tracking babies...

Since they were born I have been tracking everything = pee, poop, eating, sleeping.  I use an app on my phone to make it easy and I really like having the records. But I am starting to get tired doing of it, I'm just not so sure I will remember what I need to if I don't track,
Just wondering when others stopped tracking all the info.

    I never tracked- we didn't have any issues to need to track so I figured why kill myself with useless work.

    This. I only tracked feedings prior to dr appts because I knew the neonatologist would want to know precisely what they were taking in. For a while I also would track when they pooped (just because I could never remember, and they could go days and days....). Other than that, noooo tracking!

    I tracked w my singleton for about 3 mo. After a couple months, I would looking for patterns so that I could create a loose schedule, more for my sanity than anything else. Once we had established our routine, I quit tracking

    I'm tracking this time with a similar goal in mind.

    Maybe a month?  I couldn't remember anything and that's how we would remember when feedings were.  But after the help left we pretty much stopped.  There weren't as many people involved in the daily care of the girls.

    TTC since May 2006. After 3 failed Clomid cycles, 2 failed Injectibles/IUIs, 2 failed IVFs and 1 failed FET, we moved on to adoption!

    Last ditch FET resulted in BFP, and identical twin girls!

    We stopped tracking at our two week appointment because our pedi said it was unnecessary since they got back up to birth weight, unless we wanted to do it for our own record.

    We stopped tracking after our 2 weeks pedi appt. once we got the clear that they were gaining weight and our "schedule" was working, we stopped.
