Nursing Timer Tracker for Android
I downloaded this on a whim before i gave birth thinking that maybe I'd use it. I tried it out once i got my newborn and it has been absolutely a life saver. I can keep track of everything i need and i don't have to work hard at all. So convenient and easy to use! Love it! I haven't used any other apps like this so i can't compare but this is perfect so i don't need to use anything else. A tip for other new moms: i use the sleep tracker to track my sleep rather than the baby's!
This app came in very handy. I just had my 2nd child after a 7 year gap and didn't want to keep a notebook like I did with my older child. I found this app with its easy to use interface. I was able to keep track of feedings and which breast I left off on. There are also ways to track pumping amounts, bottle feedings (formula or breast milk), diaper changes, and sleeping times. I started to keep track of the last 2 but found it too much of an effort on my part, not the fault of the app (very easy to use).
Intuitive design which lets you quickly add activity however if you really need to put the exact time it will take you 5 steps or movements to change it. Also there is already an option to use AM/PM there should no longer be a military time its a lot of scrolling. The load time of the app also takes like 2-3 seconds which is slow if you want to immediately set activity.
I really like this app. Its user friendly and keeps me organized with my feedings. That is really will I use it for, but I do love that you can also track diapers and sleep. I will probably start tracking sleep once my daughter hits 3 or 4 months and starts getting into a more concrete routine. My only complaint is that the time is only in military format. I wish we could use normal time and just have an option to choose AM OR PM.
I think this app is pretty great. Although it's the first of its kind I've used. Two things I would tweak. One: I'd like to mark a diaper change while in the feeding timer. (Ex. I change her diaper in between breasts, while the timer is paused.) Two: it'd be nice to have an alarm... so the app could notify me 20 min before the next feeding, or something like that.
I was using another app with no problems, then my son switched between one breast and both breasts at a feeding. My current app couldnt record double feedings so I searched for this feature and couldn't find it....until I found this app!! I know it's probably a feature that most dont think about but for me it made a big difference. Simple layout and very easy to use. I love that I can change the data/time if I make a mistake. Love it
I love the simplicity. It seems like other apps have so many features that I don't really need. This one is easy and quick to record feedings and outputs. One recommendation I have is that you add an option to add a note to recorded feedings and diaper changes. That would allow for tracking details and still keep the app simple!
I'm trying to pump after feedings to increase my supply as I'm not getting enough right now so when I go to add the pumping information, it doesn't allow you to add both sides at same time. I have a double breast pump and have seen this feature on a couple other apps I was checking out. Hope this can be updated as it would be more useful feature to be able to add both sides at same time vs timing the pump one side at a time.
I use this app more than Facebook right now! This app has a very organized layout and is very easy to use. I can keep track of everything that is important with our new baby and I am excited that I'll be able to track the milk I pump once I return to work. My only disappointment is that I didn't have this with our other two kids. I nurse, pump, and track my baby's sleep patterns with this app and I highly recommend it!
Tracks the basics so you aren't getting distracted or overwhelmed by things that you don't need to worry about. Helped me keep my sanity and stay as organized as possible by tracking feedings and which side I started with, etc. Also, helped establish patterns so that I knew what my baby needed, but also so I could easily notice when things began to change, as they do frequently with newborns.
The one and only thing I would change is the pumping measurements. I don't want to round how much I pumped. Love keeping track of diapers, which side he eats off of and being able to get into a routine. The ads are kind of annoying, but most apps have them.
Great functions, just wish there was a place to add notes. Also wish there was an easy way to delete multiple previous entries. App seemed to slow down, so I deleted previous weeks info, but had to go to each entry individually. Seems to drain my battery if I leave the app open.
I am a first time mom to a now ten week old and keeping track of diapers, breastfeedings and sleep was becoming cumbersome. I started with a notebook a few weeks ago, but this app is brillant. Now i have something neat and legible for her next appointment. This app is so simple to use!
I love the features of this app. Great for tracking feedings and diapers these first 10 days with our newborn. Would rate 4 or 5 stars if it would allow my phone to go to "sleep" after a few minutes of inactivity. Unfortunate battery drain on my Moto X when I leave the timer open during a feeding. If I remember to shut my screen off manually it's better. Just wish it could do that itself.
Novice breastfeeder and first time mom here, and this app has made life so much easier- my little one and I live and breathe by it. Couldn't be doing as well as we are without it. Much more convenient than keeping a written log.
this app is awesome, I love being able to track my baby's life so I can try to understand her needs better. Only thing to improve it would be a widget for the lock screen; then I'd give it 6 stars!
Great app. Don't use diaper but would be lost without other options. Only thing I would change is having option to feed and pump at same time. Normally I just put data in after I'm feeding but would be nice to be able to have both working at the same time.
My baby only nurses from one side per feeding. This app has helped me to remember which side she had last. I don't use it for any of the other features but I see how it could be very helpful.
