Yay team! Postpartum Progress is one of the finalists for the 2009 Medical Weblog Awards in the "Best Patients Blog" category. Polls are now open (they close Feb. 14th) and winners will be announced in late February.

Here are the great e-patients weare up against:

BEST PATIENTS BLOG

∞ itis: about rheumatoid arthritis

Postpartum Progress: that's us ladies and gents!

The Queen of Optimism: about autoimmune disease

RheumaBlog: also on rheumatoid arthritis

Six Until Me: about diabetes

technical right below elbow amputee issues: about being an amputee

Wheelchair Kamikaze: about multiple sclerosis

Go vote here now friends, if you think Postpartum Progress is deserving of course! Asfar as I understand it, the winner will be whichever blog receives the most votes. We are currently in third or fourth place I believe, so we really need your votes.

Oh, and as much as I'd kind of be into cheating in this instance –I kid, I kid–you can only vote once. They'll know if you vote more than once and they don't take kindly to that sort of thing.

Thanks for your support!

P.S. If you voted, let us know in the comments. We're curious how the voting is going!
