There are spots in the journal that I bought for the first couple of weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148665 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 17:52:41 +0000 FannyMae 2148665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a small blank page journal that I just write things into as I go along. I did make an entry for my previous pregnancy that was a miscarriage too, because I want to keep a record of symptoms and what happened. I have to get around to writing something for the last 8 weeks though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148664 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 17:50:05 +0000 Cole 2148664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was being mildly superstitious and I enjoy scrapbooking too. I bought a weekly planner and used it as a one sentence journal and I took weekly photos. Later I used my notes and photos to do a shutterfly book. I probably bought it around 8 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148634 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 17:06:39 +0000 Hoots 2148634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought one from Amazon 2 days ago at 8 weeks. I got it in the mail today, but I don't think I'll start filling it out yet. It's completely stupid, but I don't want to jinx anything. But I wanted to choose one and get it here so at least I know what things to start keeping/thinking about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148517 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 13:10:53 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2148517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took a bump pic every week. Added words using "a beautiful mess" app to each picture. Then put all the pictures in a photo book. It was super easy/cheap and now I have a little keepsake! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148516 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 13:09:03 +0000 BSB 2148516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since I struggled with IF for 3 years, I actually started buying baby stuff a long time ago. It kept me hopeful that I would be a mom one day. </p> <p>Getting back to your question, I got a pregnancy journal from a flash sale and right now it's still boxed up in my garage. I've been meaning to go get it. Before this date, I was struggling with hyperemesis so I was not in the mood to do anything. I'm feeling better now that I'm on different meds. </p> <p>I, too, am worried about starting to journal and something bad happens. I'm at 14 weeks now and probably a good time to start journaling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148511 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 13:02:52 +0000 HourThyme 2148511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Oops, should have included that! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148508 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 13:01:19 +0000 simplyfelicity 2148508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is "it hadn't occurred to me" an option? :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-buy-a-pregnancy-journal#post-2148507 Sat, 18 Apr 2015 13:00:20 +0000 HourThyme 2148507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am an avid scrapbooker, or well at least I used to be until grad school took over my life.. Between defending my dissertation, finishing my doctorate and the busyness of every day life I have not done as much lately. Still, I would love to have a pregnancy journal to lead into a baby book. </p> <p>My question is, when do you think I should buy this? I'm only 8 weeks and have been scared to buy it so far because what if I order one start filling it out and then I miscarry. Some irrational part of me feels like it's almost inviting something bad to happen. Then a more rational part of me thinks that even if something did happen I would still want a record of my first pregnancy??</p> <p>When do you think is a good time to buy one? And also, do you know of a good one? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-journal-recommendations#post-2120218 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 15:07:20 +0000 natalie403 2120218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anya: Thanks!!

There's space for pictures and notes and it goes through the first year as well as pregnancy.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Birthday-Pregnancy-Journal-American-English/dp/1907048480" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Birthday-Pregnancy-Journal-American-English/dp/1907048480</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-journal-recommendations#post-2118530 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 14:04:29 +0000 natalie403 2118530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi ladies! As a first time mama, I am looking into getting some kind of pregnancy journal? I was originally going to scrapbook my ultrasounds and bump pix but I thought it might be nice to have some journaling in it as well. I've been going through online and it's hard to find the best one! Ideally I would like to be able to include photos in it.</p> <p>Any recommendations and why??? </p> <p>Thanks! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pregnancy-phone-apps#post-598686 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 21:37:40 +0000 lawbee11 598686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have What to Expect and Sprout. (I didn't like the BabyCenter one.) The info on the WTE app is awesome. I love the week by week updates. The info on the Sprout app is kinda lame and the pictures of the baby before 11-12 weeks are a little creepy. But I love the weight tracker and appointment tracker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pregnancy-phone-apps#post-598648 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 21:18:23 +0000 Charm54 598648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not really a tracker, but I like Sprout, BabyCenter, and What to Expect apps for great week by week info and pics of what the baby looks like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pregnancy-phone-apps#post-598605 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 21:04:09 +0000 T.H.O.U. 598605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bump </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pregnancy-phone-apps#post-557204 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:35:06 +0000 kjpugs 557204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What are everyone's favorite pregnancy tracking apps for smart phones? Any good journaling apps to track symptoms and changes? I know if I don't write everything down I'll forget :) TIA! </p>
