4 Must Have Mommy Applications for the IPhone

Applications You Must Have If You Have a Newborn

When you have a baby as a mother you start to track things you'd never think to track before. When your child eats, the last time she pooped, what breast you fed on last, growth, milestones and so much more. Keep all this information in one place is important because at your child's well baby visits the doctor will ask questions about those subjects and if it's all in one place you can give accurate answers quickly to the doctor.

In addition to tracking your babies development you'll no doubt have questions about what is normal for your new child. Having applications at your fingertips to answer questions can ease fear and give information to help you better take care of your new child.

To help with keeping track of the important things your new infant does, if you have an iPhone, here are two applications that will help you stay organized.

BabyBix

BabyBix (babybix.com) is an website and application (you can link the two from within the iPhone application) that helps you track all aspects of your newborns life. The application is especially great for tracking feedings and it has a layout that is easy to read and see when you last fed and how much was fed. Also at the end of the day it will display how much was fed total and also calculate a weekly and monthly total for eating. The same applies to diapers (pee and poop) as well as tracking growth and other important information.

The application and website are both easy to use. It's user friendly, so much so that even the most sleep deprived mother can use it during a night time feedings.

In addition to tracking your newborn the application and website have a blog where you can win prizes and also a section for mothers to post and answer questions.

The only thing lacking from the BabyBix application is information on development and what's normal development for a baby. To gain this information you would have to post a question and depend on the answers of fellow mothers.

Overall though BabyBix does everything that a mother needs and organizes it in a manner so that a mother can easily access the information she needs.
