A Complete Childhood History: From Pregnancy to 18 Years Old (Pink, Leatherette)

I’ve used these with all three of my kids and I love them. They make me feel so good that I’m recording these things. And the journals make it so easy to do.

I was gifted a Promptly Childhood History journal when I was pregnant with my first. And each pregnancy since, it's been the first thing I buy to prepare for the baby! It is a beautiful tradition I have loved having in my motherhood. Every month/few months, I check in and make additions, put in photos, jot down notes. I absolutely love these journals! They are so special to me.

Really love this journal book for our baby so far! The prompts are simple, and I like that there is space for additional thoughts or can even be for more pictures! I got the sage green color and the picture on the website isn’t accurate but I was hoping it wasn’t, so it worked out good! The actual journal is more of a true sage green. :) Looking forward to filling this out as our baby keeps growing!

Love this journal! It’s a great way to track progress and add little notes but is aesthetic and compact. Just gave to my sister in law for her first little one!

Rebecca O. 5/5 Verified July 19, 2025

My favorite journal! I’ve gotten 1 for each of my kiddos and it’s such a sweet way to log memories and look back at how much baby (& kiddo) has changed! This lavender color is just so sweet.

I love this journal!! I have one for each of my children and are my top baby shower gift. They have well thought out prompts and simple to answer questions that are so fun to look back on. My only wish is to have one more page of “special moments/feelings” for each year. I’ve enjoyed addin my mini Polaroid photos and it’s an easy place to keep ultrasounds. It’s just a great journal! I cannot recommend it enough! (Lavender purple linen not pictured..) I also have the couples love story/ anniversary journal. 👌🏼 love that one too!

Rylee B. 5/5 Verified June 2, 2024

Beautiful book! This is my second one and I love the questions/information asked. I find myself looking through my 3 year old's all of the time.

Rachel M. 5/5 Verified April 3, 2024

I gave this as a gift and the recipient loved it! It’s beautiful!

Amy E. 5/5 Verified October 25, 2023

Love these, wish I had found this when my oldest was a baby!

Natalie F. 5/5 Verified October 4, 2023

We love these journals and have one for each child! So sweet to look back on previous years and answers.

I bought two journals for my twins. They came in the mail quickly, colors are accurate and quite pretty. Nice quality paper and cover. I like a lot of the writing prompts too. My ONLY complaint is that they both got damaged in shipping. They're keepsakes so it's important that they're in as nice of condition as possible to start, as they'll get years of wear and tear. But I decided in the end that it's mostly cosmetic and doesn't affect the contents so I'm trying to ignore the bent corners. The shipping box might need to be reinforced and improved.

This journal is the most efficient and convenient way to document your child’s life. I have it for all my children and it is my go to gift for new parents. Thank you promptly for making something easy in parenthood!

Kelci P. 5/5 Verified April 19, 2023

I love this little journal for my baby. I'll be buying another soon for baby number 2!

Erin R. 5/5 Verified March 22, 2023

I love this so much! I’m not a journal-ER by any means but I loved the idea of this for my kids to look back on one day and I plan to have multiple kiddos so I went ahead and got the bundle so I’d have an extra for the next baby since there’s spot to fill out during pregnancy too!❤️ the prompts are perfect and I love the extra room to write and add photos.😊

Macy P. 5/5 Verified January 23, 2023

Love having a monthly sit-down with my partner as we reflect on the last month of infant hood.

Anna K. 5/5 Verified January 18, 2023

I love the childhood history journal! It is the perfect gift for any mom-to-be, I buy one for each of my friends when they are expecting, and all of them have loved this precious keepsake.

Courtney A. 5/5 Verified January 10, 2023

I’m so excited to start filling this out with information and stories my kids can reference when they’re older! I flipped through and really like the prompts so I plan to buy some for their grandparents, too

Kristina F. 5/5 Verified November 25, 2022

I love the prompts and the color of the journal.

Jacey S. 5/5 Verified November 21, 2022

Great journals! I am so thrilled to use these with my first, and definitely will give this as a gift in the future

Sydney S. 5/5 Verified November 18, 2022

I purchased these books to document the important moments of my kids life so I don't forget. I really enjoy the prompted questions except the one I got for my son. He's 2.5 so filling out those details of the months of his first year of life are proving to be quite difficult.

Samantha F. 5/5 Verified November 13, 2022

Really like this baby book! A favorite feature to me is how it looks like more of a normal book, not a traditional baby book. Excellent quality. It does have a lot of place to record pregnancy information for each trimester, so if you buy, don’t make the mistake I did and wait until after the birth. It’s hard then to go back and recount pregnancy details. Another neat feature is that it goes all the way to 18 years old. Beautiful keepsake for your child!

