Pregnancy apps for daddy to be

Hi all, I find it crazy I am typing this. I found out we are pregnant on Saturday and although scared I have been reading about baby and the current stage (5 weeks). I find this so helpful and wondered if anyone can recommend a daddy friendly app that I can suggest to my husband. I'm a medical professional so the apps I like are very detailed. I'm looking for something simple and humorous if possible that describes baby size (orange seed etc.) And stage like "I'm developing eyelids". Any recommendations? I would appreciate them.

P.s reason for this is husband doesn't believe it and couldn't see the line. Since Saturday I've done lots of tests and they aren't faint bit I haven't shown him and decided to do a digital and give him a present tomorrow to show him I am and wanted him to feel the reality through the app too.

My husband loves pregnancy+. The homepage is a bit annoying but it has a little blurb every week about what happens to you, what happens with baby and lots of videos on the baby that week. They have a section that allows you to see a cgi of what the baby looks like each week and you can scale it to be life size which is cool, you can interact with it and if you tap the arms and legs it will react and give them a little flick.
He literally looks at it every morning!

I use Ovia pregnancy and that gives you the option to sync it with your partner’s app as well. If you want the size thing it gives you 4 options of what to show you, so it can give you fruit/veg, items from a Parisian bakery, animals or random. My baby this week is the size of a poppy seed, dulce de leche, a speck of sawdust or a waterbear apparently! DH likes seeing the updates each morning ☺️

Ovia pregnancy is one of the ones I use, love the home page as it has how big baby's hands and feet are week by week, also has a view in the womb part that shows u what baby looks like each week

Babycenter app is really good. Make sure it is the UK version not the US. Congratulations!

@luxxlisbon @MrsB2019x @boymum88 @Mishmased thank you all for the options these are excellent and I will certainly have a look at them today! Very excited to be telling husband tomorrow. He genuinely doesn't think we are expecting. Will be nice to have an app to recommend too!

Check Out DudeDoula as well. It's relatively new but what makes it different than all of the other ones is that it actually helps your husband support you through labor. It also has al of the same features as the other pregnancy apps but i found it to be more concise and actually had some really pertinent information in the help section.
