Former lurker, new poster hoping to be welcomed  

post #1 of 18
Thread Starter 
This is horrible, but I have been lurking around for a while and finally got the guts to post in the Diapering forum and I thought I should introduce myself elsewhere, too.

I am due with my first at the end of the month after years of trying and even spending a couple weeks on a waiting list. This pregnancy has been a complete dream. Until now with prodromal labor and constant phone calls and emails from those who I know mean well. KWIM?

I have learned more from this site than I think anywhere else on the net. But it has been intimidating because you all seem so close and know so much!

We are very interested in Attachment Parenting, EBF, and CDing and as a SAHM who is impatiently waiting to go into labor- the internet has become my best friend during the day. All of my friends work during the day, so I am hoping to make some friends here before my LO arrives and I will be really lost and in need of advice.

So, HELLO!

Welcome!! I'm a long time mdc member, but I go through spells of lurking more than posting. It's really nice here, and you're in the right place if you're looking for support on all the things you listed.

Thank you for the welcome!

Thanks for the kind words. Now can anyone do something about this LO who is teasing me with prodromal labor?

And Faerieshadow- I am in the Orlando area. Where are you? I have family all over this state.

I'm on the space coast... so maybe not that far away from you depending on what side of Orlando you're on!

Just keep thinking that prodromal labor is doing something! It can definitely get tiring... I think I whined about it plenty over here lol.
