Baby Apps for iPad/iPhone?

I have a few months to go still before I belong on this board, but I just wondered if anyone is using an iPad/iPhone app to track diapers, feelings, sleep, etc and would recommend it? I used printouts last time and was thinking about buying this Baby Daze organizer book this time around, but I got an iPad for Christmas and thought it would be nice to have it on here instead. I would love to hear any suggestions.

 Thanks!

If you plan on breastfeeding and pumping milk maid is a great app. Also express free, eat sleep, and baby buzz.

+1 for Total Baby! it was a lifesaver when I couldn't remember my name much less the last time I fed H. Also it helped tremendously when I was pumping.

I'm planning on using Baby Connect (http://www.baby-connect.com/ )

A friend of my pretty much swears by it and knows me well enough to think I'd love it as well.

You can have the mobile app, which it's geared for, but you can even log-in online. They even have it for android.

you can do all of the following: (copied from their website:)

Nursing tracker

Solid food tracker

Pumping tracker

Diaper tracker

Sleep tracker

Activity, Milestone, photo, mood, location tracker

Push Notifications Emails and Export Medicine tracker

Facebook, Twitter and Text Messages

ETA: You can also have multiple kids on your account, so its not just for newborns or babies, you can always have your older kids information at hand in case you want to compare your first childs feedings with your 5th childs, etc.

Another Edit: It was once free...now it's like $5. I'd say it'd be worth it if you are planning on staying with your Iphone for a long time, but if you switch phones often....maybe not.....

I use Baby Feeding Log. It's super simple, and I like that you can manually add data, although I'm sure other apps have the same feature.

I loved Baby Connect. I love the syncing across devices plus a web entry option so DH or my mom could enter info. It was easy to use and it has all kinds of cool graphs and data displays. You can see a color coded view of days to easily see if your LO is putting him/herself on a schedule. You can see averages for the day, and totals across days and months. It's just really neat. :)

I use Baby Connect. It's not free but is totally worth it to me. I added my Mom on her iPad, who is watching LO, to my account and I can see what he is doing during the day. The app syncs between users. It tracks tons of stuff too. My favorite thing is I can see how many oz he drinks at each feeding so I know around how much I need to pump while I am at work.

I haven't really checked many out but Similac has a free app that has been pretty helpful.  The downside is it doesn't sync between devices.

I was wondering how you added your mom on her iPad. Did she have to buy the app?

And I was referring to Baby connect.... That's what I use now. I'd love for my mom to be able to enter information in as well.
