CLOSED! GIVEAWAY: Babycenter.com (Great for baby showers or for pregnant moms)
8:35 AM
You would think after 5 pregnancies/babies, I would be a baby/pregnancy expert, but really I am still learning with each pregnancy. So, I was super excited to get the chance to learn about and check out babycenter.com.
Before I get into the Giveaway and review can I give you some information given to me straight from babycenter.com?
In an effort to be there for mom during her pregnancy and parenting journey, wherever and whenever she needs it most, BabyCenter continually strives to offer valuable parenting tools. Among the latest and greatest include:
BabyCenter My Pregnancy Today App
This new, free application for the iPhone and iTouch, guides expectant moms through their pregnancy journey, offering award-winning, medically reviewed health content; advice from obstetricians, midwives, nutritionists, and other experts; daily activities and reminders; and conversation and connection with other moms-to-be in BabyCenter’s community.
BabyCenter “Preparing for Labor and Birth” Online Class
The BabyCenter Class is a convenient, at-home option for moms who can’t attend hospital childbirth classes due to hectic work schedules or being put on bed rest. And the price is right, too! For only $39.99, the all-new 2-hour instructional course lets you hear from doctors, ask your questions, and build confidence for your big day. Preparing for Labor and Birth includes: An explanation of the signs and stages of labor; What to expect during labor; Labor and birth stories from new moms; An overview of your pain-management options; A tour of a delivery room; Suggestions for creating your birth plan; A checklist to help you prepare for the big day and more.
BabyCenter Parenting Books (BabyCenter® Pregnancy and BabyCenter® Baby)
These two new practical and reassuring books provide pregnant women and new mothers with all of the information and support they need during this exciting new time in their lives, with a blend of expert advice and true “mom wisdom.” Both are great, highly visual, reference books to keep on the nightstand for that nagging question or concern that inevitably pops up in the middle of the night.
Mom Answers
This new interactive tool gives BabyCenter moms an emotionally supportive environment where they can ask questions and get answers straight from other moms who’ve had similar life experiences. It’s like having access to 8 million best girlfriends 24/7.
Milestones
The new Milestones tool provides BabyCenter moms the ability to quickly and easily record important pregnancy and childhood milestones and share them with friends and family via e-mail, Facebook, and the BabyCenter Community. It’s a fun way to create an online “baby book.”
Babycenter.com through MyBlogSpark provided me with a prize package that includes two new BabyCenter parenting books (BabyCenter® Pregnancy and BabyCenter® Baby), a package of Seventh Generation diapers, a gift card from BabyCenter partner, Shutterfly and a BabyCenter bib. They also gave me access to their Online classes.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much wonderful information is available! Even as a 5th time mom I learned a lot from their tools. I thought the online classes had great useful information, and I loved being able to get that from home without finding a babysitter and going to the hospital for a class. LOVED the convenience.
The books they send were organized well and easy to read and follow and to find what you want to read about. Lots of great information! I have really enjoyed these items and thanks to Babycenter.com through MyBlogSpark, I am able to offer one of my readers the chance to win a Prize package that includes two new BabyCenter parenting books (BabyCenter® Pregnancy and BabyCenter® Baby), a package of Seventh Generation diapers, a gift card from BabyCenter partner, Shutterfly and a BabyCenter bib!!!

My story is, just so happy I did not break my first child, that's all I could think of-DON"T BREAK HER. After a few weeks I stopped thinking about it so much, but I sure watched, when others had her.

Actually, I am not nor have I ever been pregnant. However, my best friend is currently expecting her first. I have enjoyed sharing in her delights of buying tiny little clothes, reading books and magazines, and stocking up on her diaper collection. This is something I know she would truly love!

Ha! My favorite pregnancy/parenting story was when we announced that we were expecting our 7th blessing! Some reactions were hilarious, some were irritating-but we knew we were blessed regardless!

it's an odd memory, but the day I had my u/s for my 1st child, my husband ended up having an u/s couple hours later & then had to have an emergency appendectomy. I always said I got the better outcome
