Just simply to say hi. I thought I must be the only person with an ostomy in Doncaster, or it seems that way, but looking at the members list, it's good to see I'm not, which is great.

If you're expecting a child, it's an exciting time for you and your family. And there's no reason why having a stoma should negatively affect your pregnancy.

Hi, Heppy. Welcome to the group. Lots of people here with lots of different experiences to pull from. We are everywhere. Have you tried looking online for local support groups? There are some in Yorkshire. However, I am not sure if you have to drive like an American to get to them. :-)
