The journey of pregnancy and having a baby is such a huge, mind-blowing, life-changing experience that you'd think it impossible to forget each and every stage and all the emotions that go hand-in-hand. But you do forget, the tiny details at least which are often the ones which are so joyous to be remembered. Like your first scan, your last day at work, the day you and your partner finished off the nursery, the day you bought your babies teddy that will stay with them for the rest of their life. There are so many memories and feelings, probably more than you will ever experience at any other time of your life, and it would be a crying shame not to be able to re-visit them and relish in them all over again.
A Pregnancy Journal can help you do that and it can also be a wonderful gift to your child later in life. During your pregnancy, write a diary to your unborn child telling them how you're feeling, how you are changing, how they are growing, what you are enjoying, and what you're not enjoying! A daily schedule of your life before baby arrives will be very different to that of when they are born! Include your maternity notes, scan pictures, baby shower cards, all reminders of the time leading up to the birth, and a lovely idea is to keep a newspaper from the day your baby is born so they can see what was going on in the world the day they were born.
