## What is WebMD Baby?

Over 1.7 million parents have downloaded the WebMD Baby app to track their baby’s development and get trusted, physician-approved advice.  In this single, free app, you’ll have the right resources to raise your infant or newborn.

Five comprehensive tools to keep track of important needs for infants and newborns:
- Breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, and solid-food trackers -- record and review all your feeding and nursing sessions, including both breast milk and formula.   
- Sleep tracker:  Records not only time of each session, but location such as crib, car seat, stroller, and more.
- Diaper tracker: Keep track of each diaper change -- dry, wet, or both.
- Growth tracker:  Allows you to record height, weight, and head circumference.
- Baby Book: Capture your baby's memories and share them with collaborators. (Note: videos cannot be shared or backed up due to file sizes)
- The nursing and feeding trackers allow you to schedule reminders and even base them on previous feedings.
- Collaborate with your partner, relatives, or caregiver to keep track of all your child’s needs. Tracker updates sync across all devices.
- Now you can use the feeding, nursing, sleeper, and diaper trackers on Apple Watch to add new entries and receive reminders.

### 2/5 — Not great for co-parenting

*2023-01-10, version 3.3*

Since downloading this 6 months ago, my husband and I have never once been able to “collaborate” as the app intended. This means we have shared one log-in, so that at least we could both be logging diapers and feedings (using combo of nursing and bottles). This has led to bugginess in entries getting either lost or double-counted, as well as our apps recently no longer updating at all with the information from the other one. It’s incredibly frustrating.

### 4/5 — Could be better

*2021-12-28, version 3.0*

Overall this is a great app for tracking baby’s intake and output, as well as pediatric visits and growth. I wish it would show all the feedings in the same area as we use a combo of pumping and direct feeding and trying to keep track of times gets cumbersome.
I am also having an issue with inviting my husband to be allowed to “share” the app with me and log what he does for her. I have contacted the developer and they say they are looking into it so we will see how long it takes to fix.

### 5/5 — Great baby app

*2021-10-02, version 3.0*

I love this app. Second baby using it. I like that I can add the naps from daycare after the fact to see the total sleep. And also the nursing total if there is a growth spurt or cluster feeding.

### 2/5 — Great features but…

*2021-07-29, version 2.9*

I was very excited about the collaboration feature of this app, but after many, many tries, it will not send because I cannot select the baby in the invite form. The whole reason I downloaded this app was the collaboration feature.

### 4/5 — Great! Easy to use

*2021-06-28, version 2.9*

I love how easy it is to Use and the articles are wonderful. I do wish it continued though past age 2. And out new information/articles out, since I have used it for all three of my babies.

### 2/5 — Misogynistic & Outdated Articles

*2021-03-04, version 2.8*

Fantastic for general medical advise, but don’t expect anything modern from the recommended articles.  For example, ‘Sex life after baby’ assumes Herero couples & recommends getting Dad to watch the baby for a few minutes so Mom can rest to get in the mood. Seriously? Bribe your husband into helping care for his child with sex... that alone is enough to make me delete this app, but other articles are equally as outdated & infuriating to read.

### 3/5 — Glitchy and incomplete

*2020-03-31, version 2.7*

The app routinely opens without the navigation buttons at the bottom and has to be completely closed to reset. It also lacks a report export function to see feeding totals over the course of days - it’s extremely inconvenient to navigate between days’ data (multiple clicks and whole screens). Also, entering the PIN every 5 seconds is annoying, especially for the breastfeed timer. Other apps are able to stay logged in, please figure this out, you’re not a bank with my secure info on file...

### 1/5 — Can’t collaborate

*2020-01-08, version 2.5.1*

App seems great at first glance. However, after setting up our account and inputting baby info, the app would not let me add my wife via the “collaboration” option. I would receive “network connection error” via the app. I tried force closing the app, restarting my phone, using wifi and LTE data, and different emails. Nothing worked.

App is useless to us unless we can both input and sync baby’s data. So we will be deleting and finding another app to use.

### 1/5 — Not sure how it got 4 stars

*2019-12-22, version 2.5*

This app does not work. Sure it may do some of the tracking and it does provide pertinent information about caring for a baby. But for me, the most important parts of it the app did not work. The photo library, being able to are other people so we can share the tracking of activities, and others. Wrote to their support and have not heard back after 48 hours. Not even an acknowledgement that they received my complaint. Do yourself a favor and get the "baby tracker"

### 3/5 — Like the app but articles are missing

*2019-10-24, version 2.4*

Lots of good stuff, but there are much needed articles that are missing.  On my main page, I see “Baby Development: Your 1-month-old”, but when I click on it, there’s nothing there except the source/written by info. Probably keep this pending what I find on other apps, because there’s a great search feature and I love being able to look up my weird questions... but I need my Development articles.
