Be well prepared for your pregnancy through NONA's Motherhood Journal
Joe all the pregnant ladies! Highly recommended for you: the Motherhood Journal van NONA-Amsterdam. The idea of keeping a journal is of course already very old. After all: never change a winning team. For example, we had 'The Book of Me' at home, which my mother obviously kept very poorly (because printing has always been a thing of the past). But what she crooked and kept is something I cherish to this day. So yes, it is really special and very fun, one journal keep track of your little one's first moments. In your belly and beyond.
Now the Book of Me was not that attractive (we are talking 1981); Fortunately, that is different in 2022! Now we have NONA. In the beautiful, soft leather bound journal you will find a handy checklist with everything you need to get before the baby is born. No no, don't be alarmed: the list is short shorter shortest, because your mini really doesn't need much more than some milk and a lot of love in those first weeks (months). The makers of NONA also know this and that is why they mention what you actually want to have in your home and what is simply very useful. Nice to give to yourself, and also the ideal maternity gift at the baby shower.
Handy, because let's be honest – you often have no idea about the first child. There is also plenty of room for all kinds of notes, ideas and scribbles (it's also nice to write down all the names here that didn't work out, because even though you may think you'll never forget them, you definitely will). Place it next to your bed: the Journal is so beautiful that you actually want to have it next to your bed anyway. Pregnant or not. The leather cover and the natural tones give the book a kind of classic look, which makes it so timeless.
NONA was founded by two friends who missed an inspiring place where you can express all your thoughts, feelings and notes. Not only for the period of your pregnancy and in the first year after the birth of the baby, but for as long as you want. Until you decide that the story is complete and the book can be closed. This way you can keep everything you have collected over those years bundled.
Create a Motherhood Journal so, made for the journey called motherhood. A beautiful leather cover in three natural colors, containing four inserts: a fill-in booklet, a notebook, a scrapbook and a checklist.
We already mentioned it a bit, but our enthusiasm really comes from small, thoughtful things that the ladies of NONA have thought about. So are all inserts endlessly replaceable and replenishable, so that your booklet really lasts a lifetime. A sustainable product. And one of the most beautiful, sensible gifts you can give to a (soon to be) mother can give.
When fill-in booklet there are questions such as: how did I find out I was pregnant, the first person I told, the first clothes I bought, the first movement I felt... but also how do I feel - and so on. For example, there is a chapter that Tales & Thoughts is called. Here you zoom in on the period from pregnancy to the first year, on the story you tell your child about your own life. You also look back at the way you experienced your pregnancy, the name, the birth and the first moments with your child, including the growth and developments.
And of course there are the ones not to be missed no brainers: the birth (the weight, eye and hair color, the first photo and more). And all the steps and jumps that come with being one, two, three, etc. months old, from weight and height to all the new ones skills.
The Journal concludes with separate pages that your grandparents, uncles/aunts, parents, friends, etc. can fill in for you with individual notes. Enjoy!
