Pregnancy is a special and unique journey for every woman. During such a roller coaster of emotions, it is nice to commemorate the milestones and memories made along the way. Here are 10 ways to commemorate your pregnancy journey:
1. Scrapbooking
Preserve memories with a scrapbook or an online virtual baby book. Here you can store sonograms, photos, cards, and mementos of your pregnancy journey.
2. Professional Photo Shoot
Hire a professional photographer to take pictures during your pregnancy. You can add props such as letters that spell out baby’s name for your photoshoot.
3. Milestone Stickers
Stick a milestone sticker on your bump each week. These stickers come in both funny and memorable phrases to represent your weekly progress.
4. Get a Tattoo
Consider getting a tattoo as a permanent reminder of your pregnancy. You can get something simple such as an ultrasound, baby feet, or baby’s name.
5. Maternity Clothes
Buy a special item of maternity clothing that you can look back on 20 years from now. It can be a piece of clothing that you can wear during your delivery.
6. Write a Letter
Write a letter to your unborn baby beginning from the first week of your pregnancy until the day of their birth. Put the letters in a special box with other keepsakes such as the ultrasound and other mementos.
7. Record Your Experience
Make an audio or video recording every month of your pregnancy. In this recording, you can express your thoughts and emotions as you prepare for bringing a baby into the world.

Let your friends and family join in your special journey with a baby shower. Decorate the baby shower to commemorate the pregnancy milestone and collate all the pregnancy memories.
9. Create a Baby Time Capsule
Place items such as ultrasound pictures, mementos, and baby clothes in a time capsule that can be opened when the baby is older.
10. Take a Babymoon
Take a babymoon trip with your partner to commemorate the pregnancy. This will be the last trip before you become parents, making it a special memory to cherish.
These are all wonderful ways to commemorate your pregnancy journey. Take this special time to savor each moment before baby arrives and add it to your special memories list.
