Customer Reviews

Perfect organizer for pregnancy through age 5!

I received one of these planners for my first baby and loved it! I now purchase it for all my friends who are having babies, it has a space for everything. I like that it's a very organized way to cherish all those early memories. There is even a pocket in the back for extras.

Almost perfect

This book is fantastic except that it devotes too many preprescribed pages to things like pregnancy and health and not enough to what your baby may have been up to. For example, the first almost 50 pages are devoted specifically to pregnancy and planning for baby. Six of those pages are for the brands and colors of items that you may have picked for your baby's nursery. In contrast, each of the baby's years gets about 10 pages. I didn't even get the book until almost my due date, so you see my plight. That being said, the graphics are adorable and we are enjoying the book. It's ALMOST exactly what I was looking for.

Must have for all Moms

This is a definite MUST HAVE for all Moms. It has a spot for everything and is cute too.

Beautiful Keepsake that will take you through year 5!

I had my first child in October 2001, and bought this book early in the pregnancy. I was initially impressed by its appearance- it uses a lot of vintage child art throughout. But, more importantly, I have found this a easy to use and comprehensive book. It is hard cover and spiral bound, and closes with an elastic loop. This is handy so I can stick in photos, announcements, invitations, etc. without fear of losing them. There are many places in the book to attach photos of the appropriate event or time period. Also, this book is useful for not just the pregnancy memories but becomes a baby book, recording your child's events through age 5. There is a useful pocket in the back. There are checklists, quotes, and calendars galore. I am not a big "journaler"; this book helped by guiding me through my memories. I look back and already have recorded so much, but it doesn't seem like it has taken much time. This was a tremendous purchase for me, and I know my husband, son, and I will love to look back on it.

Classy and Complete

I recently found out that I am expecting my third, and probably last, child and I decided to find a journal in which to record my pregnancy so that I could really savor and appreciate this special time. This book is more than I expected!! The charming illustrations have a vintage feel that will still look classic when your baby is grown. The book is divided into sections: pregnancy, health and development, first year, second year,etc on up to the fifth year. The book has a chunky feel that makes you want to curl up with it and reminisce. It is a resource for all of the names and phone numbers you'll need to record as a parent but it also guides you into capturing all of those special "firsts" and memories (ie. favorite foods & recipes, favorite songs, quotes from your child's teachers)that you'll enjoy looking back on when your child is grown. I am really looking forward to filling up this book.
