My wife is obsessed with the What to Expect when Expecting (WTE.com) website. She goes on about these ladies and pregnancy every day. They all are around the same due date so they compare each other, spouses, and families. Anyone else on this site during their pregnancy? She seems to love it.

I haven't been on that one, but I have a private board that I frequent that is populated by over 60 other women within 12-15 years of my age. There are usually two or more that are pregnant at the same time, so we commiserate

I used the WTE website with my first pregnancy and with this one too. I love getting the how your baby is growing emails every week. I didn't really use the birth clubs much though.

It is certainly fascinating to visit sites like that, but it's not healthy to dwell too much. Though some stuff is positive and uplifting there can be some negatives that can be worrying too. Keep it all in perspective, that's the main thing.

I was on a similar site in my pregnancy, but not that particular one. There were a wealth of articles, as well as birth clubs where we could chat and compare notes. It was useful.
