Must-Have App For New Moms

Okay moms, fess' up. How many baby apps do you have on your phone? I especially want to hear from you new moms. I have an 8 month old, and as prepared as I thought I was, I was totally unprepared for those first three months. In my sleep-deprived state, I turned to what I felt comfortable with and was close by--my iPhone. I downloaded app after app--breastfeeding schedule app, calorie counter app, sleep monitoring app (hers not mine), a pee and poop app (again, hers not mine), several information apps, and of course Angry Birds, which helped kill time when I had to pump. Today, I could have eliminated a lot of my baby apps with just one--WebMD Baby.

The WebMD app is like your most organized file cabinet accessible with one hand anywhere you need it to be. How many times in those first month did someone ask you how much your child weighed or how long he or she was and you couldn't remember, even though you were just at the doctor a week ago! Keep track of everything, in one place, on your phone. This includes doctor's visits, vaccine schedules, growth charts, developmental stages, and more. And of course, you get all that great WebMD doctor-approved information as well.  My only question is "What took so long, WebMD?"

How do you track your baby information and schedules?

I don't have a device that I use for apps. This would have been great when my daughter was born 7 years ago. I would get online and chat on other baby websites, but other than that I didn't have any apps. Thanks for sharing.
