DAILY SUGGESTED ROUTINE

Simply follow the suggested daily routines or navigate to more detailed information on a specific scheduled event.

In the early days, your baby will need lots of flexibility so looser guidelines are provided. As your baby gets older, the routines become more specific.

SLEEP TIMES

This feature provides you with valuable information regarding the optimal time to put your baby to bed, how to settle your baby down as well as when/why to wake your baby. You will also be guided in what you can expect in terms of night sleep and wakings.

FEEDING YOUR BABY

The feeding information is generated according to your feeding preferences (breast-feeding, formula or solids) and provides safe and medically recommended feeding practices. The App will develop a weaning menu depending on your specific choice of age for introducing solids.

The feeding section not only provides you with times and recommended quantities for meals, but also gives handy tips on increasing breast milk supply, how to know if your baby is full and daily menus and recipes for healthy eating.

STIMULATION ACTIVITIES

A daily activity is provided for your baby according to your baby’s current level of development.

BABY’S VACCINATIONS

The App provides a tracker for your baby’s vaccinations, including the suggested age for each vaccination according to your country’s requirements. 3 countries currently supported.

WEIGHT TRACKER

By inputting your baby’s weight, you will have a recorded graph of your baby’s growth.

SHOPPING LIST

The App creates a weekly shopping list, which can be forwarded to your email to ensure you have all the necessary ingredients for the meal plans and play activities for the next week.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Baby Sense Day-by-Day provides a list of carefully chosen and useful articles according to your baby’s age and needs.

GALLERY

You can load images as frequently as you wish to the gallery. Each image is dated and creates a memory of your baby’s first year of life.

Input your baby’s data regularly

At least once a week, provide the App with information about your feeding method (breast-feeding, formula or solids) and the time your baby wakes up for the day. This allows Baby Sense Day-by-Day to create appropriate feeding guidelines specific to your baby’s sleeping and eating habits.

If you change your method of feeding during a week e.g. introduce solids, be sure to input the new data by clicking on the BABY DATA button.

THE FULL-VERSION OF THIS APP IS FREE FOR TWO WEEKS AFTER WHICH ALL FEATURES BUT THE WEEKLY ROUTINE WILL BE DISABLED. SLEEPING, FEEDING, STIMULATION, HEALTH INFORMATION AND ALL OTHER FEATURES OF THIS APP CAN BE PERMANENTLY ENABLED BY UPGRADING TO THE PREMIUM VERSION.

Pros and cons of Baby Sense app for iPhone and iPad

Baby Sense app good for

First of all I like how this app has a daily routine. Easy to follow, implement and make adapt into our lives. Secondly, I love how it has recipes, ideas of daily activities and reasoning behind timeline. My negative points would be how you have to pay a lot for a premium version that is outdated and could offer more options like have a Canadian version for vaccine schedule and a few more ideas of activities and North American recipes as some things we dont usually eat in our households. Overall good app. Finding it valuable for my needs.
This app is excellent to keep track of your babys day. What I like the most are the example of meals and snacks that can be given to baby based on his/her age.
This app was so informative... I like it serves as my daily guide

Some bad moments

Did the phone upgrade the app went faulty then had to reload - now its asking me to upgrade as I have the trail version .... Extremely annoyed .... I want the fully functional working app without having to fork out for an upgrade AGAIN
After months of entering data nothing has changed. Exact same info for the past 5 months. Dont waste the money or the space on your phone.
Didnt want it, dont want it. Want it out of my purchase history
This app is brilliant! Vaccine reminder, sleep tips, play activity suggestions even shopping help...all to help parents!!!
I was seriously impressed with how incredible helpful this app is. Basically covers everything I need to know regarding my baby as he develops. Well done and thank you!
The first two weeks was wonderful! Such an easy to use app that gives little snippets of exactly the info you need! Also had great ideas for activities & meals...THEN I upgraded to the Premium version - I paid $2.99 - Thats expensive for a little lifestyle gadget! But I was happy to pay it since I had confidence & great success following the guidelines in the book. Since the upgrade it stopped showing any solid meal entries, no matter what I input or choose on the Baby Data screen the times are all wrong! The app is now completely useless. So utterly dissapointed. $2.99?? I want a refund.
