Baby Journal

[~*Leanne*~]

has anyone else got one of these??

I have got one and fill it out every week but i didnt start it until about 12weeks so there are loads of weeks missing which i feel a bit sad about - anyways i have decided that each picture i post on here of my bump, (every few weeks) i will put a pic of it in the journal at the right week - does it sound daft or a nice thing to remember???

Sounds like a lovely idea hun! I had good intentions of doing something like this but still haven't started

I think you can get them from places like WH Smith and Waterstones but i got mine off Amazon.co.uk - think it was only about £10.00 if i remember rightly!! theres a place to stick all the scan pics and things and thought it was a lovely idea! just wish i had started it earlier!

I thought about doing one of these but I'm just way too lazy.

I love the idea of sticking a picture of your growning tummy in though. I am taking pictures of my tummy but they're all just on my PC at the minute because I've got nowhere to put them.

I'm 18 weeks now so it's not worth starting one now!

Mines a scrap book, it was only like £3 from work. It's got a little poem at the front, then pics of possitive tests, and letters etc, that page is the holy shit im pregnant page lol.

Then it starts going in to tummy pics, i was going to do a pic every 2 and a half weeks but in reality i do more lol.

It's all in order and tells you how far on a im

When you get to 11 weeks theres a print off of my scan photo

Then more pics of bump

Then all my 20 week scan photos (again they're all print offs i didnt wanna use the originals)

Then a few more bump pics, along with my ticket for the brit awards etc, cos i want her to know she went.

Then my 4D scan pics and

Then more and more photo's of bump, and my tickets for Simple plan at the academy

I'll probably but something in about my birthday this week.

Then i've got 2/3 pages for when she's born to fill with pics of what my little bean became. And right at the back is absolutely everything to do with her dad, but not stuck in, i've got all the photo's of us, all the little notes he gave me, and a CD containing it all. i Figured that chances are i wont have anything to do with him, and will at some point delete all the pics etc from my computer, i wanted her to still have some way of knowing who he was.

When i've finished Uni properly i'll set about making every page beautiful and "colouring it in" etc

I do have one of these but I have been quite lazy in filling them in..but have promised myself I will start to jot down all the details now...so far when something happens and I dont have the journal beside me I end up jotting it down on a piece of paper. So I will have to go through the bits of paper and make a real meaning out of what is written on them

Oh they sell that one in mothecare too. I have that one but its my babies journal so most of it wont apply until after she's here. I think it's lovely and SO detailed, i'm assuming the pregnancy one will be the same, it'll be a great thing to keep

 

[Beth88]

yeeep thats the one!!

 

[Mildly]

I'm too late to start one (and to be honest too lazy ). I do have the pregnancy test which I'm going to keep and I have already bought my baby journal ready I also have the manual too

 

[dannii87]

I started one from the night I found out I was pregnant and just transferred it to the online one so I keep both updated (I just copy and paste).

The one I have on my computer though is a little more personal and has a factfile on Gray so that Evie will always know as much as possible about him.

I think it's a lovely idea posting your bump pics!! My Mum told me when I first found out t always take as many pics as possible as she only has one pic of when she was pregnant with me and she really regrets it!

Thats a really great idea, I was looking for something like that but could never find one so I started one online instead although I haven't updated it in ages . I have got pics on my pc and i've put them all into a folder called Laura's pregnancy bump so I can look back to see how much I grew each week and show my baby where they lived for 9 months!

Mildly - I have also kept my pregnancy test! glad i'm not the only one who did that!

 

[MagicMarkers]

[~*Leanne*~]

Me too! and i have put it in my journal
