Nine Months & Counting: Bible Promises/Bright Ideas F/Pregnancy and After

This wonderful little book is part of my permanent library! I really enjoy the gentleness and am very thankful to Alice for being obedient to the calling of the Christian childbirth ministry. Thank you! Kelly J. Townsend Author Christ Centered Childbirth

This is a cute little book full of scriptures and quotes, to-do lists and helpful suggestions as well as questions to answer and space for journaling. I plan on using a lot of the scriptures and quote in my baby's scrapbook.

I purchased this book as a little gift for myself when trying to conceive our first child. It has remained a reassuring companion four years and two children later!The book is visually lovely, with delicate illlustrations and a softly finished, beautiful cover. The tidbits of advice range from the practical to the inspiring. It is full of well-selected quotes from the bible and other sources. It is the type of book that can be read a snippet at a time, and you will glean something useful or inspiring or encouraging each time you open it. It is the perfect gift for a newly pregnant woman, but I still find my copy useful months after birth. This book is a great reminder of the beauty of motherhood, and it makes you feel as if you have a gentle, motherly friend beside you to guide you through pregnancy and new motherhood.

I stumbled across this charming book while looking for some thoughtful and/or Biblical quotes for my daughter's baby album. What I found, along with lots of beautiful thoughts for her book, was a reassuring look at God's hand in the jouney of preganancy.I read and reread this book every night to calm my soul while pregnant and even afterwards to remind me that my children are gifts from God.I intend to give this book as a "congratulions on your pregnancy" gift to all my expecting friends and family. I think you'll enjoy it too.
