One For The Books
http://danasbooks.wordpress.com
My name is Dana and I’m passionate about learning. My tools are simply books and the internet. With two young children, it’s difficult for me to read as much as I used to but I intend to use this blog as a sort of autodidactic headquarters; tracking useful links and my books: past, present and future.
Mommy 4-1-1
http://mommy411.wordpress.com
We are not super-mothers but we’ve been around the block. Our goal is to impart “real-mommy” knowledge and advice to help women who are: a) considering the step into motherhood (including adoption), b) pending mommies (pregnant or adopting), c) “heart” mommies (pregnancy or infant loss), d) new mommies, e) single mommies, f) step mommies and g) mommy-troopers. There are TONS of medical websites, consumer websites, magazine websites and personal blogs (some of which are on the Blogroll) with information that can be helpful for women in the above situations. Websites can be impersonal and blogs can be difficult to find. The goal of this site is to: a) act as a hub: offering personal stories and practical advice as well as helpful links and b) bring mothers together from all over (North America? the world?) to impart their wisdom and experience for others (check out our social network!). I wish there’d been a site like this when I was expecting my first and wanting to know what the heck kind of diapers to buy and what books would help the most.
