Baby Tracker • My Baby

This app is absolutely incredible. I just had a baby this week and realized with the exhaustion I could barely remember when I pumped, when she fed, how much she had, and what her resulting diapers were like. I wanted to use an app and was frustrated that they all had in-app purchases, but this one is FREE and it's so much better than I could have expected!! I was worried a free app would be outdated or clunky but this is totally up to date, and the best part is that I can sync it with my husband's app and we can both log everything in our little girl's "journal" so the other one can see it. I'm sure it will be incredibly useful when we get her to the pediatrician! Bottom line, this app is incredible especially in the newborn trenches and I'm beyond grateful that we don’t have to pay for it!

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 was initially resistant to using a tracking app because I thought it would increase my overall stress burden. The interface is easy to use and chart things with a quick touch. I particularly like the Timer function (especially for sleeping!) and the Journal function for quickly eyeballing specific daily data (how many naps, how many diapers). It would be nice if there was a calculator function that would automatically tally the data (total hours slept in a day for example). I have not tried any other apps, so I don’t have anything to compare it to but this works well for my needs.
