Good pregnancy links

As a soon to be father, I have compiled some outstanding links that will be useful to new moms and dads. First and foremost, the Olen Interactive Pregnancy Calculator is a nice timeline to monitor your's and baby's progress. There is also a place to see if others on the net are due at the same time you are. Sabrina Cuddy is a childbirth educator who has an excellent pregnancy page containing pregnancy FAQs and other vital information. The USENET group misc.kids.pregnancy is a popular discussion group although it would be advised to read the FAQ before participating.

Interested in breastfeeding? The La Leche League International are known as one of the foremost authorities on breastfeeding and have their own web page. The Whole Nine Months by HomeArts is a fascinating look at the exciting and sometimes agonizing journey of the childbirth process. These outstanding links can helf educate expectant mothers to yield a safe and informed pregnancy.
