A great way to connect with your little one... - I recommend this journal to all expecting mothers. It s a wonderful way to get a day by day update on your little one. I look forward to the quiet time I spend each morning having my breakfast and reading and writing in this journal. You will enjoy looking back at your entries even after your baby is born and you ll be able to share your specific experiences with your child when he or she is old enough!
An Enjoyable Reading for pregnant women - This journal was what I really want to keep me company during my pregnancy. It answered all my questions, doubts and confusions. The exact questions answered by this journal was Why am I craving for bananas when I was 10 weeks pregnant? It said that because the baby need potasium and it s really there on my 10th week development page! I REALLY recommend this book to every pregnant women! Your doctor can t answer your phone calls everyday.. but this journal will. Thanks a lot!
Keeps you Involved Everyday - Out of the several books we ve read during my pregnancy, this one has meant the most to us. It was especially comforting in the early weeks when nothing noticeable (except tiredness and nausea) was happening. It told me what day the heart started beating, what day the arms and legs budded and what day movement started and so on. It made me feel like I was part of the growth going on in there even before I felt or saw it. Reading what is happening to the baby that day is an exciting way to make the miracle tangible even before you re showing and especially comforting when the symptoms are getting difficult. It s a MUST HAVE for all pregnant families.
Tons of Information, With Room for Your Own Observations! - I LOVE THIS BOOK! When I first discovered I was pregnant I purchased the book: What to Expect When You Are Expecting. I wish I had purchased this book first. It is so much more helpful and supportive. Like many books written about pregnancy, it breaks information down into the 9 lunar months of pregnancy. The difference is that it offers information about each day of your pregnancy. Fascinating tidbits about how your baby is growing, what is taking place in your body and important facts about nutrition and health. It also includes quotes about children that are sometimes humorous, sometimes philosophical, and always uplifting. Also included, trivia about childbirth in other cultures. On each page, there is room to write your thoughts about the baby and your pregnancy. Each month you can chart your waist size and weight. This will make a great keepsake that your son or daughter can enjoy later. They will find it fascinating to know of your mental and emotional as well as physical interactions with them from the moment of their conception or from the moment you knew you were pregnant. If you are on a tight budget and can only afford one book for your pregnancy, choose this one!
A very informative and supportive book - My husband and I bought the book when I was 15 days pregnant. This book has made the pregnancy real for him, provided us with solid information and great conversation topics. Every evening he asks to see the book. This is one book to keep on the nightstand though you may not always find it on your side of the bed.
