We share our fave baby tracking apps so you can monitor and track breastfeeding, bathtime, diaper changes and more to make your new parenting journey a bit easier
Need a baby tracking app to help with monitoring your pregnancy or baby once they are born? We round up our fave pregnancy apps that can show how your baby is developing week by week plus there are such fun features like journaling and mood tracking. Once your baby is born when you’re running around sleep-deprived, it can be tough remembering when (and on what side!) to feed the bubs, let alone keep track of all those dirty nappies (and naptimes). Luckily, we’ve rounded up our favourite baby tracking apps to help you stay afloat with your tot’s day to day routine and chart their development – something that definitely comes in handy for your next paediatrician visit.
Here are all the nitty-gritty details about each app so you can choose one that’s right for you!
1. The Wonder Weeks
The Wonder Weeks is one of the best baby apps to track your baby’s developmental milestones so that you can help your baby through this fussy stage of a leap in their mental development. If you are wondering if your baby’s night waking is a sleep regression, teething or are they entering another developmental leap, then this is the baby tracking app for you!

2. Baby Tracker by WhatToExpect
What to Expect apps guide you through every phase of your parenting journey, from preconception to pregnancy to the first years of your child’s life. This customisable baby tracking app not only allows you to record your baby’s sleeping, feeding and necessary diaper change patterns, but also has a handy list of recommended vaccinations. If you’ve got more than one child, you can add their profiles to your account as well! The tracker goes beyond what it says on the tin and even has an archive of guides to each month of your child’s development, medical advice and even 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.

3. Sprout
Sprout is renowned for its physician-recommended pregnancy app and baby app with a number of awards (Apple named it their ‘Essential App for Parents’!).

4. Baby Feed Timer
Recommended by NHS midwives in the UK, this baby app was designed by- and for- breastfeeding moms to keep track of feedings. The Baby Feed Timer reminds you what side to start on, when you’re due for the next feed, and much more. We love the giant buttons that are easy to tap with one hand when you’ve got a squirming hungry baby in the other. It also syncs up with other phones so your partner can know when to feed your baby if you are out. Also keeps track of bottle feedings, pumping sessions, diaper changes, and sleep timings, with in-depth charts and analysis.

It even has its own in-app messaging tool! Baby Connect can turn your updates into easily digestible graphs and charts, as well as allow you to keep track of any trends you or your doctor should be interested in. You’ll even be able to make a profile for your child with relevant information about their allergies, blood type and birthday – everything’s all in one place!

6. Baby Daybook
Baby Daybook is a means of recording your newborn’s every last move – from diaper changes to breastfeeding sessions with the unique option of adding in crucial notes to record irregularities. For mamas with twins or triplets, Baby Daybook’s got you covered with multiple baby profiles that you can sync up with your husband or helper’s accounts so that they know exactly what’s going on every second of the day. With customisable app colours, the team behind Baby Daybook has even been thoughtful enough to develop a darker interface so you don’t wake up your little with a blast of light during their nighttime feedings.

8. Feed Baby
It’s easy to forget things when you’re operating on infant-oriented sleep, but with Feed Baby at least you can monitor your baby’s meal times, baths, and bottle feeds. This tracker creates colourful timelines, graphs and reports based around your tot’s eating habits, even when they start on solid foods. With customisable themes in powder Vintage Pink, periwinkle Baby Blue or the more solemn Dark Knight, you and your hubby will be able to sync up your data between devices to make sure you both know exactly what’s going on wherever you are.
