I found it via Pandagon when Amanda Marcotte was cross-posting here. Before I was even pregnant, I submitted an "Ask Alternadad" question. Once becoming pregnant, I couldn't find anyone really talking about being pregnant and having babies from a feminist perspective. And so, I turned to you all for help with a few questions: surnames, etc. When the site crashed, I actually connected with you all more than before. The fear of losing you was strong!

I think I found the site through another website - maybe Pandagon? Not really sure, but anywho, I'm certainly glad I did because you all are a fun and intelligent bunch. I love knowing that I can come here and ask a question or just share a story and not be judged harshly. The best part is the thoughtful responses that really make me think in a million different directions.

I found this website the first time I was pregnant and liked the group and its discussions. Sometimes I wish for more activity, but the discussions are always good and often funny.
I still don't know how to find you all on Facebook...

Are you pregnant? Did I miss the announcement? Congrats!

But of course. It's all the rage in Europe.
(I think this fetus has eaten my brain. Zombie baby!)

Ok, just as a note, Babble has apparently been acquired by Disney. I suspect there is literally no chance Disney would ever have been interested in this community and our conversations. I think the desire to sell out and make big bucks was literally doomed from the start.
(although, don't get me wrong, the artificiality run amok of Disney gives me glee).

I don't remember how I found OS but I am very glad I did. I've formed a few really awesome real life relationships and lots of great of interwebs based relationships.
