It's been frustrating to find websites that have rich and interesting content that covers parenting, pregnancy, birth, and romantic life after babies. A lot of the websites are difficult to use, ugly to look at, covered in advertisements, all about mass consumerism, and did I mention covered in ads?

To give you an idea of what I'm personally interested in as a parent, (and currently unable to find in one resource):

• Choices in natural birth
• Physical fitness: pregnancy and beyond
• Fitness WITH your child
• What the hell to make for dinner...good stuff that doesn't come out of a box
• Fun activities to do at home with the kids (like finger painting with ketchup and jello...not)
• General advice: sickness, travelling, tantrums, etc.
• Sex and romance
• Time saving ideas
• Resource of regional doctors, doulas, and mid-wives
• Resource of regional events and classes
• ...and just great all around stories!

....like I said earlier, if you've already found a website or magazine
that offers all of this, let me know and I can ditch this idea. BUT! If
you're interested and have some ideas, let me know.

I don't have a name at this point either. PersnicketyParent.com?
ManicMomAndDad.com?

Just kidding.
Give me a holler.
Thanks
