Pregnancy is a journey you take with your unborn child.
From the moment of its conception, until the day it comes
into the world, this is a time that a mother shares alone
with her baby. It is a special time. A time filled with
hope, with worry, and with dreams - but most of all it is a
time filled with love. Recording your pregnancy week by
week will allow you to relive this time once the baby is
born.
It is also a time full of change for the mother-to-be.
Slowly as the weeks go by your body will transform from one
that you recognize, to one that is adjusting to the size of
the baby it carries. Your feelings about the baby and the
pregnancy as a whole will also vary, as will your moods.
Writing down how you feel about the pregnancy week by week
will give an insight into how you felt during this special
time.
One way of recording your pregnancy week by week is to
write a weekly journal entry, either in a scrapbook or in a
computer file. Journal two separate things, how you feel,
symptoms you have experienced, any tests you had to have
and how they went. Then write about anything that comes to
mind that you want to share with the baby. This could be
in the form of a weekly letter, or just odd thoughts that
you write down to tell the baby when it's older.
Once pregnancy is established there are changes that happen
every week. Whether you are just recording your pregnancy
week by week weight, or whether you felt the baby move, or
the start of morning sickness, or the end of it, whether
you now know whether you are having a baby boy or girl and
what name you have chosen - these are all things that
should be recorded in the "moment" to capture the emotion
of how you feel.
Many pregnant women think that they will leave this kind of
thing until after the baby is born. The same women will
now tell you that that's not going to happen! Keeping a
pregnancy week by week journal ensures that you don't
forget the important little things that made you smile, and
want to share with the baby - like the time it developed
hiccups when you were in church, or the cravings you had
for the strangest things.
These memories of this precious time you share with your
baby are priceless. Record them in a pregnancy week by
week journal and share it with your child once it's old
enough to understand how special the journal is.
