AUTHOR. The Pregnancy Script was written by Michelle Potter of http://usr-bin-mom.com.

COST/LICENSE. This script is linkware. To use this script in its original form, you must link back to http://usr-bin-mom.com.
The Pregnancy Script is free to use and redistribute under the GPL. You received a copy of the GPL in your .zip file. Please read it. While there is no cost for using The Pregnancy Script, if you want to send me money, gifts, stickers, or pictures of the baby, I wouldn't object!

ABOUT. The Pregnancy Script is meant to allow pregnant women to provide automatic weekly pregnancy updates right on their websites. The script announces a pregnancy, tells the name and gender (if specified) of the baby, counts the weeks of the pregnancy and the days until the due date, and provides weekly information on fetal development.

DISCLAIMER. This script is JUST FOR FUN! It's a toy. If you read something here, and your doctor or midwife tells you something different, believe them! They are trained professionals, and I am just a geeky homeschool mom with some time on my hands.

CREDITS. Some of the information used to write this script was gleaned from: http://scriptygoddess.com/ - http://php.net/ - http://pregnancy.about.com/ - http://womens-place.com/

requirements. you must be able to use php on your website to use this script.

how to use. download the .zip file and edit variables in pregnancy.php. upload it to your website, and use a php include on any php enabled page.

TROUBLESHOOTING. Almost everything this script does is based on the date of your last period. It is based on a 28 day cycle. Your cycle may be longer or shorter, so if the results seem wrong to you, fiddle with that date until you are satisfied. If you have any questions, please post them in the comments below.

other versions. there used to be a javascript version of the script written by someone else with my permission, but that doesn't seem to exist anymore. if you have another version or translation, please email me.
