Disappointed
This app started out okay. It’s nice to be able to track what your baby looks like. I mainly joined this app for the community discussion boards, but have become extremely disappointed with the bias of the moderators. Only one side is allowed to be heard. If you give a pro-life stance, be prepared to have your comments taken down. If you give a pro-adoption stance, be prepared to have your comments taken down. If you bring up religion, or even say you are praying for someone, be prepared to have you comments taken down. Most recently, if you give a pro-home school stance, be prepared to have your comments taken down. The bias has escalated, it is not subtle. Many women have complained. The moderators are well aware at this point. If you respectfully and kindly express an opinion they deem as problematic, you will be censored. Meanwhile, the other side is permitted to be objectively rude and even post personal attacks/insults in response other users, as long as it fits a certain narrative. I’m not usually one to complain, but the bias is discouraging to many on the app, and it is misleading to women who may genuinely be looking for different perspectives.

Disgusting App - DO NOT DOWNLOAD
Funny that they’ll very quickly find and delete your comment that they decide violates their terms and conditions but continue to allow the same women to harass and gang up on anyone who dares to express a slightly different opinion. I genuinely believe WTE is paying people to bully posters who do not believe in the mainstream narrative. I’ve been called an idiot, stupid, a lunatic, amongst a whole host of other insults just for stating an opinion and it’s always by the same people. These comments never seem to get deleted unless they are reported. But as soon as I point this fact out, my comment disappears with no explanation.
The fact that they’re preying on the emotions of pregnant women should be enough to have everyone stay off of this app. One of the “regulars” went out of her way to find a post another mother made almost a year ago about her anxiety behind the current Russia/Ukraine situation and how it was freaking her out, just to bring up a “nuclear threat” that was made against the US. It was so weird and inappropriate. If you know someone is terrified why would you go out of your way to remind them or give them more reasons to be upset? It was disgusting. And once again, when I pointed this out, my comment was deleted with no reason why. They’re trying to trauma bond with you. If you care about your mental health, STAY OFF OF THIS APP!

Love this app
I’ve got videos to watch , tips, sales recommendation for baby products, it’s like th app knows something is about to happen with my baby I when read what the has to say and days later I’m going through the situation and It click to me I read this on the app a feed days ago. Sometimes I have concerns or would to expect and the app help with the information it’s giving with paragraphs or videos and it’s the things that people won’t tell you or don’t remember to tell knew moms and the app would get you ready for it. I’ve learn things that my mom who has six kids never told me while she was helping me prepare for my daughter or my sister who has 3 kids never told me they tell you all of the basic information and I’m glad I came across this app . I’ve been using this app for both my kids oldest going to be 3 soon and still using it

I love it!
Awesome app to have whilst tracking down an exciting journey towards expecting a new bundle of joy😍 Although some of the products recommended are US-based, I just find similar ones here in NZ if I can. Otherwise the tips and updates of what's happening with little bubba on the way are awesome and always takes me another exciting step forward towards meeting our expected little one🥰 highly recommend this app especially for any first-time mamas!

Wow 🤩- thank you for leaving such a detailed review, Rayjo_22! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the app. We appreciate the love. 💜
Perfect for so many reasons
This app is perfect for so many reasons. It provides a space for you to talk to other mothers on many subjects. Don’t see a thread that pertains to you? Start one. Endless support. From the day you find out your pregnant & download this app, you’ll love it. You get to track weekly what your baby is doing and how they are growing inside of your stomach, after the baby is born, this app continues to give you information and milestones at each age. I noticed that checking this app has put my mind at ease at times I felt confused & overwhelmed. There is so much knowledge wrapped up in this app, especially for a first time mom. I highly recommend. My baby is 14 months & I still check this app at least weekly. My favorite pregnancy tracking app & educational app for me about my baby.

Loveeeeee this!!
This is my first pregnancy and I absolutely adore this app! I love checking every week to see how much my baby has grown, from a large strawberry to a lime! It’s beautiful to see. This app gives you daily advise on what to expect and how to better yourself for you and your baby. It shows you common symptoms from different mothers. It recommends different website and stores for baby clothes, maternity clothes, baby food, what you need for the nursery and a diet for a healthy pregnancy. I love the videos you get to see every week on how much your baby has grown. Not to mention it makes life easier to know exactly what you need to prep for a nursery. It also shows you upcoming test and screenings you must do in case you have no idea on what you’re doing, which for me being a first time mom; I didn’t have a clue! This app is incredible. Highly recommend. :)

App is easy to use, user friendly interface and pictures makes tracking the journey enjoyable. It’s helpful that there are notes or small articles to read on body development and about what to expect during that period of my pregnancy.

Best Pregnancy App
This is my first pregnancy, but I’ve tried almost every other app and most of them are just weird, don’t track properly or you have to pay, this app is completely free and there’s a huge community of people and several different groups customized to age, gender of baby, gestational age, anxiety, even moms who have already had their kids that still talk and need advice from each other. The baby tracking is great and you can chose what little fruit or prop represents your baby for the week. There’s so many tools that help you track so many things and even has little articles about almost everything. This app helps you learn so much if you want to as well, and like I said it’s all free, there’s even weekly videos you can watch on how your baby is developing, and how it tracks the development is insanely accurate, and because there’s such a big community there’s people that are going through what your going through and so much more, and if you end up making a post, you’re definitely guaranteed to always get a response from atleast a few people. I love this app so much and and thinking about even keeping it after my pregnancy to join groups with moms after pregnancy. If you’re looking for a baby app this one really is the way to go!
