Love love love love love it. I love looking at the graphs to see how much she's eaten each day and what the trend is... as well as how much sleep she's gotten, average bottle volume, longest stretch of sleep... etc etc etc. It's an easy one glance at how often she's slept thru the night, how often she's pooped, etc. And of course the timing from the last diaper change / bottle / sleep is so useful. I wanted the itzbeen but I absolutely love Baby Connect and couldn't live without it now!!! It's great for Wagon Jr. too because we can track his potty times and when he naps and when he doesn't... so useful even at 3 years of age (dropping his nap, and potty training)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546412 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 20:56:27 +0000 Mrs. Stroller 546412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used the total baby app for about a week or two until we kind of fell into a schedule that happened at the same time every day, then I stopped using it. A friend had the itzbeen and said she used it for about two weeks too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546387 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 20:36:25 +0000 mamabolt 546387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Baby ESP for Android and loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546367 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 20:12:43 +0000 LittleFox 546367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also use Baby Connect, the android version.

You can just add an additional child and toggle between the two. I use my iPad and it is so easy to keep track. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546301 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 18:36:46 +0000 pelikila 546301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first few days I did pen and paper for diapers and just nursed on demand. After that, I went by instinct. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546300 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 18:34:44 +0000 matador84 546300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm old school pen/paper.

Reviewed it on the blog a while back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546258 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 17:49:56 +0000 littleveesmommy 546258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I downloaded the Similac app on my iPhone and love it! It tracks breast feeding, bottles, pumping, diapers, and sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546242 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 17:33:44 +0000 lemondrop 546242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used it a ton for the first 3 months, but I didn't have a smart phone at the time. Now that I do, next time I will used Baby Connect. It is great if you don't have a smart phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546214 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 17:10:08 +0000 birdofafeather 546214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use total baby which seems just like baby connect except baby connect you can also use online. I hadn't heard of BC so I already had total baby and that's what we're sticking with. I returned the itzbeen that I got bc I like tracking the number of dipes, etc over the days. But I like graphs and charts. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546121 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 15:37:37 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 546121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coruscations: Yeah, I'm a big picture person. Do they seem happy? some wet diapers? Some food? Not crying too much? Some sleep? Then we're all good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546120 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 15:35:40 +0000 pl0508 546120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Obsessed with Baby Connect ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546116 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 15:33:17 +0000 coruscations 546116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Train: @Mrs. Jacks: I'm glad I'm not the only one!

The only downside is that is doesn't save a record of the past, but since I was home it didn't really matter because I would notice if it had been an unusually long time since I had fed/pumped etc. I stopped tracking diapers pretty quickly though because it was pretty much a guaranteed diaper change during every feeding. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546081 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 14:40:45 +0000 Honeybee 546081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use the Baby Esp app on my Android. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546060 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 14:18:28 +0000 Mrs. Train 546060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used pen and paper for the first couple days of twins until we got their weight checked. Then we stopped tracking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546059 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 14:18:08 +0000 sunny 546059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Baby Connect and love it. I love that DH and I can both access the app. Also I *love* that I can see "this time yesterday" she had X # of diapers, Y hours of sleep, etc. I can make sure we're on track with napping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546057 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 14:15:15 +0000 pinkcupcake 546057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm old school - I prefer writing it down! I dl-ed several apps but ended up just tracking in an hourly planner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546051 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 14:10:32 +0000 CarrieLouWho 546051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby connect is awesome!!!

Though, my friend with twins didn't like it because you can't time both babies nursing at once. She uses a different app. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546026 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:56:11 +0000 sorrycharlie 546026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for baby connect! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546023 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:54:00 +0000 immabeetoo 546023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Babyconnect here, and I know you can add more than one baby.. because I somehow add unnamed children on accident in the middle of the night! I figure it's easiest when I have my phone by me anyways. I did paper tracking for the first month because I was so groggy and it was easier or some reason. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546022 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:51:54 +0000 Mrs. Pen 546022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh it was a PIA and both DH and I are tech savvy we could not get it to work!!!</p> <p>I loved the free WTE baby tracker app- it was great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-546020 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:49:01 +0000 Mrs. Blue 546020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The itzbeen doesn't keep up with anything past the last entry, right? For instance, am I right that it will tell me the last diaper change was an hour ago but won't keep up with how many diaper changes there were that day? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-545993 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:25:30 +0000 mrskc 545993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't use it. I use the baby connect app to track feedings, diapers and sleep. My DH has it on his phone too and it will sync with mine. I'm not sure if baby connect works for twins tho. I did a google search and it looks like the Total Baby App works for multiple children. Or I'm sure the Itzbeen timer would work well too. </p> <p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/total-baby/id312198543?mt=8" rel="nofollow">https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/total-baby/id312198543?mt=8</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itzbeen-pocket-nanny-anyone-use-this-if-not-how-do-you-track-schedule#post-545990 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 13:24:45 +0000 JerricaBenton 545990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got one and I had heard (maybe here?) that it was a pain in the butt so I was planning on returning it. When I checked it out though, it seemed pretty straight forward and it has a clock and nightlight, which seem useful on their own so I decided to keep it. No input on actual use though - LO isn't here yet :) </p>
