Promptly Journals, A Complete Childhood History: From Pregnancy to 18 Years Old (Aloe Green, Leatherette) | Baby Book and Pregnancy Journal | Baby Memory Book

This is such a great journal. The prompts are great and give me ideas on what to say about my child, but aren’t too hard to answer. I love that there’s extra space so that I can add other thoughts that the prompts don’t cover. I’ve had this journal for over a year now (bought it while pregnant and my baby is now 13 months!) and I still love it. I will say, it can be a bit time consuming for that first year of life since there’s a section for every month, but I love it. It probably took me 1-2 hours each month to fill it out, but I do like to write a lot. Just saying, if you’re looking for a super quick and easy baby book, this probably isn’t the one for you. I’m so excited to have this book grow with my child. I can definitely handle 1-2 hours per year to journal for them. I wish I journaled more but I just don’t , so this is fantastic for catching those summaries. I just bought a second one for my baby on the way.

Have these for each of my children. Bring to hospital to take them out a newborn foot print in. I like how it prompts specific info based on age but also leaves room for adding what you want!! Definitely not overwhelming for a busy mom to complete, great keepsake for child memories!

This is a great option for a keepsake book. It has questions about my baby each month that I will want to remember as well as plenty of space for special moments/thoughts to write in. There is also a page for pictures, I use my Polaroid. Thus book is pretty, simple and I like that it’s hard covered. I’ve purchased it 3 times, I would definitely recommend.

I almost never write reviews, but feel compelled to do so now. I am currently 19 weeks pregnant with our first child, and have long known that I would want to keep some sort of record - a combination of writing and photos - of this pregnancy and of our child’s life. (And for our future children, too). This journal is beautiful and elegant and perfectly suited for just that. I have kept personal journals for close to 20 years, so I really appreciate that this journal includes lots of space for writing, and yet somehow also encourages being concise enough that our child may actually want to read this one day, possibly unlike my volumes upon volumes of personal journals. I love the family tree section. And each section (including each trimester of pregnancy, the section for the birth, each month of the first year, and a separate section for each year after that) includes space on one page to add a few photos, pages to add examples of your child’s artwork, etc. If you’re looking to use this as a photo album, you’ll want to look elsewhere. But if you want to capture memories and sweet details you’re likely to forget later, with a few most memorable photos at each age and stage, then this journal is perfect for you. I’d also recommend using an archival ink pen (available at any craft store), as my own experience keeping journals has shown that the ink of even what seemed to be high quality pens bled out yellow and faded as years passed. Buy this journal!

Such a good journal to have when recording all of your baby and children’s milestones - I felt like I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with it, but it is super easy and outlines all the questions that you will want to remember in the future. I highly recommend getting these for your pregnancy and child.

I looked at many many many baby journals and first year books. I'm in my third trimester so I have to go back and fill it out, but I remember most things. The questions seem very thoughtful and I like all the extra space at the end of each "chapter" to add additional notes or stories or whatever comes up, maybe paste in extra pictures. I know I won't be able to keep up with a scrapbook, but I like the idea of a journal I can leave on my bookshelf and write in when I remember. Its beautiful and I'm tempted to order another in case we have another child, they could match. *** I'm Canadian, and really loved the look of this book (and that it is from pregnancy to 18 years, so a good investment) so I took the plunge and ordered it. After cost, shipping, duties, exchange, it ended up being about $65 CAD. Just an FYI. I could have ordered it from the promptly website, but I wasn't sure it would be more or less expensive than amazon.

I am 25 weeks pregnant with my first child. My mom suggested I try journaling my experience, so I came here to find a nice journal. Most of the journals are super cutesy/baby-like and not my style at all. I found this one, and it is perfect! I love the simple elegance of the book, the binding, and the page layouts. I love that it goes all the way through 18 years. It has plenty of space for writing from prompts or just writing in general, plus places to attach pictures, the family tree, place the handprints/footprints. I think this will be an amazing memento for my daughter once she is older. I might buy one more just in case we decide to have another child, so they can have a similar book. Highly recommend!

i love these journals! the prompts make them so easy to use and allow plenty of space to write without just the prompts. love how it goes from pregnancy to 18!

Beautiful journal. Exactly what I wanted. Prompts are easy. Love it!

The journal is great but unfortunately received it damaged! Too bad as it’s not acceptable to gift it like that!

I love how these look on the outside, the fabric just looks beautiful and fancy. I don’t feel like I need to put them in a box like other baby books that aren’t as aesthetically pleasing on a bookshelf. Love how thick they are and how there’s so much room for everything in there. It’s all so well done. I will buy another for sure for my next baby! Thank you for the best baby book!

Love this! Got one for each of my daughters. The prompts are way better than any baby book I’ve seen before

Every parent needs one of these for each of their children. It's so lovely to have everything in one place, the writing prompts are great, I love all of the space they give to write out extra memories and paste in pictures.
