Welcome to the new website!
Choice Moms is unveiling new content and resources on a daily basis. Check in here regularly to stay in touch with your favorite stages, topics and keywords.
1. Daily communication: Thanks to advertisers, this website now offers profiles of Choice Moms...expert insight about donor conception, fertility, adoption, home insemination, financial issues...and much, much more. Use the keywords and category headings (search capabilities coming soon) to find links and threads that interest you. Use the comments fields to share your own advice about finding childcare, working with a known donor, dealing with family that doesn't approve of your choice, and everything we face along the Choice Mom path.
2. Discussion board: The overwhelming growth of the Choice Moms discussion group in just a few years -- with more than 1,200 members -- led to a new forum that enables members to more easily find others who share the same stage and concerns. Such as those in the two-week wait process. Parenting multiples. Sharing commonalities in the lesbian/queer community. And simply Thinking about whether this is the right choice for them or Being a mom. Answer the questionnaire in the link below to become a member.
3. Events: Thanks to sponsors I will host seven events in 2010: Austin, Minneapolis, San Francisco, D.C., New York City, London, and Toronto. Register now to get early bird prices and weigh in on topics to be covered.
4. Audio Library: Thanks to California Cryobank and Sepal Reproductive Devices, we're building a content-rich library of the best of our Choosing Single Motherhood online radio show and Choice Chat podcasts, including the "Do I Have a Dad?" CD. Grouped here by topic as audio clips, radio show links and even a few full podcasts. Use keyword "podcast." Fresh interviews coming in 2010, including conversations with known donors and money management tips from Today's Show's Jean Chatzky.
As always, welcome to the discussion and welcome to the journey.
