Baby apps

Of course there are - it's a whole new world... not only am I now hearing about baby monitoring apps I've even been told there's a breast feeding app which will remind you which boob you're on! Blimey..

Before we even get to that stage, there's the pregnancy apps, which week by week tell you of course what you will be feeling, how the baby is developing, but more amusingly what piece of fruit you little bundle of joy is currently representing..It's like a weekly advent calendar. One of my favourite instances was at our 20 week scan when we asked the midwife if she was going to measure our baby and was told that they don't measure the length at that point, but if we imagined a double mars bar at the petrol station, the baby was that side.

To my health and fitness coach of a husband, you can imagine this was outrageous! The idea that an NHS nurse should endorse such a lump of sugar so we rather pretentiously said how our app compared the baby to a mango and we'd stick to that comparison!
