Would you be interested in blogging about miscarriage for the MN campaign?

Is this something that the MN Bloggers Network could help publicise?

I know it is asking a lot, to blog about your experiences - I never have and I would find it difficult - but it would be for a very good cause.

Or if you are lucky, and have no personal experience of miscarriage, perhaps you could do a blog about the campaign.

I wondered about doing a blog hop similar to the one that MichelleTwinMum and Hello Gemma did for the Save the Children campaign.

I will email RowenMN, who is coordinating the campaign, if there are a few of you interested in joining in. The campaign is set to kick off later this month.

Hello lovely people,

Thanks so much for this idea. Let me ask the Top Brass about it and I will try to get back to you ASAP.

Hello again,

Elinor (MN Bloggers supremo) will post later on this week to give more details, but I can tell you now that she thinks it's a good idea. Thanks very much for suggesting it.

@FrauLindor

Could I ask those who would like to host a guest blog post to sign in here? Then if any non-blogging members of MN would like to get their story out there - even anonymously - then we could offer them a place to tell it.

I would be happy to host a guest post one day and tell my own story a second day.

Thanks for suggesting this, FrauLindor - and to everyone who's volunteered. It's a great idea, and this sounds like a good way to get organising it.

Here's a bit of info on how the network can help MN with its campaign work the week of 10th October.

We can get the word out to other Mumsnetters, for anyone who'd like to take part.

We can help promote your blogs a couple of ways: we can feature them on the site and spread the word through Twitter and Facebook.

And we could also curate some of the guest posts to promote on the site and prompt a conversation.

I'll be in touch when we've got some updates.

Hi all,

We'd love those who're interested to write or host a blog post about miscarriage in support of the Mumsnet Miscarriage campaign this October. Mumsnet will be promoting the Miscarriage Code of Care and getting the message out into the wider world. Through blogging and tweeting, you can really help to spread the word - and as Elinor mentioned above, we're on hand to give you all the help you require...

@breadfortheboys

Elen, for those of us happy to write about our experiences but without a blog (or appropriate blog for the subject) should we submit our work to you to link up with an appropriate blogger? Is there a date by which such work should be submitted?

Hi breadfortheboys,
Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, we think it'd work better - and more organically - if you self-organise, rather than have us issue orders! Have a look at this thread and see who's agreed to host a guest post about miscarriage. Then you can PM one of those bloggers, asking if they'd mind hosting your post. (FrauLindor, cheria, tee2072 and BloggerAJD have all offered to host).

@kathywhite

If I write a blog about my experience or to promote more awareness, what links should I include?

Hi kathywhite,

The campaign is planned for the w/c 10th October, and we'll post before then with details of links to the Mumsnet Miscarriage Care Campaign so you know where to point your audience.

Hi there bloggers,

The MN Better Miscarriage Care Campaign launches today and we'd love you to blog in support of the campaign. Go to the Miscarriage Survey for the latest facts and figures, or find out about the Mumsnet Miscarriage Code of Care. If you want to do more for the campaign, or would rather write a letter than blog about it, here's how you can spread the word.

Thanks again for all your support!
