Okay, so I'm in the process of launching a customized book publishing company called The Dragonfly Press (The Dragonfly Press home page), and one of our products is a pregnancy journal. Right now, it's set up so that moms can send in photos and complete a simple form, and we'll print a personalized hardcover book that follows her through her pregnancy, complete with photos of mom- and dad-to-be and other family/friends (basically whoever the parents-to-be want to include). I'm trying to conduct a little market research to make sure I'm offering products that people will find valuable. Would you mind answering a few questions?

1) Would you be interested in the above-mentioned book?
2) Why or why not?
3) Would you be interested in a book that follows a fill-in-the-blank, journal-type format with blank pages for your own notes and photos?
4) Why or why not?
5) Did you keep a pregnancy journal?
6) If so, where did you get it?
7) If you didn't, why not?

Thanks so much for reading my post and answering my questions!

First of all- yay for your business taking off!

1) Would you be interested in the above-mentioned book? Yes
2) Why or why not? I think it's a great idea and something I could easily keep up with (especially if you could email reminders to fill things in) and it would be great to have something that was personalized. I plan to pass my journals onto my girls when they have their first kids
3) Would you be interested in a book that follows a fill-in-the-blank, journal-type format with blank pages for your own notes and photos? Yes. This is the kind of journal I kept Except it didn't have anywhere to put pictures. Just a pocket in the back
4) Why or why not? See above
5) Did you keep a pregnancy journal? Yes: The Pregnancy Journal
6) If so, where did you get it? Borders for Maya, Alibris for Zoe. I've also bought it for friends.
7) If you didn't, why not?
