Where do I start?
Ack! New to the site, this is my second pregnancy. So many categories that I fit into and I just don't know which to go to!
My first pregnancy was 16 years ago, our daughter will be graduating high school while we potty train her sibling. I am 35, active military and oh yeah by the way it took us over ten years and multiple miscarriages to conceive a child that we were told would never ever happen. Yipes!!

Re: Where do I start?
Lurk, lurk, lurk. Check out all the boards that you may be interested in and figure out the vibe. If you like it, lurk a little more, then do an intro post. It may sound a bit formal, but I like to say it's like barging into a conversation at a cocktail party. Better to introduce yourself first
If you start posting and don't like the responses, just drop that board and find another that fits better with you.
FWIW, I visit 5 boards on the Nest and 5 on the Bump on a daily basis. You don't *have* to only go one one. You'll see a lot of overlap.
Congrats on your pregnancy and GL!
By chance is there a dictionary to explain all the little shortcuts here? SCH? DS? Some I get, a lot I don't!
At the bottom left of this page is a Bump Glossary. It should have a majority of the abbreviations.
