As a new mom, you may wish you had a little more time to relax or some help with parenting. Well, iPhone app developers have answered your wishes by creating a plethora of iPhone apps for new and expecting moms. CitySaheli knows that moms don’t have time to sort through the thousands of apps available, so below is a list of those that can make parenting a little easier. Similar to our article “Top iPhone Apps Every Saheli Needs” we compiled a list of iPhone apps new moms may not have heard of, but definitely need. Check them out!
1. White Noise
Let’s face it, babies cry. At times it can even be easier to teach yourself theoretical physics than to put them to into bed. To soothe your little bundle of joy, the White Noise (only $1.99) app has more than 40 ambient sounds to choose from. New moms can even create a long list of sounds that range from a heartbeat to light rain with birds to washer. New sounds can be created by simply changing the pitch, speeding up or slowing down the tempo, and the fade-out option allows sleeping babies to rest quietly. Finally, White Noise has a timer that lets you create a playlist of sounds your newborn is sure to enjoy. White Noise and White Noise Lite (the free version) are available for download through the iTunes store button below.
2. Total Baby
Got a bad case of mommy brain? You won’t have to worry about that anymore with Total Baby by ANDEsigned! Total Baby ($4.99) is the number one baby log and tracking application for the iPhone. With 13 separate timing, tracking, and logging functions that allow users to input doctor’s visits, nursing sessions, sleep time, vaccines, allergies, and much more. In addition to scheduling, this app is also great when updating your doctor on your baby’s eating and sleeping habits as a summary of your child’s day is grouped into four categories (early morning, morning, afternoon, and evening) and displayed at the top of your iPhone. All in all, this app allows moms to better plan their errands and much needed mommy time. Click on the iTunes button below and start tracking your baby!
3. Baby Monitor
With newborns, sometimes two hands are not enough. Often, you find you need to be two places at once. The makers of Baby Monitor understand this, which is why they created a wonderful application to help moms out. Simply place your iPhone next to the baby while the application is open, input a phone number where you will be, and when the baby starts making noise, the Baby Monitor app places a call to directly to you! It’s a great way to monitor what your baby is doing from anywhere. This app costs $4.99 and can be purchased through the iTunes button below.
If you like the above apps, but don’t have an iPhone or iTouch, fear not! Most of these apps (or similar ones) are available for other smartphones. Check out their respective app stores for more information.
