Whoever designed life forgot to throw in an F1 option, and what a problematic omission that turned out to be is just impossible to calibrate. So the fact remains that all of us need help at some stage of the way, and if you’re planning to become a parent or have only recently become one, well, chances are you can use all the help you can get, and this site is a good place to get it from: BabyCenter is a global network of sites presenting a wealth of informative articles and advice to help plan and enjoy pregnancy, and ease the first stages of infant care: features shared by all sites include a variety of very useful calculators which can help you decide on an exercise plan, determine your baby’s arrival date, or what the best time of the month for baby making is.
One of the services users are raving about is the newsletters, which inform users on a weekly basis about the stages in pregnancy and child growth, and presents interesting ideas and initiatives to stimulate or educate. Each of the global sites allows users to create a profile and take part in the community and forums, including signing up for birth clubs (determined by month of expected birth) and meet other parents; being the India chapter, I was expecting the site to have some more country-specific content, like information on traditional rites, alternative medicine or native culture, as I reckon this would help parents be more informed on what society might be expecting of them, a service of great importance, especially if they are foreigners.
