Use it all day and night – Baby Feed Timer, breastfeeding Review

I used the older version of the app with a previous baby in 2016. I now use the current 2019 version, which has had some great features added. I appreciate this app and the ability to track so many things in one place: feeding, sleeping, diapering, growth and more. I like that you can start, stop, pause, switch sides, and even combine two feeding records if you recorded them separately. If you forget to start the timer, you can go back and add or edit entries later. It’s nice to choose which items to track so that the unused categories don’t clutter things up. I like the ability to indicate whether a bottle is breastmilk or formula, since some of us use both. The growth chart with WHO data is really helpful when you have a baby with weight gain concerns. Night mode is a great idea—who doesn’t have nighttime feedings, at least for a while? There are a couple of things I’d like to see added: I wish you could select a descending or ascending chronological view. While it can be handy to have the most recent on top, it gets really confusing to go backwards when looking at the timelines and charts, or just trying to look at the progression of events logged. There should be a way to track medications given, other health concerns, and notes separately. Right now I use the “Reminders” category for notes that don’t fit into an available category, but it gets rather broad: doses of medicine, reflux issues, fussiness, rashes, bath time. It would also be nice to have a search function for those times when you need to find info in a note. Thanks for an app that’s part of my life every day!
