Default Pregnancy Diary

Who kept one? And did you enjoy reading it after birth?

I have a diary that i bought when i was about 8 weeks and still havent started it! Just wondering if anyone went back and read it after you gave birth?

I haven't kept a diary as such but I have gone back and re read my posts from my Due In Nov 05 group...it's so good to read my thoughts and feelings in my first pregnancy as well as the ups and downs..

I am going to copy them into a word document and keep them for DD...it will certainly be a very well documented diary...she may not want to read some of the early TTC stuff about when Mummy and Daddy 'did it' so I will edit as I go along.

Do it do it! I kept one during my pregnancy with DS from the day after I got my BFP and I still write in it now. I love reading back on it when I have a friend who is at a particular stage in their pregnancy, to relive what it was like for me, or recently I was pregnant again (unfortunately ended in miscarriage) and it was great to read back to remember when different symptoms kicked in etc.

Ive been keeping one kind of! Just a paragraph here or there... written to Squishy, things like family reactions and how we told them and possible names and symptoms and appointments... I cant wait to show it to our bubba when they are old enought to want to know!
