Regional Forums?

Are there any forums that connect people in regions of the US? Does anyone know?

For example, I live in Wyoming and would love to talk with people in the Mountain States (Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, Utah) to discuss doctors, RE cliinics, local things, etc.

I still like connecting with people in the different forums from all over, but thought it might be good to connect on a local level as well.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I'm going to post again to see if I get any responses. Is it taboo to ask what areas (regions) people are from?

TTB - I think that regional forums are a good idea. I know that occassionally there are threads from different areas. I have not met a lot of people from the Mt. states. That might be why there is light response to the post.

You could post in the general infertility forum and title the post something like "Anyone from the Mountain States". Not sure if regional forums exist on other sites.

Thanks AmyinOhio and Lovingwife ... appreciate the posts back. Amy - I'm orginally from Ohio.

Perhaps I'll start one for Mountain States.

I emailed the webmaster and asked about creating new forum under General Infertility Support for a regional support system.

If anyone agrees or thinks this might be a good thing, please post.
