Great gift for Expectant Moms

I have bought this as a gift for 5 of my friends, and they all really love it. Most pregnancy journals are quite cheesy, and don't capture the unique and magical time of pregnancy. This book allows you to really write how you feel, rather than rely on cartoons and silly sentence starters like many other journals.

What I had searched for during my 1st trimester!

This pregnancy journal is just what I had been looking for all during my 1st trimester of pregnancy. It is simple and has a certain elegance about it. I am not attracted to all the cute cartoons and adorable illustrations on most of the baby-related things out there. That's okay for the baby, but I am an adult and felt like I wanted something that looked like it was for an adult. The binding has a off-white cloth cover over the edge, but the inside is spiral-bound, so it is easy to write in. I am a longtime journal writer, so this appealed to me and I wanted a timeless gift to give my baby one day when he/she is an adult. As the cover indicates, there are beautiful black & white photographs at the biginning of each section. The sections are divided by trimester and there are also sections titled: Considering Pregnancy and Bringing Baby Home. There are a few spots for photos, but not too many. Each trimester section has places to record your feelings, fears, questions for your monthly visits, qualities you want in your birth place and whoever delivers your baby and takes care of you in your prenatal months. (And many many more!)There is sufficient room for your thoughts and I would strongly recommend this journal if you are looking for a classic look.
