The Wonderful Baby You Are: A Record of Baby's First Year: Baby Memory Book with Milestone Stickers and Pockets

Final choice after many orders
I ordered so many baby books for my first child, who knew they could vary so much. These were the important factors to me-Being more about the baby as opposed to my pregnancy. Ive already been journaling in a book called "40ish weeks" which is a great pregnancy journal and something I look forward to passing onto my son. I didnt need another version of it.Not being massive, nor being too small to comfortably write in.Not having weird info like vaccination schedules. I didnt need my baby book to resemble a "to do list" or google doc. I can use an app for keeping track of things like that and do not think my son (or anyone for that matter) will find that interesting.The artwork wasnt a high priority but something more gender neutral was preferred, and not too baby like. Maybe thats an oxymoron but its not a baby Im passing this on to, rather my son when he's grown.After ordering soooo many books I realized this was my list of important features, and it became really hard to find something I felt met these needs. It came down to this book and the "Le petit Baby Book," also a beautiful book but inevitably ended up being too big and full of art pop-ups which are cute, but an unnecessary waste of space. This book really includes all the important milestones without being superfluous or excessive. The art is tasteful and adorable and there are plenty of spaces for photos and keepsakes. It also includes very cute photo corners which will add to the scrapbook vibe. All in all I think this book suits me best without overwhelming me to include every little minute detail of babies life.

Beautiful keepsake
Was so impressed by the charm and quality of this keepsake for my child. Artistry is delicate and whimsical. I have really enjoyed working through each page and what is to come when my child reaches certain milestones. Highly recommend this product. I purchased several others before and returned them all.

Very cute baby book
Made the perfect baby book! I used my Kodak printer for the “months” and able to put 16 of those fit on a page instead of just having to choose one photo

Perfect baby book
I adore this book! I looked at pretty much every highly rated baby book on Amazon and settled on this one. So glad I did. Not too expensive, high quality paper, sweet text and lots of room for pictures and other keepsakes. Plus the illustrations are extremely charming. The cover is nice and sturdy and the paper is thick so I believe this will last a long time (as it should!). This will be on my list of gifts for moms-to-be from now on. I love it, it's the cutest darn thing.Please note, it is not a pregnancy book! It's a first year milestone and keepsake book.

A great way to journal baby's first year
I am a first time mom and was trying to decide between this and other baby books available on the market. I chose this one because it was just so beautiful. I loved flipping through the pages and that the baby's first year is an evolving story rather than a series of firsts and photos.One thing to note is that this book does not have as much space for photos as some competitors. This may be a con for some but personally I get annoyed when memory books have boxes for photos that are either (1) too small (2) the wrong orientation (3) not a memory that I captured or holiday that I celebrate. With a camera phone and an internet connection, it's super easy to make custom photobooks where you're not restricted by predetermined entry suggestions, photo sizes or orientation. Even here, this memory book shines because the photo space is so generous that you can always add any photo you like.Instead it has more journaling space which my camera phone cannot capture. I love that the prompts will help me memorialize the joys and struggles of the first year. Planning on only having one kid and really hoping this helps me remember that once in a lifetime experience.

Simple and minimalist for baby's first year
It's well made and beautifully illustrated, includes milestones pages but not prefilled with anything too specific so you can decide which milestone is important to you and fill it with the details you want. (For example: in another baby book it had a whole page dedicated to the naming process, having you list ALL the potential names for boy and girl... Which is too much for me so that would not be filled out and essentially wasted space) It's elegant, simple, and minimalist which is what I love about it. I really just want to capture the big moments with a few keepsake snapshots. The second half of the book is dedicated to months 1 -12 and space for pictures and a few details. It also has some stickers in the back for you to take those monthly photos as well and photo corners.

Precious. Perfect Gender Neutral Book
This baby book is prefect. It is perfectly gender neutral if you are keeping that a surprise! The illustrations are so sweet and it has a good amount of places for pictures and holding keepsakes. Very excited to fill this out for my child’s first year!

Gender neutral and very thorough
I bought this book for my first baby due in August. As the youngest of my family, I was cursed with having very little filled out in my baby book so I vowed to fill out my kids’ baby books as much as possible (we’ll see how that goes). This book is definitely thorough, even including prompts about the parents as a couple (which, yes, is a little presumptive), envelopes to hold the first lock of hair and first tooth (kinda weird), and stickers to hold the corners of monthly photos. The illustrations are adorable and gender neutral, which was very important to me in my search of finding the perfect baby book. I didn’t want a Pepto-Bismol pink, overly floral, or obnoxiously bright book for my baby girl. I would have to say this is probably best for a first child because of how thorough it is; there are a lot of tiny details to fill out. My one teeny tiny complaint about the book I received is that there was a random blue smudge on one of the pages. Obviously just a fluke and not a dealbreaker. At the price, you really can’t beat this book. Can’t wait to fill it out!
