Very disappointing
By Heidi a new mother from Burnsville, MN on 12/11/2009
Cons:
Cheap, Flimsy, Poor Design
Describe Yourself:
First Time Parent
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Adopte Shoppe And Then There Was Me - Baby Keepsake Book for Single Parents & Alternative Families:

We were very excited from the description but very disappointed when the book arrived. The paper is just basic flimsy printer paper which will definitely not last and many of the pages were just plain boring. For example the family tree was just several boxes (which were too small to actually put names in) and then just lines below. So many baby books are just beautiful and it was really depressing to finally find one that would work for two mothers with a s donor but was so poor in quality. We have returned the book.

Comments about Adopte Shoppe And Then There Was Me - Baby Keepsake Book for Single Parents & Alternative Families:

This is such a great book for the single parent or same sex couple. It allows you to add or delete pages that are important or not to your family. Traditional baby books that have a mom and a dad for baby would have a lot of blank spaces where this one you can only include the pages relevant so that the child gets a full picture of his/her family without wondering why all the blank spaces.
Thank you!!!!

Comments about Adopte Shoppe And Then There Was Me - Baby Keepsake Book for Single Parents & Alternative Families:

This is the best baby book for single parent families that I found. The pages are nicely done and good quality. I like that there is plenty of blank space so I can write in whatever I want. I wish it had more pockets to store keepsakes. The front cover is a little to bland, I'm still trying to figure out how to customize it, but it is durable it won't tear with age.

Comments about Adopte Shoppe And Then There Was Me - Baby Keepsake Book for Single Parents & Alternative Families:

We are a lesbian couple expecting a new addition to our family. I have 2 older children and my partner is pregnant. We wanted a baby book that is friendly for our family, which this book is, however I feel that the quality of this product was not worth the high price that we paid. It will serve our purpose though.

Comments about Adopte Shoppe And Then There Was Me - Baby Keepsake Book for Single Parents & Alternative Families:

I am using the baby memory book to document all memories and information that we may forget over time when life is so busy and hectic everyday. This book is perfect for new gay parents or single parent as majority of baby memory book has "mom" and "dad" portions. What if there's no mother or father in the picture? or two fathers? or two mothers?
This book only is provided with one design - needs to be more creative with book cover - maybe two or three different kind of design - for baby boy and baby girl.
