There is so much to stay on top of as a new parent (especially for those of us with multiple kids) when it comes to tracking your baby’s milestones. Here at Sassy Mama we’ve curated a list of top pregnancy, labour and baby tracking apps. These will help you monitor the growth of your bub, from bump to baby.

There’s no rest for the wicked, but as we mamas have found, there’s no rest even for really wonderful mothers either! When you’re running around sleep deprived and covered in curious substances, it can be tough remembering when (and on what side!) to feed the bub, let alone keep track of all those dirty nappies (and nap times).

Luckily, we’ve rounded up our favourite baby tracking apps to chart their development (right from their little heartbeats on a scan to when they are running circles around us!) – something that definitely comes in handy at your next obstetrician or paediatrician visit. In addition to the nitty gritty details about availability and cost, we’ve also enlisted our own team of Sassy Mamas to share how they used the apps to make their first couple of years a little easier. Take a look below!

Pregnancy and Baby Tracker – WTE – Regularly updated by ‘What To Expect’ Medical Review Board

From the parenting juggernaut behind the massive bestseller the What to Expect series, this customisable pregnancy app includes an award-winning due date calculator and an archive of guides to each month of your child’s development. Once your baby arrives, it not only allows you to record your darling’s sleeping, feeding, and necessary diaper change patterns. There’s even medical advice and playtime ideas for when your brain’s just too tired to come up with another game. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, never fear – you’ll get access to the What to Expect forum where you can ask other parents for help, or just rant to them about the two hours of sleep you got last night. 

Sassy Mama says: “I love What-to-Expect’s Baby Tracking App because the interface is clear and simple to use and navigate around. With my mummy-brain, I find the ‘vaccinations’ button super helpful as it keeps me updated with those necessary (but painful) jabs!” – Min, Sassy Mama Singapore
