Pregnancy, Explained — A Philippines Companion

You see two lines, and suddenly you have a hundred questions.

Which OB should you choose? When do you tell people? What tests will you need? What should you actually buy? How much should you prepare for delivery? And why has your tita already decided it's a boy?

Pregnancy, Explained is a practical pregnancy companion made specifically for expecting parents in the Philippines — part journal, part planner, and part place to keep track of everything you don't want scattered across screenshots, notes apps, hospital envelopes, and group chats.

It takes you from those first positive lines through all three trimesters, helping you understand what's coming, prepare for appointments and decisions, and keep the important details of your pregnancy in one place.

Made for pregnancy in the Philippines

A lot of pregnancy information online assumes you're somewhere else. This journal doesn't.

You'll find pages that make sense for pregnancy here — including choosing an OB and hospital, keeping track of prenatal visits and tests, preparing for delivery expenses, understanding maternity leave, planning your hospital bag, and figuring out what baby things are actually worth buying.

Inside the journal

• Pregnancy at a glance — important dates, information, contacts, and details you’ll want within easy reach
• OB visits and prenatal care — space for appointments, questions, instructions, tests, and results
• Trimester guides — practical information and prompts for each stage of pregnancy
• Weekly pregnancy pages — record how you're feeling, what's changing, and what you want to remember
• Expenses and preparation — organize expected costs and prepare for delivery
• Baby shopping — think through what to buy, borrow, or skip instead of buying everything on every checklist
• Birth planning — work through your preferences and the questions you may want to discuss with your doctor
• Hospital bag — plan what you'll need for yourself, your baby, and your companion
• Maternity leave and practical planning — because preparing for a baby involves more than choosing a name

Not just a pregnancy journal.

There are pages for memories, milestones, and the things you'll want to look back on. But Pregnancy, Explained is also meant to be used — brought to appointments, written in, checked, updated, and referred to throughout your pregnancy.

Because there's already enough to keep in your head.

For first-time moms who don't know where to begin. For expecting parents who like having everything organized. For anyone tired of keeping important pregnancy information in five different places.

And for the friend, sister, daughter, colleague, or partner who just announced she's pregnant — and you'd rather give her something she'll actually use.
