Belly Pics and Journal
Has anyone bought a journal of somesort to keep belly pictures as you progess along and maybe add ultra sounds and notes of things you are thinking and feeling until LO arrives??
I have to run to the book store at some point, but was just wondering what is out there or if I have to buy a blank book

Re: Belly Pics and Journal
A couple of weeks ago.....I looked for something like that but didn't find exactly what I was thinking of.
So I decided, to buy a scrapbook and make my own......Just wanted to pass that along as an additional thought.
See if this works. My only friend who knows we're pg got me this.

I have this as well - I think it's cute and easy-to-use for peeps who aren't really into journals (but feel the need to do so while PG).
I found one at Indigo called "My Pregnancy Journal". It's a purple book that is square shaped. There is a pocket in the front that holds cute paper frames for framing the pictures you include. Each page prompts you to write about certain thoughts and topics, and the facing page tells you what picture to include (there are plenty of places for belly pics!). I personally would change what some of the pictures are, so I will create a little caption on the computer and print it onto card stock to cover the caption that is written in the book.
The book is super cute and makes a great gift (even if it's for yourself!)
It's the only journal I have found that allows you to include pictures. All other journals are more informative, or else you would just scrapbook a blank one.
HTH
I was looking for the same thing but when I read reviews on some of the pregnancy journals people complained about being too restricted.
I have created a word document that I am updating every week like a diary with pictures. I copied the 'how big is baby' info and picture from the bump for each week too. When I get a bit further along I will 'borrow' the pregnancy questionaire that a lot of people update in their blogs and add that too. Although it is a lot of work I am sure it will be great to read over in a few years. As all my photos are digital anyway it makes it really easy to drop the info straight into the word document.
At the end of the pregnancy I plan to transfer all the best bits into a mypublisher book.
you sound just like me....lol. i felt bad yesterday writing xmas cards before the thank you cards. i have been working on them since October i think now. haha, when was your wedding, we'll see who's more behind?

I don't remember if I have mentioned this before, but I live in Acworth/Kennesaw, too. I live off 41 across from the Blue Springs clock tower next to Walmart. The new town homes.
Sorry! Nothing to say about the book. I haven't found one I like yet. I just really wanted to point out the previous fact.
The Bellybook, I use it and its great. Its a week by week personal journal with belly pics. I got mine at Barnes and Noble.
