The Moments and Milestones Pregnancy Journal offers the expectant mother a week-by-week guide to her baby’s development and her own physical and emotional changes. And there’s plenty of space for her to explore and record her thoughts, hopes, and wishes along with the events that mark this special time.

I've looked through a TON of pregnancy journals...and this is the best one I have found. I purchased the same book for both of my pregnancies. I've found that for the first pregnancy I was writing in the book each week...but for the 2nd pregnancy I would do it every other week. BUT, it was fun to see how I felt and what was happening and compare one book to the next. I definitely would recommend this book.

The book is a great book for the parent (first time more so than 2nd etc), but not a great book to pass to your child. Some of the topics that are discussed as very personal and adult, and not something you want your child to read as they grow up.

Not much space for journaling.

No pockets for collecting U/S pictures, memories etc.

Just finding out I'm pregnant is a very scary but exciting time of my life! This book explains what will happen EACH WEEK with YOU and your baby, which is fantastic. It advises what medication you should take if you have a headache, every little bit of information is fantastic, very helpful. would recommend.
