Every Postpartum Doula & NCS’s Dream App!
Instead of juggling six different apps and logging in and out of client accounts, everything is localized in one seamless hub. Switching between families—even clients who use the same tracking platform—used to be a major pain point, but this app makes transitioning between profiles completely effortless.
What truly sets it apart is the deep level of customization. Every family has unique needs, and being able to toggle specific tracking fields on or off—including tailored setups for multiples—allows me to meet every client right where they are. At the end of the day, fed is best, and this app makes supporting and celebrating every family's journey simple.
Plus, the design is stunning! Whether you prefer light, dark, or black-and-white mode, the sleek aesthetic stays intact. It’s functional, beautiful, and an essential tool for any newborn care professional. Highly recommended!

"Six different apps and logging in and out of client accounts" is the exact thing working newborn care specialists kept telling me about, and it is why it is built the way it is — you sign in as yourself rather than as the family, and your name stays on everything you logged. Coming from someone doing this professionally, this is the one I will be re-reading on the hard days. Thank you. If anything is missing for how you actually run a shift, I would genuinely like to hear it — hello@milkmonster.app.
Super helpful
Response from developer
Sleep-deprived first-time parents is precisely who the first version got built for — my wife and I were doing the "wait, when did she last eat?" thing at 3am and I got tired of guessing. If you only ever use it for feeds, that is genuinely fine. If you do want more later, sleep and diapers work the same way, and whatever either of you logs shows up on both phones at once. Thank you for writing this while you are in the thick of it.

"Save every moment" — that's the whole reason this exists, said better than we manage on our own website. Thank you so much. If you ever need anything, or have an idea for us, we're at milkmonster.app/support. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
Love the simplicity
Response from developer
You are right, and I am sorry. That one was my fault — I pushed a bad update on the evening of the 6th that stopped the app opening, and it took me until late that night to roll it back properly. Deleting and reinstalling every time is exactly what that looked like from your side. It is fixed now. If it is still doing it for you, please email hello@milkmonster.app and I will sort it out personally and make it right, subscription included. You said you need reliability. That is fair, and it is on me to earn back.
Our whole family loves this app!!
It’s simple, convenient, and genuinely makes a difference for our family. We love being able to open the app and immediately know what Grayson needs without blowing up the family group chat. If you have multiple people helping care for your baby, this app is SO worth it. 🤍🍼
Response from developer
"Without blowing up the family group chat" might be the best description of this app anyone has written. An aunt, grandparents and mum all on one log is exactly the case it exists for. The part I am proudest of is that everyone signs in as themselves, so you can see who did what and not just that it got done. Thank you for writing this.
Awesome app!
Response from developer
"Free unlike others" is the line I'd hoped someone would say out loud. It's deliberate. Feeds, pumping, diapers, sleep and growth are free, along with the last 30 days of your log, and it isn't a trial waiting to snap shut. Since 2.0 there's also a Home Screen widget for your last feed, and you can start or end sleep straight from Control Center. Both free - small things, but they earn their keep when you're mid-pump with no hands. If there's ever something you'd love it to do next, milkmonster.app/ideas - we read every one. - Erick & Alyssa

