In addition to pregnancy apps, I have begun researching apps that track infant care activity, such as poopy diapers, feeding, and sleeping schedules. The one I am planning to use is called Baby Activity Logger for iPhone

From Babble.com:

About a week after I began using my iPhone, I was in love. I had a calendar with me at all times, and I was able to stay on top of my family’s schedule – even though there are six of us! I had email access while I was out, so I wasn’t constantly playing catch up with PTO business in the evening. And then I discovered apps! With these programs, I could track my baby’s feeding schedule, my family’s illnesses, and my attempts at exercise. And there were apps that could help keep my children entertained and educated! My iPhone was quickly becoming a vital tool that made my busy mom life more manageable.

So…project “Get Blake to Sleep” is about to start. I have spent the last week doing what most of the sleep experts suggest…charting Blake’s sleep patterns. I have used an AWESOME iPhone app called Baby Activity Log and it has been incredibly helpful.  Not only does this app keep track of sleep patterns, but it also converts data into bar graphs so you can see the variation in sleep from another perspective. Again…totally awesome. What I learned from charting this week is that Blake is getting the amount of sleep he should be getting for his age (around 15 hours total in a 24 hour period), but it is all broken into an average of 8 different sleep sessions a day! 3-4 of those are naps, and the other 4-5 are NIGHT WAKINGS! His longest average sleep duration for the week was 2 hours and 45 minutes.  – A Daily Dose of Davis

Parents that are sleep-deprived and continually busy might not have the chance to keep long and detailed notes and that is why things like your baby’s sleep habits, eating habits and bowel movements can all be tracked easily and quickly through the use of this iPhone app.

the really great thing about the Baby Activity Logger is that it will give you statistics based on everything that you’ve put into the tracking device

we’ve given the Baby Activity Logger 9 out of 10

Export: As exporting data will no longer be needed for reports, that feature has been removed.  The ability to download CSVs from nerdtown.com will remain available, but it will only contain data from prior to 1.3.4.

CSV Export: Since 1.3.4, you can get CSV exported data directly from the Today view.  Simply email yourself one or seven days of data, and a CSV file, in addition to HTML report, will be emailed to whomever you specified.

You’ve asked for it, here it is! Sync between devices!

New Features and Enhancements:

• Synchronize data between devices over Bluetooth! See the combined data in the today view!
• See graphical reports on all data from synchronized devices!
• Simplified In-app email with CSV attachments! See the email report right in the Today view and email it, including the CSV!
• Track dry diapers!
• All durations now split on midnight!
• Improved reports and graphing! Exporting data is no longer required, however as before, an internet connection (WiFi or 3G) is needed to view the graphical reports.  Also note: More reports will become available with future updates, as we upgrade existing reports to the new framework.
