Web Sites for Families
Friends and relatives, pregnancy and child care books, magazines and
most recently the Internet
provide answers to commonly asked questions.
On-line resources for
new parents are growing
every day. There are many agencies and organizations whose mission
is to offer information and
support. As always, be an informed consumer of Internet sources of
information. It's wise not to
assume the reliability of the information simply because it's on-line.
This information is offered
to supplement, not substitute for, the information and care you receive
from your local health care
provider.
Recommended Reading Resources
These books are suggested reading and meant
