Pudding

Pudding is a simple, warm diary for starting solids. No lectures, no advice — you decide what and when to feed your baby; Pudding just keeps a neat record. WHAT IT DOES: • Feeding diary — log a food, a "how it went" rating, a note and photos in a couple of taps • Reactions — record skin and tummy reactions with photos; the full history is always at hand • Introducing new foods — separate observation windows for regular foods and allergens: a food counts as introduced after a few feedings on different days, with «2 of 3 feedings» progress right on the food card • Allergen maintenance — gentle reminders to repeat introduced allergens so tolerance isn't lost • Food collection — a wall of introduced foods that fills up with every little win • Calendar feed — full history by day, "reactions" and "plans" filters, plan future introductions • PDF for your pediatrician — feedings, reactions and allergen status in one document • "Do not give" sheet — a one-page memo for the nanny or daycare • Monthly recap — a shareable card of everything new your baby tried • Your own plan — set the starting age, observation windows, allergen frequency and list to match your pediatrician's guidance • Custom foods, 14 languages, light and dark themes, and Pudding the mascot NO ACCOUNT, NO SERVERS OF OURS: your records stay on your phone and sync through your own iCloud. Pudding is a diary, not a doctor: it prescribes nothing and advises nothing. Make all feeding decisions together with your pediatrician.

Offerstep helps parents introduce complementary foods with confidence: a rich food catalog, guidance tied to public-health sources, and a private tracker for each baby—on iPhone, in the language you choose. SEVEN LANGUAGES Choose English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, or Ukrainian at setup. Switch anytime in Options. The catalog, Learn articles, onboarding, and tracker follow your language—one app for families across Europe and beyond. TRUSTED MEDICAL SOURCES For 360+ foods, Offerstep shows when to introduce, how to offer safely, allergen flags, and nutrition highlights—each tied to guidance from the WHO, CDC, AAP, NIAID, and other public-health authorities where relevant. Allergen classification follows recognized Codex and FDA frameworks where applicable. Tap Medical sources on any product to read the links behind the advice. Educational information only—not a substitute for your pediatrician. A THREE-YEAR PLAN FOR YOUR BABY Every child gets their own introduction roadmap: what to try today, what comes next, and how the journey unfolds over the first years. The plan adapts to your baby's age, allergies, diet, and progress. Follow the calendar on Home and Today, log each three-day introduction, and watch the plan update as you go. 360+ FOODS, FULL DETAIL Browse a deep catalog with recommended introduction age, allergen notes, safety tips, serving ideas, FAQ, and first-time introduction guides—product by product. Favorites, hidden foods, and per-baby allergy settings keep the list relevant to how you feed. SAFE THREE-STEP INTRODUCTIONS Introduce one new food at a time with a calm pattern: first taste, second offer, then regular inclusion over three days—with every step logged. Allergen-aware guidance helps you introduce priority allergens thoughtfully, following patterns cited from recognized allergy and pediatric sources. LOG SERVINGS AND FIRST TASTES—WITH PHOTOS After a food is introduced, keep logging each offer with amount, date, and notes. Attach an optional photo to any introduction step or serving—your baby, the bowl, or both. Stop guessing what happened last week; build a clear history on your iPhone. TRACKER FOR EVERY ACTION Introductions, servings, try-later plans, favorites, reactions, and plan changes live in one searchable calendar. Scroll by date, filter by food or baby, and export feeding history as PDF, CSV, or Excel—a tidy timeline to print, share, or hand your pediatrician before the visit. GALLERY TIMELINE Open any log photo from Tracker or browse every memory on the Gallery timeline. A visual feeding diary that goes beyond notes—optional, stored on your device, and easy to save to your Photo Library when you choose. STATISTICS AT A GLANCE See the big picture on one screen: foods introduced, in progress, planned try-later items, servings logged, allergens on the list, iron/zinc/vitamin C coverage, and variety by category. Charts and short labels—no spreadsheets, no guesswork. UP TO THREE BABIES Add a profile for each child—separate age, allergies, diet, introduction plan, and Tracker history. Switch between babies in one tap from Home, Foods, or Tracker. Twins, siblings, or cousins: everyone's journey stays organized. HOW TO USE OFFERSTEP New to the app?
