my pictures, etc. and being a heifer about it, so I DELETED MY BLOG! Yep, I did. BUT, I started a new one--with the old stuff imported on my very own, self-hosted spot. SO, this is where I am now, and I really want everyone to come and see me again!" Go over to the new space.
