Postpartum Tracker is the recovery companion and postpartum journal built for mothers, not babies, with your postpartum wellness at the center. From day one through the fourth trimester and beyond, track your mood, healing, breastfeeding, sleep, hormones, and screen for postpartum depression and anxiety in one calm, organized space. The postpartum window is the most under-served stretch of a mother's life. Every other app pivots to baby tracking once the baby arrives. Postpartum Tracker keeps you, the mother, at the center. WHAT YOU CAN LOG - Mood and mental health: daily check-ins, baby blues vs PPD signals, anxiety, sleep - Postpartum healing: lochia (bleeding) days, C-section incision check, perineal recovery, engorgement - Breastfeeding and pumping: feed times, side, duration, latch quality, pump output, bottle volume - Hormones and physical symptoms: night sweats, hair loss, hot flashes, libido, period return - Sleep: hours slept, naps, wake-ups, sleep debt - Medications: postpartum-safe meds, prenatal vitamins, iron, lactation aids, mental-health meds - Daily symptoms: fatigue, brain fog, headaches, appetite, body aches, pelvic floor PPD AND PPA SCREENING (EDINBURGH POSTNATAL DEPRESSION SCALE) - Built-in EPDS self-screen, prompted every 2 weeks for the first 12 weeks, then monthly - Public-domain validated instrument (Cox 1987) - Clear next-step guidance if your score suggests reaching out to your OB or midwife - This is a SELF-SCREENING tool, not a diagnosis INSIGHTS AND CHARTS - Trend charts across 7, 30, 90 and 365 day windows for mood, sleep, healing, and feeding - See your recovery week by week, not day by day - Export your full log as a PDF for your 6-week checkup, OB, lactation consultant, or therapist POSTPARTUM RECOVERY PLAN - Personalized care plan generated after onboarding: daily check-ins, weekly mood screens, monthly milestones - Time-sensitive reminders so the meds, the screening, the pump session are never missed - Calendar view with completed, missed and upcoming tasks APPLE ECOSYSTEM - Apple Watch quick check-ins for mood and feed times - Home screen widget for today's tasks and your latest mood - iPhone and iPad with optional encrypted iCloud sync CAREGIVER AND PARTNER MODE - Share your log with your partner, doula, or family - Partner can co-track and receive PPD red-flag notifications PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your data stays on your device. No forced account. Optional iCloud sync is private to you. Nothing is sold, nothing is shared. BUILT FOR - New mothers in weeks 0 through 52 postpartum - First-time moms and experienced moms - Mothers recovering from a C-section, vaginal birth, or birth trauma - Mothers at higher PPD/PPA risk who want a low-friction self-screen - Partners and doulas co-supporting a new mom WHY POSTPARTUM TRACKER You are not failing. You are healing. This is harder than anyone told you. Postpartum Tracker is built around that truth. The mood swings, the bleeding that won't stop, the latch that won't work, the sleep that isn't there, the version of you that you can't find. Every screen reflects what new moms actually live through, in language that does not pretend. IMPORTANT This app is for informational tracking only. It is not medical advice and does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale included is a validated self-screening instrument, not a diagnosis. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional, including your OB, midwife, lactation consultant, or mental-health provider, before starting, changing or stopping any treatment, medication or care plan.