This app has been invaluable to this first time mom and dad. Staying aware of just how much your newborn is eating is so important for facilitating weight gain. Only small gripe is that when I need to input pumped and bottle-fed portions, I can only do so in increments of 10ml. I wish there were increments of 5ml for these early stages!
My son is a month old and apparently I really suck at being his mom because I just couldn't figure out the way to stop him from crying. This app was a good way to get a clue of his routine to help me guess what he needs next. I've been managing to get him to bed by 7pm for the past week and naturally waking him up by 7:30 am, plus less fuss in between.
Easy to use and keep track of feeds, etc. Good that you can pause partway through and switch from one side to another easily. Would be better if back button on phone went back one screen rather than exiting app. Also nap times could be clearer and show from and to, rather than just duration and time from start of previous nap
I liked the simplicity of this app but I wish there was one more feature: when I don't have my phone during a feeding I wish the app would allow me to add in the feeding time manually. Otherwise it looks like one breast is being nursed twice with a large gap of time in between.
I have been using this for 2 weeks now and it's been fantastic. My only "disappointment" is not having a comments section to help track change in patterns or bm's. Love the graphics too!
Perfect, let's me know how long in between feedings, how long she fed for and dirty diapers. Also love the pumping and bottle feed as well. The only draw back is when double pumping you can't put what each breast puts out at the same time so having to do more to track what's pumped out.
Love this app! I keep track of when my baby feeds, when I pump and nappy changes. As a suggestion, bottle feed is not just formula...I pump and then feed him with the bottle some times. EDIT: You can actually choose pump or formula when bottle feeding the baby, so my bad. Love the app
Needs a login system so your spouse can access information from his phone. Needs a both breast option for pumping. Needs a way to go back and insert a time you did something so it's accurate if you forgot to insert instantly. It also needs a way to insert a feeding the while you are pumping. Very disappointed with the app but it's better than nothing.
I was obsessively using the chart they gave me in the hospital, but let's face it a piece of paper and a pen was a pain the neck to have with me at all times. This app is convenient and easy to use! I'm glad I found it.
First time parents and this app is extremely helpful. Only thing I wish it had was the option for my app and my wife's app to save to the same account because some times we use my phone and some times we use hers.
I don't need frills and charts. This is exactly what I was looking for, a basic tracking app. I especially love seeing how long it's been between feedings. I'm not a fan of how easily it is to change which side they are eating on because I've bumped it when they haven't switched and then my time on that other side is lost unless I want to save that they switched. It's just a little annoying when it happens. It asks you to rate it frequently. I've already rated it. It's annoying to constantly be rating it again.
This app is amazing... It helps me keep track of everything! From Naptimes, to poopy diapers and whether I bottle-fed, breastfed and when/how much I pumped.... I ABSOLUTELY recommend this app to any new mother.... THE ONLY bad thing I have to say is that 5$ is the cost to remove ads.... Worth it if your eye twitches at the sight of any ad, but ultimately ENTIRELY too much to pay for ad-removal. I would have paid for ad removal, if it wasn't so expensive (I would say I'd prefer to pay 2, maybe 2.50....)
I can't say enough great things about this app. It's so much easier than trying to remember when you started feeding and for how long. And I love that you can keep track of everything in just one app including dirty diapers and pumping.
Couldn't feed without it. It tells you everything you need to know to keep up with the feeds and keep a thorough control of what you've done. The only thing missing is maybe an option to enter a feed manually. Definitely recommend this app though.
Great way of monitoring how long and how often baby feeds. I also like how you can add bottles too. My only criticism is that it tells you how long ago you started a feed, rather than when it finished.
Best App!!!!!! I highly recommend this app for nursing moms. We had a little trouble with my daughter pooping. They were always asking how often she peed and pooped it was so easy for me to look up on the app and have an answer for them! Great app again highly recommend it!
I didn't have this with my first child, but got it for my second, and it's so helpful! Helps me keep track of what side I'm on when I nurse or pump, which I desperately need being so sleep deprived. I would recommend to any new mom.
It helps so much with timing her feedings and keeping track of diaper changes. I do wish the pump section allowed for more precise measurements and the diaper section had a note area so can track if having poop/pee changes
When you just have a baby you have to keep track of so many things with hardly any sleep. Its ridiculous! This app makes your life so much easier by keeping track of so many things for you ❤
It does exactly what it's supposed to! The home screen has everything right on it so when you start nursing you don't have to search for the timer, great app over all.
At night I'm just so tired I can't remember which side my baby nursed last. This app takes the guesswork out and let you know exactly how much the baby is getting, how many diapers they've been through and everything! Love it!

I love this app. It's so easy to use and so helpful. I love that you can pause the timer while you're feeding if you have to burp the baby or on a rare occasion change a diaper. It's so nice to be able to look at my phone and know either it's only been an hour since she ate or it's been 2 1/2, I should plan on feeding her soon. Keeping track of all the times and side you're on on top of everything else as a new mom is just silly. This keeps track of those for you and leaves you to think about other things.
