Do you have a good recommendation for a 0-5 year baby book?

Just that really. Smile

I've got this one for DS1, which I really like as it's not fluffy bunnies and cutsie. My DM gave it to me but, apart from not realising how bloody expensive it is Blush, I'd quite like a different one for DS2 when he arrives in a few weeks. I liked the look of the Hungry Catterpillar one, but it's only birth to 12 months and I don't want DS2 to feel short-changed since I'm keeping a five year one on his big brother!

Thanks in advance! Smile

Thanks Galvanised Smile I think DM put all her eggs in one basket with DS1 as she thought I was only going to have one, so splashed out.

Hatetidyingthehouse The only Miriam Stoppard baby books I could find were parenting manual arrangements. Does she do a memory type book that you're aware of?

We've got www.amazon.co.uk/Baby-Record-Book-Shirley-Hughes/dp/1782300023/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1405290817&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=alfie+baby+shirley+hughes this one for DD (although she's now two and we only got it a few months ago so may have to slightly make up some of the early stuff we don't remember). I love Alfie and so does she and I think it's a lovely example of a record/memory book (and also nicely priced!)

We have this. We were given a cutie one but I didn't really like it, then hd saw this and as it was the first thing he wanted to buy for the new baby we splashed out.

It's lovely

Thanks Katy. That's the one DS has, just with a different cover - they're the same inside. That was my back up plan so they'd at least look slightly different on the outside.

Matriarchal That's a nice one! DS loves Archie (I have to shout Archie Gets in First over an anxiously soaring repetition of, 'Oh no! Keys!...Oh NO! KEYS!...OH NO! KEYS MUMMY!' Grin). Unfortunately, I'd ordered one just before you posted, but I'll keep the Shirley Hughes one in mind if I don't like it.