Amanda M. 4/5 Verified October 22, 2022

So easy to fill out when your world has been turned around with a new addition. I loved this journal so much I bought one for my closest friends so they could build these memories for their babies too.

Nikki M. 4/5 Verified October 9, 2022

I can’t get enough of my autobiography! I love looking back at my childhood I can’t wait to show this to my kids one day ❤️

Ava K. 5/5 Verified September 14, 2022

Ample number of pages and easy to use. Highly recommend

Jeany A. 5/5 Verified August 17, 2022

So excited to keep track of all the sweet memories of my little ones life. I love that the questions are all laid out already and the journal itself is beautiful!

Veronica E. 5/5 Verified July 10, 2022

I love having a special little place to put treasured drawings and handwriting and prompts to help me when I feel like I don't know what to write!

Claire H. 5/5 Verified June 27, 2022

I have never wrote in a journal before but have heard so many good things about these. My little girl is almost two and I have wrote nothing in her baby book I bought. I took a chance and ordered the two pack child history since I have another on his way now. I am so glad I did I am amazed and how much I’ve caught up on already. Their prompts make it so easy. And make it simple to answer and then space at the end of each section if you want to add more details. I love the layout and love that I am getting things documented before they are forgotten. I wish I got this when I first got pregnant, but better late than never. These are amazing and worth the hype.

Karli M. 5/5 Verified June 2, 2022

These journals are exactly what I was looking for. I have one for each of my kids. Not only are they pretty to look at, they also are well organized and have great questions for each stage of life. There is also a lot of space to journal or add your own notes for each age.

Jill D. 5/5 Verified May 21, 2022

I’m not a mom yet but I knew I had to get this journal. Reading these prompts makes me so excited for when I do become a mom. Makes me think of all the memories I’m going to make with my future children! ❤️

Ava K. 5/5 Verified May 10, 2022

I love the questions this journal asks! I’m always saying I need to write down some of the things my kids say and now I have the perfect place to write it all down. I just wish I had found these when my oldest was a baby-I’m doing my best to backfill it. You don’t think you’ll forget-but you do and this is a great way to write all those funny, quirky, crazy things my kids have done.

Natalie F. 5/5 Verified April 17, 2022

This is such a beautiful way to capture a snippet of your child’s life. There are simple prompts that don’t take too much time to fill in. Absolutely wonderful gift!

Emily A. 5/5 Verified April 11, 2022

This is my second journal and I love them so much! I have a dusty rose for my currently 3 year old daughter and now have this gorgeous navy journal for my currently 3 month old son <3 These are so perfect! I wish somebody would've told me about them when I was pregnant with my daughter! I recommend this amazing company and their journals!

Kristen P. 5/5 Verified February 27, 2022

This is my second childhood journal purchase and unfortunately the yellow one came with small black defects on the front and back cover. Thankfully, the team was prompt in responding to my request for a return and I quickly received confirmation of the refund. Will be purchasing again.

Callie L. 4/5 Verified February 22, 2022

This is a wonderfully thorough as well as concise journal! Promptly makes jotting down milestones and addressing prompts easy for any lifestyle.

Erin D. 4/5 Verified February 22, 2022

I love it! This is such a sweet simple way to remember the little things .

Alanna D. 5/5 Verified February 22, 2022

I bought the journal as a gift and it’s a great journal. The only issue is that it arrived a bit damaged.

Darla P. 4/5 Verified February 16, 2022

Got this journal for my friend for her first baby! It is so beautiful I wish someone would have gifted this to me as a present with my children! I will probably be purchasing 3 of them to write in for my children!

Christine W. 5/5 Verified December 6, 2021

I was gifted this when I was pregnant with my first baby. This is easily my favorite monthly ritual- filling in her monthly journal entries. It is a treasure in our home that I cherish the most out of any other baby gifts we were given. It is my go to purchase now for mama-to-be’s. I love the color choices, the size and the beauty it brings into our home & life!

Jenna S. 5/5 September 19, 2021

Where do I even begin! I HATED journaling before promptly. I felt like I never knew what to write, what would be important for remembering, and I would end up writing 1-2 days and then throwing out the journal cause it was useless! Now everything has a place! Every detail is recorded so neatly and the prompts help me dig deep in my answers! Also, I love the child connection journal. Helps me know what questions to ask my kids and how to get mentally involved in their life. Makes us grow so much closer! And Not to mention the physical journals themselves are STUNNING. Such high quality and beautiful covers. I now purchase these for gifts for all my new mom friends, and newlyweds.

Kiersten D. 5/5 August 7, 2021

LOVING this journal. We welcomed baby number seven two weeks ago and I wanted something I could document their growth at every stage that would have a timeless look instead of the typical baby book. We love it so much we are purchasing 6 more to have one place for each of our children’s memories and pictures of their childhood. Highly recommend and this will be a baby gift I purchase for friends going forward.
