Where do you get your info from?

Luckily I had two family members with pregnancy books I stole from their bookshelves. I did not have to buy them....Thank God. Prior to reading them for medical advice, I lived on google. Before I ate anything suspicious....before I buy fish I checked the mercury levels....when I have symptoms I look for natural relief online. I think some womem on here rely on this app for far too important info from their peers instead of doing the research themselves. That's scary. Some info online is a bit skewed snd we need an experienced mother's opinion, but when it comes to the health of the baby and your diet....one should not depend on mere opinion. Ok im done. Sorry.

Some women are clearly just searching for someone to enable their foolishness and ease their guilty conscience. It's sad to watch. I personally don't reply to any posts unless I have knowledge on the matter I've gained from a trusted source, ie my OB or a pregnancy book/article I've read. But hey, that's just me!

I agree with you guys but I also have to say a lot of the posts that I try to comment on are ftm or really any mom to be that is just checking yo make sure they aren't over reacting before calling their on or women who need emotional support/advice. I tend to ignore the other posts unless I am personally able to guarantee I know the answer...

Again I really hope everyone is at least researching on their own while waiting for answers on here

I love the "I did it everyday...my baby turned out fine" comments.... :-/

Once again... I agree! Sadly, common sense is not so common these days! Lol

Well Mommy, not everyone was born with common sense. ...

I totally agree! I usually do my own research then double check it with my doctor. The time a lot of women spend asking certain questions on here and waiting for a response, they could have called their OB or even a nurse or doctor at their local L&D for an educated answer.
