I’ve built an app called ParentPA for expectant and new parents, and I’d really appreciate honest feedback from anyone who’s pregnant now or has a baby under one.
My wife and I have a 3 month old, so we’ve only just been through this ourselves. Even when you think you’ve got a handle on things, a lot of the practical stuff can still be easy to miss or end up sitting with one person to remember. Appointments, registrations, vaccinations, leave, deadlines and all the other bits you’re trying to keep track of when both of you are already exhausted.
That really hit home at hospital discharge. We left with loads to remember over the next few days, from the birth registration deadline to little things like remembering to put a sock on the baby’s foot before the heel prick test, at a point where neither of us had much brain left.
The app helps with that. It gives you a shared timeline for pregnancy through the first year, based on your due date or baby’s birthday. You invite your partner, can assign tasks and add notes, and you both see the same thing so you know what’s coming up and what needs doing.
It’s free at launch while I gather feedback and improve it, so if anyone here is willing to take a look, I’d really value views on what works and what’s missing.
