I'm 21, and 30 weeks. I've been in contact with an agency, had prenatal care, and overall am feeling alright with my decision (though, i am entering treatment for depression, have been very lonely).
I finally started a blog about it. I've had a personal blog for nearly five years, but, there are so many people that read it that aren't friends of mine. along with people that are friends. i just didn't want to discuss my pregnancy there, when i've so often had rude feedback from those that dislike me, and use my blog as a place to vent that. people can be very cruel, and i keep a lot of personal things out of that blog for that reason.
I'm really just trying to find people that would actually be interested in reading my pregnancy blog, so that when i post everyday, i know at least someone is out there reading and commenting. the writing itself is what really helps me, but it's always nice to have someone comment back.

I'll read. :) Though my heart stopped as I read your first entry and you said your agency's name.
I love blogs. Blogs, journals, writing in general. I'm a big nerd. :)

Dot,
Hello and welcome to the forums. I'm one of the moderators here, as well as an adoptee and adopted my daughter as well.
I hope that you find the support and community that you are looking for here. Just to let you know, it is expressly against the forum rules for any prospective adoptive parent to ever solicit an expectant parent. This includes if you are contacted via private message (PM), email or post. As the moderating team does not have access to members' PMs, please do not hesitate to contact myself or one of the other moderators (Kiwi, Crick, BrandyHagz) should you ever be solicited in such a manner, so that we can deal with it immediately. It is our goal to keep these forums a safe and welcoming place for all members of the adoption community.
Good luck to you with the remainder of your pregnancy.
Sincerely,
MrsSmith, Forums Moderator

Dot, I think your blog is wonderful, yet painful, and necessary. I believe everyone should have the right to speak his/her mind whether it be in a weblog, to a close friend or family member or in a novel.
I wish you nothing but the best.
