Congrats to all parents-to-be, and welcome to the 2018 Parents group.
Joining the group means you’re able to create topics like this one in the “2018 Parents” category. These topics will only be visible to other people who’ve joined the group (and mods like me). This means you can treat it more like a social gathering, as opposed to sticking to wide-interest themes of other forum categories.
I’ve created this topic as an example, and also to move some posts from the “About the 2018 parents category” topic.
Hope you enjoy getting to know each other within this group, and feel it’s useful as a kind of “mini NCT” to get to know local expectant parents better.
Let me know if you have any questions - otherwise, I’ll leave you to it, as Liz and I are not (yet) expecting…
