1st Trimester

Those who bought the Belly Book

What date did you use for Belly Week One?  Did you fill it out as if Belly Week One started with conception?  (On that page they ask your possible date of conception and if you have an inkling you're pregnant, which of course would be impossible if you're using the LMP method of counting weeks.)

Since it only has 39 weeks total, and is written as if 1st tri ends at 12 weeks, I'm trying to figure out where to start.

Re: Those who bought the Belly Book

  • For weeks 1-3 I had nothing to write & no pictures. I started with week 4 with symptoms (that's the week I found out & my missed period) and then took my first belly pic at week 5. I know it's odd that they have such early weeks in there that most can't fill out since they dont know they're pregnant yet! :)

  • For weeks 1&2 I just wrote what was happening in my life during that time, and how I was feeling about everything.  Week 3 is when I got my BFP, so I started the real stuff for then.

  • Yeah, I did a belly book with DD and the dates in the begininng are all messed up. I think they kind of set it up strange too. This time I started week one as when we conceived and am going from there... I think. Now I have to look again. lol.

    Thanks.  I think I'm going to do this too.  I'll fill out Belly Week One for when I was "2 weeks pregnant" (conception), Week Two for when I was three weeks pregnant, etc.  That way when I get to the end of the first tri portion of the book, at Belly Week Twelve, I'll be 13 weeks pregnant and that will be the "real" end of the first tri.  Thanks, ladies!

  • I had the same problem.  I posted this question when I first got it...a few months ago.  I never did figure it out.  I'm pretty sure I skipped weeks 1-3
  • For the first 2 weeks I am just using pics of me and hubby at the time.... I found out when i was 3 weeks 6 days and yes, I started taking pics then.... one a week. Even though I am not showing, there are subtle changes and I wanted to document the whole process....

    That's so great that you did that.  I haven't taken any yet, but I know my waistline has already changed so I regret not having ones from the early weeks.  Oh well, the biggest changes certainly are ahead!
