I have been keeping notes each week on my symptoms, appointments, and anything else related to the pregnancy, but now I want to transform it into more of a scrapbook with pictures and other fun things. So, I wanted to know if anyone else is creating a pregnancy journal or scrapbook? If so, what types of things are you including in it? One thing I was thinking about doing are some of the Old Wives tales for predicting the gender just for fun and then including a page dedicated to the theories and what each theory predicted and then the page dedicated for week 20 is where I would would reveal the gender. What other things would you include?

  • I did a Shutterfly book for DD. I went from the day we found out she was coming through her first birthday. I wrote letters and included tons of pictures. I used one of those free photo book coupons that they periodically send. The coupon is only good for 20 free pages, and her book ended up being somewhere around 67 or so. I ended up having to pay a bit, but not as much as if I hadn't have had the code.

  • I bought a pregnancy journal, but I'm so bad about it! I ended up taking a template from a favorite blog and using that in word. I hate my handwriting so typing it is so much better. I'll print them out and put in the journal. Not quite as personal, but...meh.

  • I use the WTEWYE journals. I'm on my third one, and I always look back at the first two. Very glad I have them.

  • I did the "From Pea to Pumpkin" Journal with my daughter. I loved it, it was short and sweet and had plenty of places for pictures, ultrasounds, and places to write in sweet things. 

    I haven't started anything for these two little boo boos yet, but I guess I should get on it...
  • I'm using the belly book. Bought it on Amazon
