A newborn notebook is a great place to keep track of all the little things you notice about your baby. Their teeny tiny fingers, their scrunchy sleepy face, the cooing sounds they make in their sleep. It's utterly consuming, and it changes so fast. You want to document it all! Traditional newborn notebooks are tough to keep up with, though. Baby Notebook meets you where you are by helping you build your baby book on your phone in just a few minutes a week.
Creating a Gorgeous Newborn Notebook with an App
Baby Notebook's Baby Book combines all the best parts of a newborn notebook with a complete baby book. It preserves your baby's first year along with the months leading up to their birth. The app is designed to simplify your life and help you create a stunning baby book at the same time. Its features will make it your new best friend in documenting your baby's first year.
Traditional newborn notebooks, like all memory books, run the risk of turning into a bit of a mess. Bulky memorabilia, scribbled notes, and poorly pasted photos aren't the most beautiful to look at. At Baby Notebook, we create coffee table-worthy memory books. They're clean and timeless.
Customer Olivia was thrilled with the quality of her baby book. She said, “I just received my baby book yesterday and I am so impressed! The quality of the photos, and the sturdiness of the book are just gorgeous. I love the size. It's not too big and not too small. It looks great on our bookcase and also on the coffee table.”
Keeping It Simple with the Baby Notebook App
These are some of the ways the Baby Notebook app makes it easier to create your beautiful newborn notebook.
Chapters Designed for Each Stage of Your Journey
As moms, Baby Notebook's co-founders understand that your child's journey starts with you. Before your baby arrives, you go through so many changes. We honor that by making Chapter 1 all about life leading up to baby. The chapter is titled Pregnancy, but adoptive parents can retitle it “Before You” or something similarly appropriate.

In our Baby Book, other chapters leading up to the Newborn chapter include Family, Home, and Birth. You get to set the stage for those blurry, beautiful newborn days. By the time your baby is born, you'll already have started a gorgeous baby book.
The newborn stage has its own chapter along with one titled Firsts. In the Newborn chapter, we include space for photos of hands and feet. You could photograph your little one's hands and feet or include photos of their handprints and footprints. The Baby Notebook app makes it easy to include photos of loose items like footprints and hospital bracelets, which are awkward to paste into a traditional baby book.
Notifications to Keep Your Newborn Notebook Up to Date
Keeping up with a newborn notebook can seem like an impossible task when you're in the early days of parenthood. The Baby Notebook App allows you to set personalized notifications to keep you on top of updates. Pick a day and time that works for you. You'll receive notifications with prompts and inspiration. All it takes is a few minutes a week to stay up to date and have a completed baby book by your baby's first birthday.
Prompts that Inspire You
When you set up your Baby Notebook App notifications, we'll send you prompts that keep you writing. Check out examples of prompts from Months 1-3 in this blog post. And we don't send you just one! If something doesn't resonate with you, you can always pick from a list of evergreen prompts in the app.
Flexibility for Every Family
We understand that not every family forms in the same way. That's why we built an unmatched level of flexibility into our app. Traditional baby books may have family trees and other features that exclude a lot of families. The Baby Notebook App allows subscribers to
- Edit titles and prompts
- Replace or rearrange pages
- Hide, or add pages
This level of flexibility makes the Baby Notebook App great for adoptive families, LGBTQIA+ families, and single-parent families. Learn more about how you can tailor your Baby Notebook to your family's unique story here.
