Lots of resources! Having a baby does come with lots of tips from friends and family alike. Always trust your instincts..you are the parent.
Thanks for posting so many great sources in one place.
Great resources!! I don't have babies anymore (they are big kids now!) but I will pass this along to a friend of mine who is expecting her second! Thanks!

Nice list. I am a part of a mom group locally that also has an online Facebook group where we are very active with sharing advice, asking questions of each other, etc. It is so helpful!
Great list! Parents are never really prepared with the first baby. It's an on the job training!
What a great List! I usually use webMD but never heard of kidshealth. THanks for sharing
This definitely seems like a good list! I'm not a parent yet - The thought of where to start scares me. At least now I know there are some awesome resources out there, for when that time does come.
This is an excellent list of resources. I also used to frequent Cafe Mom because you can write in the forums and get answers from moms. Who better to ask than moms?
