We are moms with IBD and we’ve created a safe space for other moms affected by IBD to share their journeys with each other. #IBDMoms
IBDMoms started with a hashtag.
The IBDMoms is a safe space for moms affected by IBD to come and commune, chat and cry, ask and answer, laugh and laugh some more. Founded by health advocates & moms, Brooke Abbott & Amber Tresca, the IBDMoms started from the two friends being able to share experiences and stories with one another, and other moms with IBD, without reservation or misunderstanding. After receiving a great response from their first IBDMoms hosted twitter chat, they decided to build on the idea to help strengthen the community of moms who are often disregarded when it comes to motherhood.
Through community connections, educational programs, and legislative advocacy, the mission of IBDMoms is to strengthen the community of moms who are often forgotten within the chronic illness space.
Welcome to our community! We are so glad you stopped by!
xo,
Brooke & Amber
Hi fellow IBD moms! I didn’t know group existed and excited to see that it does. Being a mom and suffering from chronic illness is so isolating.
