Baby Memory Book vs Baby Record Book - What’s the Difference?


Parents often use the terms baby memory book and baby record book interchangeably, but there are subtle differences that matter when you’re choosing the right keepsake for your family.

  • Baby record book - traditionally focused on statistics and milestones: birth weight, first steps, first words. It’s factual, almost like a logbook.

  • Baby memory book - goes deeper. It includes those same milestones but with more space for stories, photos, reflections, and the emotional details that make your journey unique.

At the end of the day, both capture your baby’s growth - but a memory book gives you the space to tell your family’s story in your own words.

Explore our Bestselling 'Olive' Peachly Baby Memory Book - designed with guided prompts, linen covers, and acid-free pages to capture every milestone with ease.
