What are you favourite pregnancy related apps?

I'm using "the bump" (obviously  :D ) and "baby center" but wondering if there is anything a little bit different out there that can help the long days pass by?

    Ditto for Ovia and wonder weeks. Wonder weeks saved me many times questioning what on earth I was doing wrong "...ohhh, just a normal stormy period". That thing was on the money 99% of the time

    Another vote for Ovia and Wonder weeks (so nice when your kid is being a jacka** and you're like what the eff haha).

    Not pregnancy related, but after baby is born: My favorite one is called wonder weeks. Also baby see (simulates the vision of your baby based upon age in weeks). 
    Ohh! I love the sound baby see! I've never heard of that! And I totally agree about wonderweeks- i use that with my daughter- currently in a stormy period!! Lmao!

    Dissenting voice: I think the science behind Wonder Weeks is sketchy and it was also never accurate for my kid. I did like that it gave me a rough development timetable though.

    Usually The Bump, Babyname is like Tindr for picking baby names between Mom and Dad  :D and sometimes look at Ovia.

    Ohhh I had a really good one with my 2nd baby. Was so good for after birth , you could time feeds and which side you fed on (if breastfeeding) or just when baby had last Bottle. Also had nappy changes and if it was poos or weez so it was easier to keep track of. I don't know of others track that stuff. I didn't with my first but remembered my midwife asking n I wouldn't have a clue couldn't remember a thing. I can't remember the name of the app but there's lots :)

    I first downloaded the bump, what to expect, ovia, and baby center. I ended up deleting them all except Ovia. They are all pretty much the same, I just liked the interface of Ovia best.

    I have both The Bump app, as well as Ovia.  I use The Bump off and on, but really like Ovia's app for keeping track of symptoms, appt. info, etc.  If I had to choose one, that would be it, for sure!

    Hey! Anyone heard of PEANUT? I just got on it. It’s bascially like tinder for making Mom friends. Only negative I’ve seen so far is there need to be more people on it. It seems great for people who are looking to build connections locally! :)

    I have The Bump and Ovia. Like @lucylou214 I use Ovia to track symptoms, I find it easier. I’m going to have to look into some of the other apps too that you all suggest! I like trying different things.

    +1 for The Bump and Ovia.  Totally downloading the baby name app when I get home, and I'm putting another plug out there for "Who's Your Daddy?" for partners.  My husband LOVES it.  (Disclaimer: it costs $2.99, but has a hospital bag checklist for mum, dad, and baby, and a contraction timer, which I think makes it totally worth it.)

    +1 for the Bump and Ovia as well as  the Wonder Weeks app for when baby arrives. We used... I think it was an app through Nameberry to come up with this baby’s name. It was some kind of name generator. It takes into account your last name as well as suggests middle names that might go with the intended name. If there is a specific meaning you like or if you have another child they give you lists of names that “go with” the first child’s name or that mean something similar to whatever you want the name to mean. 
    Also, like @babybro218 I’m going to suggest an app for the dads. My husband LOVES the 
    Reddit subpages “Daddit” he’s constantly showing me hilarious and fun things other dads post on there

    +1 for Wonder Weeks!  I also LOVE the Sprout apps, both the pregnancy and baby ones.  I still use the baby one to keep track of immunizations and growth records for my 3yo and 1yo.  I also used the baby one for tracking sleep, diapers, nursing, and pumping.  It's invaluable!

    This is my favorite pregnancy app by far. Tools include weight tracking, calendar, kick counts, contraction timing, and kegel exercise program. That's on top of the daily/weekly tracker and about your pregnancy sections for mom and baby.
