Hip, trendy pregnancy blogs?

June 24, 2008 7:20 PM

Are there any hip, trendy pregnancy/baby blogs out there?

I refuse to believe as soon as you become pregnant your fuddy-duddy status skyrockets. I'm less interested in personal pregnancy journals, but hope to find blogs that will point me to modern maternity clothes, indie baby shower invitations, funny or interesting articles, etc.

I'm looking for something like Design Sponge only for nurseries.
Something like Offbeat Bride but about pregnancy or maternity wear.
Can I get a Mighty Junior but for newborns?

Ohdeedoh is more kid-related than maternity-related, but is updated very frequently and has links to a million other sites, some more pregnancy-related.

My friend has a subscription to Hip Mama and loves it. There's also MotherTalkers. Two places to start.

The blogs at Babble.com include quite a bit of posting about pregnancy and newborn issues (full disclosure: I blogged and wrote reviews for Babble for a while, but haven't in a really long time).

Sweet Juniper. More baby/toddler related now, but it's terrifically well written and features stunning photos from time to time.
