helpful PG sites...

SO, i've done (or others have) a lot of research since i got pregnant (i have known since i was a couple of weeks), and here are the sites that i found to really benefit me:

week by week...
text4baby - get free updates/texts (3 or so per week) on your cell regarding your pregnancy week #
BabyCenter -  weekly emailed updates
How Big Is Your Baby? - compares your baby's size to a piece of fruit/veggie and i love this one!!!
thebump - theknot is its sister, and it gives you a great checklist
Babble - all around great site!
Baby Gaga - a site you can link to Facebook... :)
Planning Family
Twin Pregnancy and Beyond - excellent site for twin pregnancies!  (courtesy of danielle)
Baby Weekly - love the easy, quick updates...
What to Expect Week by Week - a cute site based on the famous book. :)

note: once you deliver, update the sites above, and they'll start to send you weekly updates on your baby's progress. :)
