I guess I should introduce myself. I am a soon to be mom (due in September). I found Mothering at Barnes and Noble and think it is a great alternative to the "traditional" parenting magazines. I have spent time on more mainstream forums regarding babies/child raising and am happy to find a place where I won't be regarded as being strange or preachy for all the things I want for my child (a "natural" birth, breastfeeding, cloth diapering, and a DH who is taking 3 months of paternity leave after I have to go back to work).
