Expectant moms can find kindred spirits on our Web site
Advertiser Staff
Because pregnancy can brings such highs and lows, it can be nice to share the experience with another mom due the same time as you. That's where HawaiiMoms.com comes in — the Web site makes it easy to find other expectant mamas at the same stage as you and trade stories (and sympathy).
Log on and go to the Expecting Moms forums, where each mom is encouraged to fill out a fun questionnaire and post it under the month she's due. The questionnaire helps moms share their experiences by writing on such topics as "Changes you've experienced in your routine, your body, your thoughts" and "How you broke the news to your spouse/family."
On that latter question, one mom, whose screen name is sweetami, wrote: "My husband was there when I read the test, but we had a false alarm a few months prior, so he wanted to wait until I had the blood test. Long story short, his boat was leaving the day after we read the home test, and I got my blood test after dropping him off at the pier. I reached him only 20 minutes before they went out to sea! I called my family minutes later to tell them all the good news."
