Must Have Apps for parent

When you give birth to your first child or second child (and maybe a third or more), no one really mentions that this new chapter in your life should be known as chaos or unchartered territory. Everything is changing and new things are happening in your life and your family. You are getting used to the new normal.  However, it is nice to know in amongst finding your new normal there are apps that can help you in those times of parenting where you just need a little help or a lot of help.  Here are 5 apps that can help.

  1. MomCo. Free iTunes and Android.
    • Made by Moms for Moms!. Effortlessly connect with other moms in your community for friendship and playdates (so you don’t have to go stir crazy in the house). Also, locate businesses that cater to your growing family at the click of an app. Enter code UXP2QNIFU7
  2. Healthy Children. Free iTunes and Android
    • This app was developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, so this is a great app because it is verified content. This app has tips, tools, newsletters and specific topics based on age. Definitely has a wealthy of great information.
  3. Baby Connect. $4.99 iTunes & Android
    • This is app tracks everything for baby: naps, nursing sessions, diaper changes, bottle feeding, medicines. If it has something to do with baby, you can track it with this app. Now, if you could only put your child to sleep. Well, there is an app for that #4.
  4. Lullabies Relax & Sleep Baby. Free Android, Sleep Pillow Baby, .99 iTunes (Also a white noise app for $1.99)
    • If you are wanting to get a few extra winks in then you want this app. Tip: If you use this app during every nap time, your child will recognize the pattern that the noise/music played is an indication of sleepy time. I did this with my twins and this was part of their rountine when they were babies, so it works!
  5. Cozi Family Organizer: Free iTunes and Android
    • Now to manage the chaos of everything else in life this is the app. You can setup grocery list aka stayaction, chores that will someday get back to doing after 3 months having a baby, appointments (which you will have tons of and really need to keep track of because sometimes they are had to get in the first place and rescheduling can be a pain).

We hope you love this list of apps. If you found a great app for new parents, please share in the comments.

    I love the Sprout app for keeping track of milestones, vaccinations and growth. It also has a feeding section for BFing or bottle.s It was a lifesaver when my son was a newborn!

    Great list of apps! I’m going to definitely give these a try. The MomCo app is one of my favorites. The Cozi Family Organizer seems like an app I could really use! Here are some great apps that I use and find very helpful. Follow the link to my site to check them out. http://www.nyctechmommy.com/category/live-simple/apps-for-parents/

    Cozi is a great app! But check out Sunrise (just bought by Microsoft), I think it does it a little better.

    I can totally vouch for COZI. I like the shared lists, but my husband has ZERO interest in using them, hahaha. Currently I use the to do lists for blog ideas, the journal for jotting notes while out and about. My favorite part is that you don’t have to have an online connection to use many of the features (although I make sure to open the app before I leave the house to make sure my shopping lists are up to date). COZI will sync later.

    Great list. I’d add Breastfeeding Central. It’s a really good breastfeeding guide, and has a directory of lactation consultants and support groups too. Very easy to use, and you can save favorite sections to refer back to later.
