Baby no. 3 : Week by Week Pregnancy Journal
We’ve all heard a lot about how we parents tend to be very ‘on’ when we had our FIRST baby.
We recorded every single thing. We took photos. We read books and registered ourselves on baby websites to get weekly updates on baby’s development, etc.
Then, when baby no. 2 came, we’re somehow … a bit more relaxed.
And, we’re generally even more relaxed when it’s baby no. 3.
I guess, with more than one child to handle, we naturally are busier and have less time to do stuff, compared to when we only had one child?
[I shared about ‘Things about having two kids‘ some three years ago, when Vai was less than a year old. Click the link to read the post!]
Anyway.
I tell myself that with baby no. 3, things will naturally be different, BUT I should still do some of the things that I did when I was pregnant with Anya and Vai.
You know, just so that baby no. 3 doesn’t ‘lose out’ much.
Like, I just edited my babycenter.com account and added baby no. 3. Which means, I’ll be getting my weekly updates! *Yay*
And, I’ve also created a week-by-week pregnancy journal page for baby no. 3. Something like what I made for Anya and Vai when they were still in my tummy.
…
I’ll be updating baby no. 3 pregnancy journal every week.

Hi Jennie,
Thank you!! 🙂
Yes, Anya had the more updated photo album 🙂
(but even then, I’ve stopped updating it when she’s about 3yo)
Vai’s photo album only has baby photos (until he’s about 1yo only, I think)
BUT … Vai has more video clips, and photos compared to Anya! 🙂 When Vai was born, our digital camera can record videos, and I didn’t have this when Anya was a baby.
So I guess, in a way, the ‘later kids’ do gain some things too compared to the elder ones 🙂
Wahhh… pregnancy sounds so badddd… i guess not a good time to learn nasi goreng ya ci… sekali nanti cici mual sama aroma onion… =P
Hi Leonny,
Congratulations!!! Welcome to Mom-of-3 “club”… …
Totally agreed with you, as a Mom-of-3, I do realised the no. of photos I have taken for my no.1 as compared to my no. 3 are very different:
– 5 photo albums for my no. 1 (7 yrs old);
– 3 photo ablums for my no. 2 (6 yrs old); &
– “struggling” to complete filling up the 1st photo album for my no.3 (2+ yrs old).
Ha…Life is never fair :o)
