Boy, did I wish I had Pam Socolow’s Family Facts Pregnancy Planner (www.Family-Facts.com) last year when I was expecting. If you consider yourself an uber-organizer, then this is the mother of all planners–and one that won’t make you feel like you’ve got Pregnancy Brain. There’s a month-by-month calendar that gives you the big picture, but that’s pretty standard. The best parts, however, are the tabbed sections: contacts, health and baby planning. Can’t remember if your sonogram was scheduled for this week or next week? Or whether you are rH negative? Now you have just the place to jot it all down. The mini binder-style notebook lets you pull out pages easily for handy references and it fits right in your bag. And if you consider yourself a bit of a Nervous Nelly, there’s plenty of space for you to capture your latest musings, from favorite baby names to advice tidbits from family and friends–and even a place to vent out the unsolicited stuff, too! A place in the back to stash those shower gift receipts completes the package. Now, if only motherhood could be this smooth…
