Care to dip a toe in my baby pool?

Forums and Message Boards
Over at Breastfeeding 1-2-3, Angela has provided an excellent list of breastfeeding forum and message boards - her Top 10 list. I tend to be more of a blogreader, than a message board lurker, so I appreciated seeing what’s out there. I definitely recommend checking it out!

Baby Pool
I keep mentioning this whole “I’m having a baby thing”, but it’s no lie. I am due to give birth in 2 weeks. Therefore, by 7/13 at the very latest, I should have a wee one sucking up all my free time. As such, I thought it would be fun to have a Baby Pool where you guess her weight and I will dispense some sort of prize. To give some background, I have gained 19 lbs so far. With my son, I gained 22 lbs and he weighed 7lb 7oz. So, what you are waiting for? Scurry out to the comments and make your guess!

    The list of forums is suddenly becoming very interesting to me - my son seems to be going on a nursing strike. He was two weeks late, so I’m not going to guess about your new one. I just don’t know.

    I’ll say 7 pounds, 6 ounces (and she’ll be born on my birthday, July 7th…I can feel it!).

    I”m gonna guess July 5 and 7lbs. 2oz.

    (Although 7/7/07 would be kinda cool, but you just know there are going to be some women who get specifically induced to give birth on that day, like those New Years babies, so then she’d have to share her birthday with even more people than usual.)

    7lbs 5oz… as far as date. I’m going to guess that it will be July 10th.

    Let’s see…July 13 is my (cool) sister’s birthday. So I’ll say July 13.

    Weight - 8 lbs even.

    I have to go with 7 lbs on July 7 (so we can be birthday buddies!) and then obviously her lucky number will have to be 7.

    Putting in Diana of Piffle’s guess:

    7 lbs, 8 oz
