Love !!! Must have

Wish I heard of this sooner , I love that it’s the perfect amount of we are here just enough to listen and to speak.

Beacon is a lifesaver.

I’m a new mom. Freshly PP 4 months. And I cannot tell you how many times it has been 2am up with a crying baby, no sleep and I just felt alone. And then a notification would pop up.. “would you like to light your beacon.” Going onto beacon and seeing the world of moms all awake dealing with the exact same thing as me I know it sounds silly but it calmed my nerves knowing I’m not alone awake in this big old world. There’s thousands of other mother’s awake. Venting, asking questions or giving messages of hope and prayer. Thank you to the creators of beacon from a new mom who desperately needed to be seen and heard by someone other than my baby 😂😭🥹🙏🏻

Needs a higher character limit!

If I could give this a 4.5 I would because I love this app so much. Being able to connect with moms all over the world has helped me so much from seeing similar situations I am dealing with as well as the private insights from other moms who reply to my posts. My one and only issue I have with this app is that the character count limits just isn’t enough, I have more things to say then just 100 words and I feel as though this app would be so much better if moms didn’t have to water down their words in order to be able to make a post or reply to someone- it’s hard to come up with a short answer for something that may need a longer explanation. It’s not like if I made one post I could just make another post after that because I would have to wait an hour before I could type out another 100 word post and by that time I probably would’ve forgotten what it was I had to say or the first half would be lost in the other posts that moms make. I think this app would benefit from a higher character count and until then it’s great but not perfect.

Needed this support

I’m a second time mom of two under 2 and postpartum has hit me harder now than it did before. A mom posted this app on a group I’m in and said it helped her feel not so alone. I used the app for the first time yesterday and instantly felt better doing the nighttime feedings and diaper changes by myself. Because I knew I wasn’t actually alone. I’m so grateful to use this app, even if it’s just the free version.💜

Best App Ever 💕

After I had my baby I felt like I was drowning in loneliness and depression. My sister suggested that I try this app, and it has changed everything. Tracking everything from how long my nurses on each side to how long he sleeps has been so helpful. I’ve made friends with the women in my first circle, we’re in a group text now and we talk every day.
