Ahhh – the irony of it all

I have debated whether or not to post about this but I cannot keep it to myself any longer.

It would seem dear Amy Philo has a blog here at wordpress. Those of you who are fellow bloggers (and readers) know that at the bottom of a post WordPress now includes Possibly Related Posts. Enter irony.

Amy’s prime mission is to derail the passage of The MOTHER’S Act, legislation that if enacted, would mandate screening, education, and further research for Postpartum Depression. One of her posts regarding an article against the MOTHER’S ACT blockers has a link at the bottom. To my blog. To a Post which includes Susan Dowd Stone’s Statements regarding the MOTHER’S ACT.

Yeah.

I love the internet too.

Celebrating a new collaboration!

I met with the director of a local Pregnancy Center this past friday and I have to brag a bit.

The meeting went very well. We’ve been hit and miss for the past year (mostly due to me and my pregnancy) so I was THRILLED to finally have a firm meeting. I did up a presentation and prepared my facts (helped that MedEdPPD had just done a First Thursday on Teen Pregnancy).

Turns out they are about to revamp the website so I’ll be getting some web-friendly text and resources to them for a PPD page! I’ll also be developing faith-based brochures for them to hand out and aiding in the development of PPD educational modules to go along with their new parenting class series! YAY!

YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!

(Can you see me? I’m doing the happy dance!)
