Childbirth
This category is for some pregnancy and all childbirth websites that are health oriented. We are looking for websites that have a decent amount of specific content that relate to the health of the mother or baby before, during, and shortly after (several weeks) childbirth. Any non-health related websites (baby products, baby names, baby pictures, etc) probably would fit better in the Home/Family/Pregnancy category which was designed as a primarily non-health related pregnancy category.
Websites that are accepted at this level must contain at least some useful information about childbirth and not exist specifically to sell products without having helpful and specific health related childbirth information as well. There are also several subcategories which pertain to specific facets of childbirth which may be a better fit for your website.
