Change in Asperger's and autistic disorder diagnosis | Sunshine Coast Daily

CHILDREN who could previously be diagnosed with either autisic disorder or Asperger’s Syndrome will now all be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.

Miscarriage and Stillbirth Support Groups

The two main organisations I found to be helpful after my miscarriage, are SANDS (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Support and Bonnie Babes. SANDS Queensland is now on Facebook and I think it's a great idea

https://www.facebook.com/SandsQueensland/. They also have a Blog Spot http://www.sandsqld.blogspot.com.au/

SANDS also has coffee mornings and holds Remembrance Services to commemorate babies who have died under 20 weeks. They also offer a listening ear, run by volunteer parents who have been through a similar experience.

Bonnie Babes Foundation had a coffee table book which they put out once a year, called "Pride of the Nation" (our son was in the 2008 edition!). They also had a forum on their website (now defunct).
