Baby Tracker • My Baby

I tried a couple of baby tracking apps, and this one does everything I wanted and more! It tracks feedings, sleep, diapers, tummy time, medications, and multiple other activities. I love the built in timer features. The one thing I would suggest changing would be adding the ability to directly edit the number of minutes spent on something rather than just being able to edit the start/stop times. Sometimes it throws off the times if I nurse baby one side, pause for a diaper change, then nurse the other side. The trend charts are very helpful in tracking feeding and sleeping patterns, and it even forecasts baby’s expected sleep patterns. Sometimes it’s more accurate than others, but no one told my kiddo that he’s supposed to follow a predicted nap schedule. ;) I do find it helpful in getting the general idea of when baby will be ready for a nap. I also appreciate the ability to track baby’s growth and compare to the typical growth curve. It’s super helpful that it integrates with my Apple Watch. To top it off, it’s free with no ads! Highly recommend.

This app is a life saver. As a father of a 5 day old, I feel compelled to quickly jump in and give my feedback to new parents. We have the Nanit Pro camera, the Owlet Smart Sock and while they’re able to respectively track sleep and activities, they are severely lacking in My Baby’s ability to do it quickly and provide a means to view trends and timeline, allowing you to compare day to day on your activities. My wife and I were adamant we were missing naps, changings and feedings - but since we were so adamant to note each activity down as it happened, being able to see the trends - all together or individually and compare up to three days at a time provided us the assurance we were consistent, in time and not missing meals (maybe one or two). Just get the app, it’s free and it’s great. The one thing missing - and that I would pay for - is ability to add a parent to collaborate - this is the one feature Nanit does triumph in, allowing both parents to track, note and update activities in real time.

I’ve fdidnt technically try a lot of baby tracking apps, I downloaded a bunch at the hospital and this was the first one that let me open right up and get started without asking for a dime; and this is by far my favorite. It lets me track almost everything about my baby in one place—doctor’s appointments, nursing sessions, pumping, bottles, sleep, bedtimes, Vitamin D and other medications, and so much more. One of my favorite features is that it automatically shows the time between each nursing session, pump, bottle, and sleep, which makes it so much easier to keep track of my baby’s routine without having to do any math myself. I also love that you can add photos to anything you log. Being able to attach pictures of my pumped milk or my baby taking medicine has been incredibly helpful for keeping organized and looking back later. Another huge plus is that the app doesn’t constantly interrupt you with pop-ups asking you to start a free trial or pay for premium features. It’s refreshing to be able to use an app without feeling pressured to spend money every time I open it. My only wish is that it had reminders for things like medications, Vitamin D, feedings, or other scheduled tasks. If reminders were added, this app would be absolutely perfect. Overall, I love this app and would recommend it to any parent. I plan on using it for all of my children because it’s made keeping track of everything so much easier.
