Love Letters to My Baby: A Guided Journal for Expectant and New Mothers

I agree that this book is absolutely Christian. It's too bad that people have bought it without knowing that, and ended up resenting that aspect of it. I had the opportunity to read through it at the bookstore, so I was well aware of the nature of the book. It is beautiful and celebrates the joy of motherhood. I felt excited writing such special things to my baby, and now that she is born, I love writing even more things to her, knowing more of her personality and the joy she has brought to our home. As someone else stated, the lead-ins really get you thinking, and help you relay more personal feelings than you might normally consider. The poems before each section are special and heart-warming, too. I would recommend this book to any Christian mothers out there who want to make something special for their baby to cherish later in life.

This journal is GREAT! I love the scripture passages that help you focus on the miracle and blessing of having a child. From the day you find out to the months after, this gives your great prompts to record your emotions and tell your baby how much you love her/him.

This book is a wonderful expression of love from a parent to their child. I loved writing these love letters and am sure that my daughter will love to read them in the future. A great gift to give and recieve!

I bought this book without really knowing what to expect. What a great buy it was. I loved writing in it while I was pregnant and the lead in's gave me just enough to get me started. I am looking forward to presenting this to my son when he is older. Also I love to read it from time to time and recall the emotions and thoughts I had about him, my body and upcoming motherhood. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to be in touch with themselves during pregnancy and give their child a wonderful gift in the future.

I received this book for a baby shower gift on June 11, 2000. This book is a treasure that will continue to bless those who read it for years to come. It is filled with scripture and quotes that will make your heart fill with joy. Tears filled my eyes while reading all of the feelings that are felt by those women who are truly thankful for the miracles that grow within them. A gift only God can give. This book allows you to write to your unborn child and tell them all of the feelings you are experiencing. There are several headings to start you out. One of my favorites is the one that starts, "The first person I told I was pregnant"....It allowed me to share the wonderful moment I told my husband we were expecting. My son Gabriel will be able to read how desperately he was wanted someday. I can't wait to share this book with others who are expecting or have newborns.
