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

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.

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.

My Daughter's Favorite
Out of all the books we saw at the local book store, my daughter loved this one the most. I wanted to surprise her, so I didn't purchase it there with her and purchased it here instead. It's a great gift and we felt like it was the best Baby's First Year book out of all the ones we currently saw available. It is good quality and super cute!

Best baby book out there
I searched all over for a book that was simple, and cute and found this! The illustrations are so cute and this book keeps track of baby's first year, which was exactly what I wanted. Most baby books I saw on Amazon were for 0-5 years old. I also had the story book on my registry before even seeing this. I am definitely getting that as well. This would easily be a amazing baby shower gift!

Excellent baby book
All 3 of my kiddos have this book, it's thoughtful and cute without being over-extra and requiring too much input. I love the extra stickers in the back for monthly progress pictures and the envelopes to include keepsakes like hospital bracelets and hair from their first haircut!

Really recommend it. It’s so cute, creative and the perfect amount of pages, illustrations and nice thick paper. There’s little envelopes for things like hospital bracelet, hair locks and first tooth. Lovely hard cover book. Buy it!

Es justamente lo que estábamos buscando, tiene gráficos y fuentes muy lindos. Y la selección de información es la adecuada además de tener espacio para poner fotos y guardar pequeños recuerdos en sobres.

Journal for babies . It has eye catching attatchements such as first tooth storage bag ; space for photos ; lots of data and also stickers at the back page ( if I am not wrong). Looks really decent . Best for gifting

Gorgeous book and lovely quality. The illustrations are perfect and it has just the right amount of detail. Not too much and not too little. The little pockets in the book are cute too. I have three kids and this is my favourite memory book so far and is superior in quality.
