Smart Bitches, Trashy Books

Sending you wonderfully healthy, happy thoughts for you and baby!!!  Can’t wait to hear about our newest SmartBaby.  Remember to rest as much as you can and let other people spoil you - life with a newborn can be exhausting and naps are essential!!

Pushy pushy pushy zen thoughts!

My word: Boy92!

Yay pushy happy baby thoughts!

Good luck, Sarah!  I am sending happy pushy, pain-free thoughts.  I am also sending epidural thoughts (I swear I would have divorced the hubby and married the anesthesiologist on the spot it I could have,)episiotomy-free thoughts, and most importantly healthy baby and mommy thoughts.  I can’t wait to hear about the new arrival!

Having been induced three out of three times, the only word is epidural.  Epidural, epidural.  Best of luck.  Send pictures when you can!

In the words of our greatest sage, Bill Cosby: “Push ‘em out, shove ‘em out, waaaay out!”

Much love to Momma and the Bitchlet.

Congratulations and best of luck!

Sending many good thoughts your way!

Epidurals are our friend, Sarah.

Bon chance with Freebird Part Deux!

My pushy thoughts are with you today. And we’ll hope that my word to submit, which “short,” is applicable.

Congratulations and may it be speedy and painless. And may you get enough sleep afterwards.

Pushy, happy, painless thoughts are being sent.

I wonder if I take the quiz if it can be counted as working? Technically I work in American History so I could always say “it’s educational!” if asked why I’m looking at naughty pictures. I am broadening my horizons and bettering myself.

Push!!!

Congrats!

Sending positive happy pushy thoughts with epidurals thrown in! Good luck, Sarah!

/hands out bitchy cigars

To a painless, happy, and very, very quick induction…

Perineal massage! Go! Go! Go!

Good luck, darling Sarah!!!!

Best of luck Sarah!  I look forward to hearing how freakishly healthy mama and baby SB are doing tomorrow!

And since you so graciously invited, and as I’m telling the world today, I just signed a contract with Ellora’s Cave for my first novel.  It’s not quite on the same level as a new baby, but it’s the closest I’ve come to spawning :)

Hi Sarah. Hoping you have the safest, fastest, least-painful delivery on record!

I hope the baby cooperates today—you must be an excellent hostess, Sarah. *g*

awwww a new baby today!! good luck!

amen on the epidurals, they are a girls best friend.

May the birth be so easy, you don’t realize it’s done til the child is three! :-)

Greetings and all Hail the Wee Bitch!

Best of luck! Hope the baby is as beautiful as you!

Dude, I KNEW having a master’s in history would pay off one day! Dang! Although the patrotic music while he swung his willy was a little over the top.

Good luck, Sarah!

Good luck Sarah—and I agree… Epidurals are your friend.

PS: Thanks for the quiz. Made it all the way through and, ahem…nice.

Good luck!  Hope things go well.

Happy Baby!  All the best to all of you.

Congrats & wishes for healthy mom & baby. 

Enjoy (seriously) because you blink, and suddenly they are grown up & you have to lengthen the apron strings…it totally sucks.

Random rant…am I the only reader majorly fed up with the sheer number of BDSM books being published?  Is the readership really that large for readers who enjoy this kink?  It’s one of the few plots I REALLY can’t enjoy.  And according to “those in the know” it’s rarely accurately written.

congrats KellyMaher on your book!!

The quiz cracked me up, all the historical fiction I’ve read paid off big time LOL

Happy Baby Day!!!!

Good luck!!!!

push push push push! looking forward to hearing about the new baby.

Q.  How can you bone up on American history when that guy is as flaccid as a wet noodle?

Studying in 11th grade (and the help of Google) finally paid off!

My word is “gave89”  as in Sarah “gave a biiig push” and along came baby!

Sending good, pushy vibes your way!

Congratulations! All hail the mighty epidural! I’m thinking very many happy, drugged-out, cute baby thoughts in your direction!

I, myself, was an ornery baby - always doing things the last minute. A week late, I decided to arrive the evening before they were going to induce me, and I’ve been procrastinating ever since!

My word: Together91! Whoo!

Good luck! Hope it’s fast & easy (where have I heard that before).

Woo hoo! here’s hoping your delivery is speedy (but not so speedy the drugs don’t have time to kick in) and uneventful (except for the part when the baby comes out!)  I wish you lots of sleep and sanity in the months to come.

Happy pushy thoughts! Good luck to you and baby and the whole family!

In other news, if I had a teacher who looked like that, I might have paid a lot more attention in history class.  As it is, my history-lovin’ husband has obviously rubbed off on me, as I got the boy teacher naked on the first try. Nummy. I have to say, I think I prefer the rear view, as the naked dangly bits are only truly arousing in the proper time and place.

Good luck!!!! And congratulations!!

Congratulations Sarah!

