Re: michele31- a layout

here are some journaling ideas for you

Suggestions

journaling
when/how you found out you were pregnant, and how you felt
reactions of people you told
finding out baby's gender, including 'old wives tales'
baby name debate
anything on your mind!
pregnancy symptoms
food cravings
baby dreams you have
record your stats from the dr's office--weight, bp, etc. (it's interesting to look back on, and if your baby is a girl she might like to compare her pregnancy to yours someday)
poetry, such as this ultrasound poem or songs, such as Elton John's 'Blessed' or Creed's 'Arms Wide Open' or Rod Stewart's 'Forever Young'
Photos to include
positive pregnancy test
mom (and dad) the day you found out
mom at regular intervals, whether it's weekly or monthly or by trimester--from the side please!
dad (or mom) assembling baby furniture
decorating the nursery, finished nursery
baby showers--the hostesses, the guests, the gifts, the food, the games
ultrasound photos - notorious for deteriorating much more rapidly than photos. To increase the longevity of your ultrasounds, consider preserving them by scanning them into your computer and/or using a photo kiosk (like the one at Wal-Mart) to make actual photographic prints of your ultrasounds
siblings with mommy's tummy
Professional portraits--many women have professional portraits done of themselves alone, or with the father, or with older children, with the focus on mommy's tummy. I've seen some really nice ones done with window light.
Memorabilia--this one's wide open! Just be sure that your memorabilia does not touch your photos, in case it contains harmful chemicals that could destroy your photos. There are many clear plastic envelopes on the market that are ideal for displaying memorabilia
some pregnancy tests come with 'keepsake indicators'
receipts or tags from maternity clothes or nursery items
swatches of fabric from maternity clothes or nursery items, or paint chip or wallpaper from nursery
shower invitations, cards
Calendar Pages -- use these to record special dates, such as
the day you found out you were pregnant
doctors appointments--mommy's weight gain, baby's heart rate, special comments by doctor
when you told family & friends
due date, and actual birth date
date you chose baby name
what Mommy was feeling like - things that made her feel nausea
shower dates
decorating the nursery
