PREGNANCY TEST UPDATE

[xfoundinabottle.livejournal.com]

I posted a couple weeks ago about home pregnancy tests, thanks to everyone who provided input...

I finally made it to the doctor's last thursday (my doctor disappeared on a medical leave last minute).. and....

We're having a kidlet! wooohooo!

Does anyone know any good pregnancy communities?

I'm not sure of any at the moment, but i want to congratulate you on your new one one the way :)

Congratulations on the kidlet! 1ontheway looks good to me, relatively active.

Congratulations! :)

The birth should be in a good hour!

birth_is_normal is an active, interesting community with tons of resources - lots of smart mamas there!

[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and _pregnant_ aren't too bad. If you're the crunchy-type (like me) there's [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. For general parenting things there's parenting101. I'm a member of all of those communities. They're all fairly active and have a decent cross-section of people as well as some very knowledgable people.

You'll also be able to find a community (or two) specifically for women due the same month as you. That way, you can share gripes and stories with people at the same stage as you. I don't know when you're due but...here:

[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], babies_sept2007 and (if you're newly-newly pregnant) [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]

Congratulations and good luck!

Talk to my lj friends blognotfound and scenicbeauty - they both have several kids and are both pregnant, and know every pregnancy community, on and off lj - and can point you to the best ones.

Congrats!

Hey congrats, im pregnant too due 18th aug. im only 19 so i did have a bit of a panic at 1st but i registered at ivillage.co.uk theres a lot of lovely people on there that say just the right things to make you feel better :) theres a different board for each month your babies due (for me Aug 07) so you get to know everyone on there. just introduce yourself by posting everyone is really friendly. im not sure if theres an american site if you live there. but its good to find out about lj community's too

Congratulations! You've gotten some great suggestions, but I'll add that pregnancy questions that relate to reproductive health and well-being are always welcomed in vaginapagina, too!
