Click here to read my review of A Simple Amish Christmas. So tell me ladies, do you have any plans for the upcoming weekend? Mr. Whimsy and I are taking a childbirth prep class. Can I admit I'm nervous?Don't have a Kindle but still interested? Consider downloading the Kindle reader (for free) for your for PC, BlackBerry, or iPhone. Own a nook? Check out Free Friday at Hott Books.
Thanks for the heads-up, Juju! :-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Juju!! Unfortunately it's still not free for Nook.
ReplyDeleteOf course you can admit that!! I'm still nervous & my littlest baby is 8. It's so worth it though!
Shannon: No prob ;)
ReplyDeleteRegina: Yah I saw that :(
It's the labor part that scares me.
Being nervous is a good thing..you realize the importance of what's happening...and you're preparing so you can be the best mom to Little Whimsy possible! <3

Melissa: Thanks :) That's sweet of you.
ReplyDeleteI so love Christmassy books at this almost Christmas time of year!!!
ReplyDeletePatty: Me too :) I'm like an addict really.
ReplyDeleteAw don't be nervous! Not that I ever took these classes, but I am sure with Mr. Whimsy at your side, all will be fine. I'm sure you two will find something special yet humorous about these classes. Laughter makes everything easier :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Jenny Girl: So very true! Laughter is the best medicine. I'm so nervous about labor. I harbor a not so secret wish that it happens really fast. ;)
ReplyDeleteFREE BOOKS FTW. Though I don't exactly read religious stories :P
ReplyDeleteHafsah: :) I feel ya
ReplyDeleteOoh, I remember wanting to read this when I read your review! Thanks for the tip, Juju!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I harbor a not so secret wish that when the time comes, the stork is going to bring mine! :)
I mean, every time I even think of having a baby, I always get stuck on the labor part a bit - it makes me more than a little nervous too. So, I can only imagine how nerve-racking it is to be SO close to the labor part. But HEY! You're expecting such a beautiful and miraculous gift this Christmas!
You're always so on top of this Juju...thank you! ^_^
ReplyDeleteWe took a class too and it REALLY helped. The Lamaze breathing helped me so much. And Mr. ISRBR was a great coach. Enjoy your class and pay close attention because it was so helpful!
ReplyDeleteJessicaBookLover: No prob ;) And OMG yes! I've always been that way too. I'm in total labor denial. ;) I just have to keep focusing on my Christmas gift.
ReplyDeleteGMR: You're welcome :)
Kelli: Oh good to know! Did you go natural?
Can you come back and use the linky to sign up.
ReplyDeleteIts my first time using one!!!
Thanks for the heads up. I could go for a good Christmas book right about now. Good luck with your weekend plans. Such an exciting time :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun in class! You'll be just fine I'm sure :)
ReplyDeleteWalltowall: I tried but it was asking me to put in a description?
ReplyDeleteChristina & Julie: Thanks dolls! :)
Snagged it. Thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeletePenelope: No prob :)
ReplyDeleteAw, it looks so cute! And good luck with the class--I've heard those are super helpful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, yeah i figured that out! LOL oh well this is my first time - I am a linky virgin!
ReplyDeleteI went in and changed it.
Meredith: :) Thanks
ReplyDeleteWalltowall: No prob :)
i love amish stories. this sounds like a good one.
ReplyDeleteChelley: You too? Right on ;) *high five*
ReplyDeletethis looks good :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up. PS...I started recording the Once Upon A Time series. And...I'm sure you and Mr. Whimsy will do just fine in your childbirth class. Hope you enjoy it and learn lots! YAY for Baby Whimsy!
ReplyDeleteNo, I did not go natural, I was induced and had an epidural. BUT, my epidural did NOT work on the "bottom pain". It helped the contractions, which I did not feel but I felt everything from the waist down. OUCH!!! I had no idea that could happen but after it did, and talking with other moms, it can happen. I knew you could get "hot spots" of pain but I didn't know it could not work for an entire area like that. So, the Lamaze breathing really helped with the pain. I don't want to scare you but I would have wanted to know BEFORE I took the risk of an epidural.
ReplyDeleteKaye: :)
ReplyDeleteJade: Right on! I hope you love it so far :) And thank you sweetie for your words of support. *hugs*
Kelli: Oo! I had no idea! Good to know. Wow. Thank you SO much for the warning! Do you still think you would have had the epidural?
Ooooh, new picture in the header, I like!
ReplyDeleteI was scared to have the twins too. But here's the thing, but the very end, you just want your body back and you'd walk over hot coals to make it happen. Nothing scares you as much as the cankles that used to be your lower legs.
As for the epidural, you can do what I did...slightly exaggerate the amount of pain you're in so the doctors give you the drugs early and often. I also made a point of telling *everyone* I wanted the epi...the doctors, the nurses, the orderly mopping the floors, the valet parking guy...whoever was listening.
Haha! This sounds hilarious! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJoy: Thanks :D
ReplyDeleteLOL I feel ya. I'm getting there. Oh and girllll I know what you mean about those cankles. I miss my skinny feet ;)
OOooooo good idea! Why didn't I think of that? You're brilliant! Thank you for sharing that nugget of wisdom.
Oh and twins? Wow.
Briz: Hey you! Hilarious no. But sweet yes :) Thanks for stopping by!
oh, i snatched it (thank you!) and passed on the info to a friend.
ReplyDeleteNomes: Awesome :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting us know. I'm going to see if it's still free!
ReplyDeleteBermuda: Oh no! I think it ended :( Sorry doll!
ReplyDeleteHow were your classes? Did the nerves go away?
ReplyDeleteHave a nice time with the prep class! :)
ReplyDeleteAlexis: It went great. And the nerves? Still there. Mostly about labor. So unpredictable and scary ;)
ReplyDeleteCherry: Thanks :)
