About

Before I got pregnant, I knew as much about pregnancy, childbirth & child raising as does the average American (very little & completely unaware of it.) Once I got my BFP & I started joining pregnancy communities & forums across the net, I started realizing just how much I didn't know and how many things that the TV, my family, even what many doctors say that is downright wrong. I could not believe how much misinformation (and simple lack of information) is out there, perpetuated by the very sources that pregnant women trust the most (from well-meaning family, to media programs, to the OBs themselves.)

Thus began a great many months of researching. I was blessed to have a lot of time to do plenty of reading & learning on the subject(s), and as my pregnancy wound down, I found myself constantly distributing the knowledge & links I'd accumulated. It was then that I realized that I could combine those things with all my ideas for reviews and features that had been swimming around my head, and turn them all into a parenting-focused blog. And so, here we are!

Oh, and hello, I'm Ameya. =)  This is the outlet for all my family stuff, but I have a personal blog over at wonder & wander as well.