My husband and I tried a few different tracking apps, but the moment we found Milk Monster, we were sold. It’s incredibly user-friendly, thoughtfully designed, and honestly just pleasant to use during those sleep-deprived newborn days.
We love that we can track everything in one place; not just feeds, but diaper changes, sleep, and health. One of our favorite features is that multiple caregivers can use the app simultaneously, so we’re always seeing real-time updates. The journal section for milestones and the notes tab for questions to ask the pediatrician are an additional and thoughtfully useful tool.
Basically, this app is a one-stop shop! Highly recommended to any new parent, especially if triple feeding has unexpectedly become your full-time job!
Response from developer
Triple feeding is the part nobody warns you about — nurse, pump, bottle, and then it's somehow time to start again before you've put anything down. That you found a spare minute to write this while you're actually in it means a great deal to us. Your start sounds close to ours. Isabella arrived in May, we spent over a week in the hospital, and the whole reason this app exists is that Alyssa and I kept having to ask each other who fed her last. So reading that you and your husband are both in there seeing the same log update in real time is the exact thing we built it for, and honestly the thing I most hoped someone would one day say back to us. Glad the journal and the pediatrician notes are pulling their weight too. Those were quiet additions we weren't at all sure anyone would use. If there's ever something you wish it did, come tell us at milkmonster.app/ideas — we read every single one. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
The best baby tracking app!
Response from developer
A dozen apps and this is the one that stuck — that's the review I most hoped we'd get. Thank you. "Simple and clear" is genuinely the hardest part; we've cut more features than we've shipped to keep it that way, so it means a lot to hear that it landed. If you ever have a question, or something you'd love it to do next, come tell us at milkmonster.app/ideas — we read every single one. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
Best tracking app for my needs
Response from developer
This might be the most useful review we've ever gotten — thank you for taking the time to write all of it. The paper-at-the-hospital, then-thinking-you're-fine-once-you're-home part is our story too, right down to how anxious it got when we stopped. And you found the feature we fought hardest for. You almost never have a free hand at the moment it's actually happening — a tracker that can only record "now" is recording a fiction. Same reason the feed controls ended up on the lock screen. If you ever hit a question, or think of something that would make it fit your days better, we'd really like to hear it: milkmonster.app/ideas. You clearly know what you need out of one of these. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
Best app of all time!!
PS: The only thing that I want to request is, once you delete an accidental breast feeding it stays in the log and doesn't disappear, it just stays there and says "removed by..." and it drives my ocd a little nuts that it doesn't go away but other than that 10/10!!!!!
Response from developer
Erin — following up, because this one is done. The line no longer shows when you delete your own entry within half an hour of making it. It only stays now if someone removes an entry a different caregiver made — which is the case it was actually built for, and it turned out to be about 3% of deletes. Yours was the other 97%. It's in the latest update, so if your App Store hasn't refreshed yet it'll arrive with the next one. And as promised, nothing was ever actually lost — every removed entry is still in the CSV export, with who removed it and when. Thank you for the push. You were right. — Erick

Really helpful!
Response from developer
This made our whole morning — thank you. We're Erick and Alyssa, the two very tired parents who built Milk Monster, and hearing it helped at your pediatrician visit is exactly why we made it. The “add a baby” button is there because our family's growing too — congratulations on your newest little one, and give them a squeeze from us. 🍼
Love it
Response from developer
Thank you — this is one of our favorite kinds of messages to get. The whole idea was that everyone caring for a baby could be on the same log, so Mom can hand off and still know exactly how the day went. Grandparents are what make that actually work. Give your granddaughter a squeeze from us — and if a question or an idea ever comes up, we're at milkmonster.app/support. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
LOVE this App!!!
Response from developer
"And prettiest" might be our favorite compliment yet — thank you. We're a two-person operation and we care a probably-unreasonable amount about how it looks, so that one really lands. Congratulations on your newborn. If a question or an idea comes up, we'd love to hear it at milkmonster.app/ideas. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
This app is a lifesaver
Response from developer
This genuinely made our day — thank you. Those first feeding weeks are such a stressful, tender stretch (we lived every minute of it), and if having one calm place to stay on schedule has taken even a little pressure off your wife, that's exactly why we built this. Sending her so much strength — she's doing an amazing job! Thank you for being one of our very first. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
I’m Grandpa
Response from developer
A grandpa review just made our whole week. 🥹 This is exactly the moment we built Milk Monster for — Mom getting to hand off and still know everything's taken care of, because Grandpa's got it covered. That trust between caregivers is the whole point. Thank you for being part of your granddaughter's village — give that little one a squeeze from us. — Erick & Alyssa 🍼
