Find a Week-by-Week Pregnancy Calendar
Pregnancy calendars have been around for ages. The way they are used and the means may vary, but the purpose doesn't. One thing stays the same - pregnancy has been and always will be 40 weeks of a wonderful experience worth keeping track of.
Gone are the days of keeping an old-fashioned pregnancy calendar attached to the fridge with a magnet. With modern technology, choices for keeping track of pregnancy details are numerous. But then again, those wanting to stay old fashioned, still have that choice.
Smart Phone Pregnancy Calendar Apps
Various smart phones offer pregnancy calendars to keep track of your pregnancy. Android phone offers an app called The Baby Bump. This app comes complete with week-by-week fetal development and a tracker for mother's weight and measurements. Tracking the baby’s progress, in addition to the mothers, is an added feature of this app. The Iphone app is called Ipregnancy and comes complete with a baby name list and due date calculator.
Internet Pregnancy Calendar Option
An online search will bring up the option of many pregnancy calendars. Some simply track weight and week of pregnancy while others are more advanced, explaining baby development as well as mom's growth. Most of the online versions allow for personalization of the calendars. Social networks have even gotten on the bandwagon, offering pregnancy calendars that do everything from predict due dates to offer recipes. If you are particularly computer savvy, download a widget for your desktop or website that offers pregnancy tracking capabilities.
New and Improved Physical Calendars
Downloading a calendar is one option. Many Internet sites have downloadable calendars with different options. After downloading, the calendar can be printed and hung on a fridge with a magnet, if old fashioned is your desire. Some simply track what occurs each week during pregnancy while others allow for important information such as baby's current suspected weight and length. Some even offer the option of pasting an ultrasound picture into the calendar. Purchasing one at a bookstore is another option. Simply visit the calendar section and several pregnancy calendars are available for purchase.
Some things remain the same. A full term pregnancy still takes 40 weeks to term; so do not forget to track your progress. Not only does a pregnancy calendar help to pass the time, it gives parents something to look back on and to remember the days before junior arrived!
