      The Mother of All Pregnancy Organizers - Ann Douglas

      Operation Healthy Baby

      The moment the sperm and the egg hooked up in the darkest recesses of your fallopian tube, you signed on for a super-secret mission called Operation Healthy Baby — a mission so secret, in fact, that for the first few weeks of your pregnancy, you didn’t even know you’d been recruited!

      Super-secret spy stuff aside, your mission over the next nine months is pretty straightforward: to do everything in your power to maximize your chances of having a healthy baby. That means gaining a healthy amount of weight, ensuring that your body gets an ample supply of nutrients, and avoiding substances that could be harmful to your baby.

      This section helps you keep track of both your health and the health of your growing fetus throughout your pregnancy. In between discovering useful tips on choosing a caregiver and detailed information about what to expect in your prenatal visits, you’ll also find pages to record your first signs of pregnancy, write down the addresses and phone numbers of your caregivers, fill in information that your caregiver will ask for at your first visit, and keep an eye on any medications you’re taking.

      This section also helps you log your first and 14 subsequent prenatal visits to your caregiver. These pages provide spaces for the time and date of each visit with your caregiver — fill these in as you schedule each appointment, and you’ll never miss a prenatal visit! You’ll also find areas to note the multitude of questions you have for your doctor or midwife, as well as space to jot down his or her recommendations. For each prenatal visit, you’ll also find a reassuring tip or fact that may help to eliminate at least one of your worries, as well as room to write down your current health statistics, such your estimated due date, weight, blood pressure, pulse, test results, and contractions. Throughout your pregnancy, you can also use this section to keep track of your baby’s health information, including his or her fetal heart rate and fundal height (the distance from the top of your pubic bone to the top of your uterus; a way of measuring your baby’s growth).

      First Signs of Pregnancy