Loved the quiz!  Took me several tries to get “through” (ha ha), and I thought I was good at history.  If my teachers had looked like that, I KNOW I’d have paid more attention in school!  Excellent reward for completion…

Push it!

My boyfriend/pseudo-fiance was over 9 lbs and his dad was over 10.  I’m a tad loath to reproduce with him, for obvious reasons.  Here’s hoping Freebird Part Deux isn’t nearly so . . . extensive.

My spamblocker word: easy92.  I’m hoping that’s a prediction for you!

I was the result of an induced birth and my mother tells me the labor was blessedly short…about 2 hours.  Here’s hoping that all goes smoothly!

my word is “force67”  I think the spam word thing is cheering for you too.

I can’t believe that I failed the quiz on the third question. Of course, I was doing it at work so I was a bit distracted what with trying to make sure no one was coming (heh).

Good luck Sarah!

Verication: party92!

Pushy pushy thoughts for you, Sarah, and wishing Baba O’Reilly a smooth journey into the world, for both of your sakes!

Can’t wait to hear how wonderful you are BOTH doing tomorrow!!

Good luck and best wishes! I was induced with my daughter, it will all go smoothly. The second you hold your child for the first time is the best thing in the world!

Pushy, pushy thoughts headed your way, Sarah.  Along with wishes for a speedy delivery for you and baby.

Best of luck!

Bright Blessings on the birth of your child!
May it be an easy birth- and a lifetime of joy! :-)

Wishing you all the best—and now you will have a new year’s baby!

Here is your baby haiku.

Introspection is
Not easy when in labor
What were you thinking?

Sending you good thoughts your way.  Congrats on the new baby!

Good luck Sarah and I hope everything comes out okay (!)

Looking forward to seeing pics of the little Smartbichlet.

Puuuuuuuuuush, Sarah, puuuuuuuush!

Good luck, congrats, oh happy day, and a weekend of new baby bliss to you and your husband!

Ohhhh! Baby Day!!!

Go, Sarah, go!

Happy, healthy, pushy thoughts to Mama and Baby.

Good luck Sarah! Gone the induction route too - only 8 hours (as compared to 27 without). Hope you and your baby wonder are healthy and happy!

Happy Birthin’ Sarah!  Wishing you and the baby the best!

Also: Thanks for the link. I am soooo glad I majored in history ;o)

Painless, pushy thoughts, Sarah.  Hope everything goes smoothly for you and Baba O’Reilly.

Sarah,

Fran Leibowitz once said that you know your baby is going to be a writer if it’s two weeks late.

Kate

Keep pushing, Sarah!  Happy pushy vibes on the way!

Word: increase52!

Huzzah! Being a smarty pants pays off! Nekkid time on my first try…though the dancing was silly, he had a cute tushy.

Good luck, best wishes for a healthy delivery for baby & bitch alike.

I just found out I’ll be doin’ the same thing in May - looks like baby #2 is on its way!

That’s IT?

I can’t believe I taxed my brain for THAT.

He did have a nice butt.

Good luck on the baby!!!  Drugs are good.

Good Luck!

2 for 2 with the induction routine. Baby 1 REFUSED to be born even with induction and had to be suctioned out. Baby 2 I looked up and heard crying was all, “That’s it this time??”

Be well!

Hope this already finds you with your new baby - and that your labor was fast. 

Here’s to a happy, heatlhy and terribly smart baby :-)

Congrats!
Diane

Best to you and Freebird, Sarah - and don’t forget to breathe…

Best of luck for a speedy delivery of Baba O’Reilly. A wish for a happy and healthy baby and momma (and don’t forget poor daddy). :)

Here’s to a happy, healthy baby and much more joy than pain… now and in the next 18 years!

Best wishes and fingers crossed!

All the best to you and your family Sarah! Your new addition shares my birthday so I can guarantee it’ll be a great kid! ;-)

Have a good baby birth day.  Here’s to everything going peachy keen.

And why didn’t any of my teachers look like that.  Of course I have seen the whole thing yet.  I failed at question 4

Oh, this is so exciting!  I’m thinking good thoughts your way.  Remember to breath and to relax as much as you can.  Let us know as soon as you can!  We’re all waiting with baited breath.  :)

Good luck, and good drugs your way.

I’m such a loser.  It took me around 20 tries to see that guy fully naked.  I guess that makes me a persistant loser. 

At least I know how long the Great Depression lasted now.

Good luck and congratulations!

(That link is awesome)

Just adding to the positive thoughts, congratulations, etc. for all involved. Although you learned the secret with Freebird:
After you’ve carried a baby around for nine months, having them isn’t all that bad. ;)

Best to you for a speedy delivery, a quick recovery, and lots of cool presents.

Tell the little one happy birthday.

Best to you Sarah and baby - Pushy thoughts!! Push! Push! PUSH!!!

WOO WOO!  I got 100%!  How come none of my history teachers had an ass like that?

Dammit, I choked on the last question!  I missed the good stuff!
