One mother I spoke with told me "My pregnancy journal is the most wonderful gift I have to give to my baby in the years to come as it documents the beginning of their life".  

Many people have a baby journal that they fill in for each baby but have you thought to journal pregnancy as well? A pregnancy is a wondrous thing.  There are so many changes going on both physically and emotionally it would be wonderful to record these. I started my pregnancy journal but never finished and I really regret that now.  I would love to have the record of those amazing 9 months to look back on now and share with my son.  I very much admire those who are able to document and keep records of special moments in their lives. 

Whether you are looking for the ultimate gift to give to a pregnant friend or a journal for yourself I hope you find the following recommended journals helpful.

You can purchase any of these baby journal books in our baby books store.
