The Bump Pregnancy Planner & Journal

I looked high and low for a pregnancy planner and this one was by far the best I found! I like that it's more gender neutral, since you obviously never know in the beginning boy or girl. I love that it prompts you to answer questions and write letters to baby (a little cheesy but I think it'll be cool to look at in the future). It gives some okay/good tips (for shower, nursery, etc.) and some parts make you think about things you might not have thought about planning. It has places for you to write your doctors appointments and what happened at each. Everything is broken down into sections which is nice. First, second, third trimester and then a post birth section too. Each trimester is separated by months where you can fill out information and begins with a folder you can place any documents or reminders in. Very well organized and asks relevant questions you actually want to answer.

I purchased this for my second pregnancy, after buying the same one and liking it for my first child. I like recording all my doc appointments and also answering all the journal questions each month. I think it’s a great keepsake to give to my kids someday. The hard cover and spiral set up make it very durable too.

Practical help to get through this mysterious time of the bump growing inside you. Pockets to store your sonogram and other keepsakes. Definitely a must especially if you are planning more children. You will have the details to compare your pregnancies that would otherwise just slip through your fingers and hound your attempts and recall. So keep a record. This little book is meant for that and it does it very well.

I was given this journal as a gift a few months into my pregnancy and it was such a huge help in making me feel more organized! It has an incredibly helpful checklist that goes week by week so it's not overwhelming and the different sections talk about what you may be experiencing during that time. I now give it to all of my pregnant friends.

This pregnancy planner & journal is really nice and well-made. It would be perfect if it had a blank calendar and a place to write your own "to-do" checklist. Even adding a few blank "Notes" page at the end would be a very helpful addition to this book. I'm surprised, really, there isn't space anywhere for unprompted writing. Also, note that the Gift Log section where you can track gifts and thank you cards only has 13 spots, so if you imagine that you'll be having a large baby shower (or multiple celebrations!), you likely won't be able to fit everyone into the book. The book I had with my first pregnancy also had a section to track things that I borrowed from other moms, which was very helpful so that I could remember where to return them when I was done! Overall, I enjoy the journal aspects of this planner, and it still has just enough organizational sections to keep me on track (which is what I really wanted).

This is adorable woll be getting one for each child o will have

Got this for my friends 1st pregnancy she needed something to do besides surf the net for bad medical advice and labor/delivery horror stories. She was so happy & excited to get it - had never seen one before. She loved it and I'm so glad it got her off the net & out of her hormonal head for a little bit ;)

Update: seller reached out and offered refund, very nice and pleasent message. Didnt require the need to send item back.Going through the book I noticed have the forst trimester only had 1 page to it where the 2nd and 3rd trimester had multiple pages. I checked the spiral spin and saw where someone ripped multiple pages out. Definitely not happy and not worth it.
