Tracking your Baby

Hmmm, Tracking your baby. That kind of sounds like you're going to be putting a microchip in them and following them with a GPS tracking device.

So when you're a brand new parent, you are expected to track everything your baby does. Even though you are a sleep deprived goomba. So you need to know exactly when and how often he/she pees, poops, eats etc.....

Now I'm not so good with all of this type of thing on a piece of paper. I'm just too too tech oriented. And of course you tend to leave the piece of paper at home and decide you're going to remember to do it later, etc... and so on. Then you forget. But the one thing you always have with you (well most of us anyway) is your phone. I have a iPhone personally so this all for this. There is an App in the ITunes store called Baby Connect I think it's $3.99 or something like that. Not sure expensive.

In it you can fairly quickly put all those nifty bits of info. You can even have multiple people do it. There is a web interface that goes with it so you can have the grandparents be able to put the info in. It's all account based. So you can have multiple accounts and the info will go across.

It's not a perfect software, but it's on the neat side and has done well for us in tracking feeding and the other end. It's also handy because you tend not to forget it when you go to the doctor and they ask you questions about it.
