Re: *August Beach Babies Wed check-in*

  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now?

    I have What to Expect  and an Irish one called The Irish Pregnancy Book

    imageimage

    L-R: Liam (7), Eimhin (6) and Fionn (4)!  (Irish names)
    Too busy to update the pics for now ... :)

  • Good morning! I haven't been reading too much yet. I do have What to Expect the First Year & I've read through that one a little bit, other than that, still reading Your Pregnancy Week by Week. I suppose I should get on the ball though. I do want to check out that Happiest Baby on the Block (I think that's what it's called) & some others too. I've kind of just been relaxing & enjoying my last few weeks of freedom before LO arrives.

  • hey everyone, I haven't been reading too much either with work and being tired a lot there isn't too much time but I do read and listen to my hypnobabies every night and I have what to expect the first year and healthy sleeping habits, healthy child.
  • I've read some of What to expect in the first year; still finishing up what to expect when you're expecting, as well.  I'm more of a "do something once you have to" type, and then wish I had done that something sooner.
  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now?

    I have lots to read but I can only read one thing at a time, lol!  I'm currently reading Pushed, which isn't a baby book, but I have read part of Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way (need to finish that one) and I also plan on reading a Hypnobabies book.  We also have a book called While Waiting but I just use that as a reference if I happen to have some random question about pregnancy in general.

    I also have The Nursing Mother's Companion & The No-Cry Sleep Solution on my to-read list. :)

    Day Three
  • Good morning,

    All is well here, aside from the sore ribs!

    QOTD: I have "Great Expectations". I wouldn't say I am really reading it now, but I reference it when I have a question. I read it during my first pregnancy. I bought DH "Pregnancy Sucks for Men", but I don't think he really reads it. :)

    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • Good Morning! We are meeting with a Pedi today!

    QOTD:  I read Hypnobirthing, Belly Laughs, and the Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy.  I have yet to finish Chicken Soup for the Expectant Mother's Soul.

  • Monday QOTD: Will you be teaching baby any other languages?  Nope

    Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? What to expect when you're expecting (read it about 10 times already). I have gotten a DVD to start watching regarding the birth experience, but no books.

    **My thoughts and prayers are with your Babes12**

    Pregnancy Ticker
  • I am currently not reading anything baby related other than my week by week updates in "The Pregnancy Journal." I have set my reading aside to take care of my "nesting list."
  • I'm not really reading anything.  Every once in a while I take out "What to Expect When Expecting".
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I have "What to Expect..." and "Baby 411"

     Thoughts and prayers to Babes12!

  • I've been working on my Hypnobabies whenever I can so that hasn't left me too much time for reading!  I do have Dr. Sear's The Baby Book, which is a great reference, and would like to read The Happiest Baby on the Block, which is sitting on my bookshelf!  My last day of school is tomorrow and then I'll have plenty of time to catch up on my reading!
    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • None!  This is my third pregnancy/baby and I got rid of all of them after #2.  I figure if I don't know it now, I'm beyond the help that a book can provide. 

     I've been having lots and lots of contractions, I'll be anxious to see if they are doing anything at my OB appointment tomorrow. 

    Hope everyone is doing well.

  • I've been reading Baby 411.  I have What to Expect ..., but really only skim through the chapters every once in a while.  I would like to get The Happiest Baby On The Block, but I will probably just flip through it at the bookstore to see if it's worth me buying.

    Due date Aug 3, 2019
  • My SIL gave me the Baby Book (Dr. Sears) but an older version from when she had her first son (now 6). Otherwise I don't have any baby books. I want to get the Week by Week one and The Happiest Baby on the Block.

  • QOTD:  I've been reading "Your Baby's First Year" by the editors of babytalk magazine.  I really like it.  It covers everything I wanted to know about and explains things in a very straight-forward, easy to read and humorous way.  I highly recommend it!

  • Morning ladies! Hope everyone is doing well! I'm not reading any baby books this go around, I did with DD (What to expect) and it scared me with half of the questions, I decided at that point I would deal with each problem that popped up on its' own but not to get myself worked up.

    No progress over here (thank goodness! Stay in there baby!) I have a drs. appt next friday and then start my 2 week appointments! Yay! Light at the end of the tunnel (sorta)

  • Monday QOTD: Will you be teaching baby any other languages? No

    Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? DH and I both read "Your Pregnancy Week by Week". I plan to buy "On Becoming Baby Wise" and "Your Baby's first year: Week by Week".

  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? 

    What to Expect When You're Expecting and Pregnancy Sucks for Men Too. The second one I bought for DH. :)

    Feeling like shiiiit today with a sinus infection. Going home from work early. yuck.

  • Good Morning everyone. I am really starting to get uncomfortable, I ache on my right side all the time and I am starting to show signs of swelling in my calves, ankles and feet. Ugh. Only 6 more weeks.

    QOTD: I am just finishing reading Happiest Baby on the Block, I love the concept and I just hope that I will be able to do it correctly when baby comes.

  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now?

    I flip through What to Expect and The BabyCenter Guide to Pregnancy for weekly updates.  I started reading a breastfeeding book called "So That's What They're For" a while back.  I would also like to read The Happiest Baby on the Block and The Vaccine Book.

  • I'm still mostly on the pregnancy/birth books, not got any baby books yet. Glad this was the QOTD though - should give me some idea of which are the good ones!
  • Morning!

    I have been re-reading some old favorites

    Right now I am reading "Haunted" by Chuck Palahnuik.

    No baby books though

  • Good Afternoon Ladies, I am happy to report that I got word today that I passed my 3 hr test!! WooHoo!!

    As far as books, I already read the Girlfriends guide to pregnancy and pretty much through What to expect when your expecting.  I kind of read it month by month when i get to that particular month!

  • Hi ladies. Can I be added to the list?  My EDD is August 6, 2009, and we are team pink! Thanks.

     QOTD: Not reading any baby books right now.  I'm struggling to get through all the reading for my law school summer classes. But I did read Yummy Mummy earlier in the pregnancy, and really enjoyed it.

  • I'm reading Ina May Gaskin's Guide to Childbirth. Cool book so far :-)

     Nothing new to report here, I have an appt on Friday but so far everything has been on track!

  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? 

    Read??!!

    Who has time to read with a toddler? LMAO. Not kidding. 

  • Good afternoon!!! I've slowed down on my book reading, but I have Pregnancy Week by Week, and that has been the most helpful and explainatory for me personally!
  • Monday QOTD: Will you be teaching baby any other languages? 

    French will be very important as my parents and extended family all speak French.  Spanish will also be taught.

     

     

    Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? 

    What To Expect When You're Expecting

  • I have not read any pregnancy books, but I do plan on reading books about the first year.
    Lilypie Second Birthday tickers
  • Hi!!  Haven't read any baby books recently.  I did just pick up Twilight to see what all the hype is about.
  • Wednesday QOTD: What baby books are you reading right now? 

    Happiest Baby on the Block, What to expect (whatever book that about when baby arrives), Your pregnancy week by week...as you can see I am jumping between the books, lol.
