DrKoop.com
What medication will affect your unborn or nursing baby? You should always ask your doctor, but for a quick check, visit DrKoop.com. The site’s "Drug Search" gives you the breakdown on more than 24,000 medications, and, if you take multiple drugs, you can also learn about adverse reactions they may have when taken together. The handy tools at this site ease your mind about taking care of yourself without harming your little one.
Gap.com
From the home page of this site you can access both Baby Gap and Gap Maternity. Make a wish list while you shop for new duds for both you and baby.

BabyStyle.com
For the busy expectant mom, shopping for all your new baby needs can take time and energy you don’t have. Instead, point your browser to BabyStyle.com to shop for unique maternity and baby clothes, nursery furnishings, baby gear, toys, and gifts. Here, you’ll find everything from bassinets to bibs. BabyStyle has developed design solutions that celebrate pregnancy and beyond with quality, value, and style.
SaveBabies.org
Every expectant mom should learn about expanded newborn screening for her baby. This incredible, new technology can help save thousands of babies every year from serious illness, mental retardation, or even death. The simple screening requires only a few drops of blood from the routine heel stick that your baby will already receive. Screening costs less than $50, but you’ll need to order the screening packet well before your baby is born. Learn more about screening and how to purchase it for your baby at the Save Babies Through Screening Web site.
BabyNameCenter.com
Still not sure what to call your new baby? Search through thousands of choices at BabyNameCenter to find the perfect name. You can even search by definition so if you want to bestow "beauty" on your daughter, you can choose Callista, Belinda, or Alana (or about fifty other names).
