| Did someone tell you about them? Did you stumble across them whlist googling?
I think i found AB when i was searching about 'stretching pains' as i was panicking and didnt know anything about pregnancy! So glad i did though i dont know how i would of got through my pregnancy or the first few months with Tayla if i hadnt of found a forum! |

| Before I got married I was a member of Your and Your Wedding and quite naturally, for some, you ttc after getting married and some of the girls on there were saying we've done the planning and getting married bit now time to get planning our babies so we went to another site that turned super bitchy (it wasn't netmums it was a different one) so a few of us joined AB as we just got so pissed off at how poorly run that site was, not been on for years so not sure how it is now. Now I come on here and AB. I'm not comparing the two because AB and Banda are very different. Xx xx |

| I think I wanted to see the stages of pregnacy when I first found out. wanted to know what 'it' looked like (how weird saying it!?!? now that IT messes up my lounge, pulls me house apart. wow life with out lillie... lol) I stubbled across AB through google I think.... went from there. Only ever went on AB to start did try bounty for a while but there were too many people and couldnt remember who was who so I gave up lol xx |

| I saw a friend on facebook had it but that was months before I found out I was pregnant, then when I was pregnant I did a search on google for baby development stages. I liked that the AB one remembered your due date and I sort of went from there |

| I googled for heart palps I was getting during the first trimester of pregnancy as I was sorta freaked out. I first joined an American site which I never got an answer or a response to and it was super cliquey! I googled again and I found a link to my answer which was on AB. Didn't realize it was a UK site til later on, but I was answered pretty much immediately. The rest is history! xxxx |
