A quick reminder: The internet, with it's blogs and discussion boards,
is an amazing source of information. As you learn more about pregnancy,
birth and parenting, always be mindful that there is another side to
every story. As an empowered parent, we encourage to gather information
and experiences and make decisions that are best for you and your
family.
