I have 4 kids and one of these for each of them. They made keeping track of what questions I had for the doc, weight changes, allowed meds, etc a lot easier. I don’t think (as a first time mom) that I would’ve known just what to write down. As I’ve gone along with other pregnancies, I’ve learned to be more detailed in my writing and now go back to past journals as reference materials. Just when did heartburn kick in? When did I get to the point when I had trouble sleeping or rolling over?
The cons, as other reviewers have noted, mainly have to do with the layout. It’s just not as easily accessible as it could be. I dealt with this by getting reusable sticky page markers and wrote the most important sections down: OB Appointments, Journal area, etc. Another beef I had was that there weren’t quite enough slots for the appointments for me. There were periods when I had more frequent visits than usual and I ended up having to write on the reverse side of the previous page. If you have a difficult pregnancy, this may be an issue. Also, they only give you a small square for each week of journaling. I had way more to write than I had space and ended up writing very tiny to squeeze it all in.
Keep a pencil with it with a book/magazine to read in a small tote bag to grab on your way to the OB’s. Just don’t keep it where small children can get to it…

The previous poster must be reviewing the wrong book or the planner, because this journal and organizer is AMAZING — and not a calendar.
This has a daily journal that you can fill in, and it has an entire organizer section that includes things like doctor visits and recommendations, a fill in birth plan, exercise and weight gain tracker, place to list all the people to call when you’re in labor, a place to write down things to help shopping for baby, and lots more.
I had the old version of this book for my last pregnancy and filled every inch. I just bought this new version for my current pregnancy and can’t wait to start filling in this one. A definite five-star!!

This organizer is great if you actually use it. The best parts are the areas to write down questions for your next dr. visit, and what dr. told you at each visit. Also has areas for tracking daily movements (after 5 months), and an area to make sure you’re getting the appropriate number of servings of each food type in the food pyramid, daily. I used that dedicatedly and only gained 20 pounds!!!!WOW Also has area to record baby gifts received, thank you notes written, baby names you like etc. and it’s only about 1 inch thick. Easily fit in my purse for Dr. visits.
I will definitely get another one for my next pregnancy.

The only thing I didn’t like was there are no pockets to put papers, phamplets, etc from the doctor/hospital. Otherwise I think the pages are great and has plenty of places to record your information.

I wanted something a little more fun to record my pregnancy. My mom picked this up for me when I requested a journal. In looking over it I think there are too many lists and questions. I was looking more for something fun to write some thoughts down, put some pictures in. I think I won’t use most of this book because I’m not really a list person. If you are more organized and enjoy making lists, than this book is good for you.
