For the mom-to-be who wants every part of this season in one calm place, The Pregnancy and Baby's First Year is a 263-page printable binder that carries you from the first positive test to baby's first birthday. Plan your care team, think through your birth choices, track the newborn days and save the memories, all in a clean black and white design with thin line icons that prints beautifully at home.
Eight tabbed sections, with printed tabs down the edge of the pages so you can flip straight to what you need. A welcome page up front lists every section with its page range, and a printing guide shows which logs to reprint and how often.

A NOTE ON HEALTH INFORMATION
This binder is an organizer and keepsake. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for care from your midwife, OB or pediatrician. The information pages share several perspectives and say where research is limited, and every decision page leaves room for you to decide together with your care team. Always talk with your provider before trying any herb, supplement, essential oil, food change or exercise, and call them (or 911 in an emergency) if something feels wrong. Information is current as of October 2026, with a sources page at the back.
PRINT IT YOUR WAY
Undated, so start wherever you are today: trying to conceive, newly expecting, or already holding your newborn. Wherever a page says partner or support person, it means whoever walks this road with you. Print the whole binder or just the sections you need. Three printable sizes are included: US Letter, A4 and A5, and you can print pages from the fillable version too.
WHAT YOU GET
Four PDF files: printable US Letter, A4 and A5, plus a fillable version in US Letter size only, available to download as soon as your order goes through.
Digital download only. No physical item will be shipped.
