FAQ

Pipsqueak Post is a gentle series of daily story emails that follow your baby’s journey through pregnancy. Each story is written like a keepsake: calm, imaginative, and grounded in what’s happening at that stage of development.

Along the way, those stories are collected into a downloadable storybook you can keep forever. It’s designed to be something you look forward to opening each day, and something meaningful to look back on later.

Pipsqueak Post is for expectant parents, partners, and loved ones who want a thoughtful, emotionally safe way to connect with pregnancy day by day.

It’s not a medical service, and it’s not meant to replace advice from your care team. It’s a companion: reflective, comforting, and focused on wonder rather than worry.

Your first email arrives a few minutes after you create your storybook and provide a due date and any other details you wish to share, as long as your account email is also the delivery email.

If you use a different delivery email, you’ll first need to verify it through a confirmation email. You can resend the current day’s email from your dashboard up to three times per day. After that, emails arrive daily at the time you choose in your profile.

Emails are available from 4w0d through 40w0d. If you haven’t delivered by 40w1d, you’ll receive a final email. You can then complete the final page of your storybook whenever you’re ready.

Each email is a short, two-paragraph story written in a warm, storybook voice. They focus on development, connection, and imagination rather than clinical detail, using language that feels calm and human.

The stories are personalized using the details you provide and are thoughtfully generated so they feel fresh and intentional, not generic or repetitive.

The stories are informed by widely accepted pregnancy timelines and developmental milestones, but they are not medical advice.

We’re careful with tone and content: nothing alarmist, nothing graphic, and nothing that should replace conversations with your doctor or midwife. Think of the stories as emotionally accurate rather than clinically precise.

Yes. The stories evolve as pregnancy progresses, reflecting changes in development and experience over time.

This means what you read at 12 weeks feels meaningfully different from what you read at 28 weeks. The arc grows with you, so it never feels like filler.

That’s perfectly okay. Every storybook starts at the beginning.

If you join later, we quietly write the earlier chapters of your book in order, then start your daily emails from the current day. Think of it as opening a book that already has its first pages waiting for you.

Yes! You can add a second recipient email so both parents can receive the daily stories.

The second email must be confirmed, and either recipient can unsubscribe without affecting the other.

We’re deeply aware that pregnancy does not always follow the path we hope for.

If something changes, you can pause or stop emails at any time from your profile. We handle these situations with care and restraint: no assumptions, no forced positivity, and no unwanted messages. You remain in control of what happens next.

You can click “I delivered early” in your profile.

This triggers your final story and stops future emails. You’ll then be able to complete and download your storybook’s final page as a keepsake.

Pregnancy timelines vary, and going past a due date is very common.

If you haven’t delivered by 40 weeks, you’ll receive a final story at 40w1d. You can complete your storybook’s final page whenever it feels right for you.

Small timing differences are completely okay. Pregnancy timelines are estimates, and the stories are written with flexibility in mind.

At the moment, due dates can’t be changed after setup, but being a little ahead or behind won’t break the experience or make the stories feel wrong.

You can check “Twins or more” in your profile.

You’ll be able to use they/them pronouns and choose a shared nickname if you like, such as “the twins.” The stories will reflect that shared journey in a gentle, inclusive way.

No. The size and growth descriptions stay the same.

The stories follow widely accepted pregnancy guidance and timelines, which treat early development and overall progression similarly for singleton and multiple pregnancies. Because growth can vary significantly from one pregnancy to another, size comparisons are meant to be illustrative rather than exact.

For twins or more, the stories focus on shared development and connection rather than measurements, using language that reflects the experience of carrying more than one baby without emphasizing differences in size.

Yes. You can personalize your stories with your baby’s nickname, your name, your partner’s name, the baby’s gender and pronouns, your pronouns, your partner’s pronouns, and up to three personal details that help color the storytelling.

These details are woven naturally into the narrative so the stories feel personal, not templated.

The storybook PDF is a downloadable collection of all your stories, assembled into a single keepsake.

You can download it at any time. It’s designed to be something you save, print, or return to later, long after the emails have ended.

Yes. Always. You never lose access.

Yes. You can add a second recipient email so both parents can receive the daily stories.

If you want someone else to receive the stories instead, update the delivery email in your profile.

No. Never.

You can delete everything from Dashboard → Manage account under Delete everything.

To protect you from accidental clicks, deletion is queued for 7 days and requires typing exactly: Delete my account.

During the 7-day window, you can cancel the request. If you did this in the heat of the moment and want it stopped, email support@pipsqueak-post.com and we’ll help.

No. Never.

Yes. You can unsubscribe at any time, no questions asked.

If you just want a break, you can pause emails from your profile. If someone else is receiving the emails, they can unsubscribe using the link in the email and will never receive another Pipsqueak Post message.

You can email us anytime at support@pipsqueak-post.com.

Please reach out.

Pregnancy can be tender and unpredictable, and if an email ever lands the wrong way or something feels off, we want to know. We take that feedback seriously and respond with care.

You’re not bothering us. You’re exactly who this is for.
