Welcome to today's edition of Connections Abound. The point of Lost and Found is to level the support playing field. When LFCA works correctly, the newest blogger with the smallest readership can receive the same level of support as the oldest blogger with the largest readership. Anyone can submit news to LFCA by clicking here.Lost and Found is open to anyone in the infertility, pregnancy loss, adoption, pregnancy-and-parenting after infertility, assisted conception, living child-free after infertility or loss community (as well as anyone I inadvertently missed on that list). Please support the list as well as anyone posting announcements below.

Lin is now the Community Leader of my August Expecting Club on I-Village. Last she posted (on 8/5) she was going to have a scheduled though emergency c-section on 8/6 because of pre-e. She hasn't posted on the board since 8/5 so I'm assuming that she had her little boy on 8/6.
Thanks for all those food sites. Now I'm hungry.
