iTunes App Review: “My-Baby-Book”

My-Baby-Book

Updated: January 22, 2014

Pregnancy brings a whirlwind of emotions for expectant Moms and Dads. My-Baby-Book gives the gift of memory, allowing parents to digitally record every treasured moment from conception up to and through the first 18 months after the birth of their bundle of joy.

Create a comprehensive chronicle of your pregnancy experience, remember the good (finding out you were expecting), the bad (those battles with morning sickness) and the ugly (labor pains) of every moment from Week 1 to Week 40. Upload photos, videos and audio recordings that document the first time you heard their heartbeat, saw them via ultrasound, noticed your “baby bump” was showing and all the other amazing firsts that goes along with having a baby.

After baby arrives, chronicle their first days at home (and your first days as a parent) and all the excitement which comes along with introducing a new member of the family to their loved ones. The first visit from Grandma and Grandpa, crawling, first words, favorite toys, first steps – all those precious moments can be collected and preserved for you (and baby) to look back on fondly in the future.

As an added bonus you can print out a copy of the completed book to keep forever on your bookshelf — personalize your photo cover and choose from basic fabric or faux leather bindings. All done in-app, you simply input payment and shipping details and your completed baby book will be shipped right to you. (It also makes a great gift for Grandma and Grandpa or anyone you wish!) You can also invite your friends and family to share in the experience via Facebook, or Twitter using the easy menu links as you and your baby grow together.

With this time of age, it seems like everyone is all about technology.  When my first child was born I tried so hard to keep up with his physical paper baby book as well as post online for everyone about him.  As I had more kids, it got harder and harder to write everything down as it happened.

My Baby Book is an awesome app because it makes it so easy to keep track of everything from your pregnancy to birth and up.  From adding pictures to quickly adding in facts, everything is super easy and all in one place.  After you input something, it makes it easy to share online by tapping the Share button or even Print it out!  If you want an actual physical baby book as well, and don’t want to print it out from the app, then you can at least use the app as a reference for writing in your book.  I absolutely love this idea!  I wish this was around when I was pregnant!  I would recommend this app to any new mom, as it is especially easy great to use from the start of a baby or pregnancy.  For the low price of $3, it is probably one of my favorite new apps and it would be even better if I could have used it as a baby book!

BUY IT: You can download My-Baby-Book from iTunes for $2.99.
