I purchased this healthtracks book/binder when my daughter was about 9 months old. I was so frustrated with trying to keep all my things in one folder, and it was already getting messy. There is a place to mark each tooth, when it comes in.... each illness... each prescription.... each physician visit, immunizations, and it goes all the way up to the teenage years. There is even a space to record menstrual cycles in girls! Holy COW! I wish I had this earlier, but I was happy to spend the time copying all my daughter's information into one place. It fits easily into the diaper bag for all my physician visits, and also has pockets inside to store shot records and other things that you may get from the physician office. It has areas for physician contact info, insurance information, etc. I feel like if anything ever happened to me, my husband or family would know what they needed to about my child's health.

UPDATE: we purchased a second healthtracks book for our 2 month old son... we had to get it from the authors' website, as Amazon no longer has it in stock. The binder has ever so slightly changed, but still has all the great features and I am very pleased to have one for each child.

Good idea if you love to keep detailed records. My son had surgery and it was a great place to keep all the info but didn't use it much for routine care

We found this to be so handy at doctor's appointments and also at looking back to see how big our son has gotten from one month to two, and so on. It's a great way to keep track of his immunizations also.

I bought this item for my daughter after her baby was born. With all of the stuff she needs to keep up with, organizing is a must. So, at least all of the items can be filed together for reference later when needed. It is easier to start out with an organizer than try to catch up later-so do it now.

I saw this book in a catalog and searched amazon and sure enough, there it was $10 cheaper. So I purchased the book and it was exactly what I was hoping it was. There is a lot of place to put oodles of information. Some of it can be repetative at times but overall this is a great tool. I like being able to see exactly what medications my child has taken at what times and just keeping a running track of all illnesses so that when I head to his dr. I can give her accurate information. Definitely pleased with my purchase.

I have an 8 week old son & so far, this book has been a great place to record his dr visits and track immunizations, medications, etc. I really like the pages of various growth charts. I can fill in his information and see percentiles and keep track of everything! I've already ordered a 2nd copy so that our next child will have a matching book :)

I gave this as a baby shower gift. It was a hit & she certainly didn't get two of them. New moms would be surprised how often you need to remember the stuff this book is designed to organize. My friend plans to by it for her sister who has a special needs child who has a lot of doctor appointments.
