  Birth Buddies...Buddies list is up!! *ANOTHER UPDATE* Reply Contact **if you didn't get a birth buddy and want one, please let me know and I will add you to a group! What's a birth buddies job? - A birth buddy will have your email or text or both and will inform us on the forum if you are in labor or that you have had your baby (or, hopefully not, any emergencies)! Basically, your birth buddies job is to come on this forum and let everyone know what's going on with you.   - Optional: birth buddies can also post any photos that we're texted to them or emailed to them from their buddies on this forum. - Optional: send an e-card to your BB, or even a congrats card in the mail if you have they're address. Not necessary though! Buddies are listed below! You are paired with the ladies that match your number next to your name. I tried to match the ladies based on location and time zones, and due dates. Some due dates are a little closer to each other. And, a couple of groups have 3 ladies in them. Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions! **Once you see who your BB (Birth Buddy) is please pm that person and exchange numbers &/or personal emails so you will know how to stay in contact with each other. Make sure to decide if you and your buddy prefer texting or emailing best (or if you like both).   1.  Chelsey . ChelseyBels: Due January 10th . Girl . Oregon (pst.) 1. Briana .

  Re: Birth Buddies...Did we do this? Reply Contact  I searched for "belly buddies", "belly buddy", "birth buddy", and "birth buddies" and didn't find anything yet. I wondered if maybe it was called something else. We talked about it in the first trimester when we talked about the baby shower. But, I'm pretty sure no one started it.  Well, anyone that would like a birth buddy that doesn't have one can sign up here. -chelsey
