Scrapbook étiquette....

I'm working on a scrapbook for the baby, do you think it would be "tacky" to include a page with a brief story of how we found out I was pregnant with a picture of the positive hope pregnancy test?

  • No, I think it would be cute!  The story has to start somewhere. : )

    I actually made the first page of my DS#1's scrapbook a picture of us right after we first met. It was the first family event he invited me to so it was pretty important to me and even though it's not the pregnancy test it was the start of the journey.

  • I think it's cute, too.  As mabma80 said, that's the beginning of the story.  (Well, the true beginning may be a bit too graphic for a baby's scrapbookWink)

  • No i think it's cute. That is how I've told DH we were pregnant every time...in a pic message.

  • Not at all!  I'm an avid scrapbooker, and I tend to put a lot of personal things in my scrapbooks.  Go for it!
  • Not tacky at all. I included both of these into my Belly Book as well.

  • Not at all! I took a picture of the positive tests and they are part of the first page of my LO's scrapbook, as well as a little story about how we reacted. I think it's adorable, and definitely recommend you do it.
  • I have pics of the BFP test in Riley's scarpbook and in the one that I already started for #2, so no I don't think it's tacky at all!!!!!!

    PS> all my friends that see that page go "Man!  I wish I took pics of my HPG!"

  • I'm planning on doing the same thing. I think it is important to the story of our babies life. I wouldn't go into a ton a detail about symptoms if that clued you in to your little blessing (i.e. descriptions of tender boobs, vomiting, and missed period) but there is nothing tacky about the story and a pic of the HPT.  Happy scrapbooking!
