Giveaway: What to Expect Book Series

This giveaway is now closed.

Do you remember when you found out you were pregnant?  What an amazing time.  Were you like me and immediately ran out to the store to buy every pregnancy magazine and book you could get your hands on?  If you did, I’m betting one of the books in today’s giveaway was in your shopping basket.

The What to Expect When You Are Expecting book is the pregnancy bible for many woman as they navigate the nine month process of baby growin’.  From the book, to the What to Expect website, to the associated iphone app, these valuable resources helped address a lot of my pregnancy questions.  As a mom of multiples, I especially loved the whole section dedicated to the sometimes unique experience of being pregnant with twins.  You would even think that after getting pregnant again, I wouldn’t really need a reference guide, but I still used these resources to track my sweet baby’s growth and get answers to my new pregnancy ailments.

But did you know there is a whole series of What to Expect books?  Not only can you get guidance on your pregnancy, but they also have books dedicated to the first and second years of your little one’s life.

What to Expect the First Year:  That first year can be a tricky one for sure.  I always felt like as soon as I got comfortable with the baby’s schedule, everything would up and change.  From eating to sleeping to playing, I leaned on this resource to try to create some sense of order in my new chaotic life!

What to Expect the Second Year:  Then my twins turned one and we entered the second year of their life.  I didn’t even realize that the What to Expect series offered a book to address that year’s numerous questions as well.  From walking to talking to temper tantrums to sleeping, I have numerous toddler related questions.  Thank goodness there are moms, dads and experts who have experienced all of these challenges and provided guidance!

 

So, are you expecting or already have a little one in tow?  Do you have all the books in this series or would you like to get them for FREE?

Thanks to our new friends at What to Expect, we will be giving away all three books!

The details on how to enter are below.  The contest will run for one week.  Good luck!

    What to Expect
    Our best friends just told us that they are pregnant with their first child and I would love for them to have these books as they were so helpful when I was pregnant, and beyond. I lent my set to another friend and never got them back! Thanks so much for the great giveaway.

    I’d love the second year one, because there are so many changes taking place that this stage of development. I’d get the first 2 to my sister in law.

    When you’re pregnant you have really no clue What to Expect, and these books would be most helpful during pregnancy and through the second year for our daughter!
