Idea! UC book lending.

[SeekingMyZen]

Has anyone been doing any book lending through here? I have a pretty good small collection of UC books I have from my UC. I'm not prego (knock on wood) and these great books are sitting on my shelves while I see that there's momma's out there who are tight on funds and could really use these books!

So, I'm going to go through my books, pull out all the birthing ones and list them in here. Any prego momma's who plan to UC and can't really afford to buy a bunch of books are welcome to borrow them. I'll ship them right to you.

lol. alright.. i've got quite a few.. the first titles will be the most UC relevant, while the later ones will be lifestyle related..

ones out are marked, if you want to put a hold on something let me know, holds will be marked as well. you pay shipping through paypal.

I'd love to borrow some of these-I'd happily pay for shipping to me as well! It's a very generous offer.

this is so nice of you! i wish i wasnt so close to birthing this baby ... there is no time to read a book anymore

I'd be willing to lend some of mine out too. I'll check back in with what I have available when I get home from vacation. I've got some other supplies that I can probably pass along too, urinalysis strips etc.

I realize I'm a little late, but are you guys still offering to lend books? I am an extremely fast reader,and know how to take care of a book!(My dad is crazy about books, and was very strict in teaching us to care for them). Anyway, I am planning an UHB in May of next year, so I am trying to read like crazy...only as you all have mentioned, funds are tight.
