Whether it's a product or a mothering tip, do you feel like you've learned a lot from HB? I know I do. I learn something new every day on this site and I feel like a better mom for knowing.
Do you find HB useful? On a scale of one to ten, ten being the highest, how would you rank HB's usefulness?
And what new fact have you learned today?

I just can't give a 10. It's a sickness. I totes love that GPS/Bluetooth-y gadget I just read about on another thread.

I give it a 8 bc some things I'm better off not knowing like new things I want to buy!

I love it on here, but had to rank it an 8 because I feel like it's so good that I'm on here way too much. Am I the only one who gets what I'm saying?

@MaisyMay: Yessssssss. I am consciously preventing myself from posting as much.

@regberadaisy: hahaha this.
I said 9 because I've made a few great friends and that's worth it to me!
In terms of products I've learned a lot too. But just like regberadaisy I probably shouldn't have learned about them because now I want them!

@katsupgirl: Lol, I can never give anything a perfect score either.
I gave it an 8, I've gotten so much help and information but sometimes it makes me feel like I need products that are too expensive our to do something that really doesn't work for or family.

@MaisyMay: yep. I've had to do way too many detoxes because I'm on here so much. I check HB as much if not more than I check fb or my email.

I'm the ten!! I knew nothing about parenting before HB and now I feel like I know at least enough to give it a go! Plus there's all the other stuff I've learned, like views about creationism and carrying guns in the States! I love having my eyes opened! HB is awesome!

There is so much that I don't know about what happens when baby actually gets here and I'm so glad that I have a place to come to when I have a question or need to know about someone else's experiences.

HB has been invaluable to me. All the advice, opinion, support, suggestions, etc the Bees give me are a life saver. It saves my sanity from Googling and know the response I get is first hand from real life experiences. Heck, I think I built 90% of my registry based upon recommendations from the Bees. LOL!

@Bao: seriously!
I gave it a 10. Whenever I have a fear, worry, question, or reason to celebrate, I tell all the bees! It's really helped normalize a lot of things for me and I get a lot of support from the community. I wish I didn't just lurk on HB when I was pregnant and just joined the community afterwards.

I've learned sooo much! I wish this site was around when I became a FTM... I think it would've helped me avoid a lot of heartache and stress.

Another 10 here. So much knowledge (I use the guides and favorite books quite often), so many different opinions and perspectives, and well organized, visually appealing site. Yeah, I love it here.

10. I have to. I go to HB more than I go to people I know IRL. I don't know what I'd do without my 'bee moms!

I gave it a 10. The amazing community aside, I think the blog is the best resource on pregnancy / babies / parenting on the Internet!
GOLD / wonderful pea / 17697 posts
I give it a 10 for community, advice, resources, easing my paranoia...I could go on. I feel much more confident in my parenting because of this community.
I'm definitely addicted.
