What to use after Belly Book?

I am recording this pregnancy in the Belly Book right now. It is easy and I like it a lot. But I am very disappointed that there are no sections for after the baby is born.

Anyone have book recommendations for capturing babies first words, first steps, first day of school, and so on? I think there used to be books about the baby's first seven years, but I'm not sure what would be best.

Any thoughts?

Re: What to use after Belly Book?

  • I found one at hobby lobby. I'm not quite sure if that's what you're looking for. It's like a memory book and it has pages for pictures and areas to write down big moments etc. I used their 40 percent off coupon so the book was about 12 dollars. They had a few to choose from. I filled out the beginning part of it already. Sorry if this isn't what you are looking for!

  • For DS I had a baby's first year calendar that had stickers for the milestones. So I hung it next to our actual calendar and wrote notes when baby did cute stuff and added stickers for the milestones. It was easier than using the baby book. I went back and filled in my baby book with the milestones later.

    When DS started school I purchased a book that covers elementary years and has room for all the info, pics, and pockets for report card, awards, etc.

    The author of the Belly Book also has a baby book. I believe it's called My Baby Book. I used both for DD and bought them again for this baby. I also did a separate calendar for DD. I would write in it weekly and would work on the baby book monthly.

    Yep!  I purchased this a few months ago when it was a special on Zulily.  It's currently $13.59 on Amazon.  Here's a link:

    This is only the baby's first year though....
