The three answers you need most
Time since the last feed, how long the baby has been awake and the last diaper, right at the top of Today.
A newborn tracker for the first weeks at home
The first weeks are a blur of feeds, naps and diapers. Ella keeps them in one shared journal, so you always know when the last feed was, even at 3 a.m.

Quick answer
Is this normal for a newborn?
- Most newborn surprises are normal: sneezing, hiccups, noisy breathing, startles, spots and peeling skin.
- Breathing pauses of up to 10 seconds in sleep are normal if your baby stays comfortable and their color does not change.
- Call your local emergency number if your baby is working hard to breathe or is very hard to wake. Not interested in feeding: get medical advice now.
- If you think something is seriously wrong, get help now. If something small worries you, ask your midwife or doctor.

Read the full guideNewborn tracker: what it does
Everything in a day
Nursing with both sides, bottles, pumping, diapers, sleep, tummy time, solids, milestones, weight, length, head circumference, temperature and notes.
Made for one hand
Quick buttons stay where your thumb expects them, and the Android widget logs a feed or a diaper without opening the app.
Growth over time
Log weight, length and head circumference and see them on WHO growth charts, with corrected age for babies born early.
The first days home: what to log
Newborn days are made of small repeated moments: a feed, a diaper, a nap, again. Ella makes each one a single tap and keeps the three answers you need most at the top of Today: time since the last feed, awake time and the last diaper. If the hospital sent you home with feeds and diapers on paper, carry on in Ella, or use the printable log for the first night and switch when you are settled.
Everything else, when you need it
Beyond the basics, Ella keeps tummy time, solids, milestones, temperature and notes. Add weight, length and head circumference whenever you measure them; they appear on WHO growth charts, with corrected age for babies born early.
Bringing it to check-ups
Before a check-up, open Charts, or create a clear PDF summary of recent days on Android. It lists feeds, diapers, sleep and any measurements you added, so the conversation starts from facts rather than memory. Android can also export the journal as a CSV file.
When family comes to help
Grandparents or friends who come for the first weeks can join with a link and log what they do, so you get back to a journal that already knows what happened while you slept.
Setting up in a minute
Open Ella in the browser, add your baby's name and, if you like, a birth date, and start logging without an account. Before you invite family or change phones, open Family & settings and choose Save your journal to link it with Google or an email address, then use that account on the other device.
How to start tracking your newborn
Open Ella in any browser, add your baby and start logging. No account needed to begin.
Save the journal with an email address or Google, and invite your partner.
On Android, add the Ella widget to your home screen.
Log feeds, sleep and diapers as they happen, and check Today whenever you need an answer.
Other ways to track
Questions parents ask
When should I start tracking?
Whenever it helps. Many parents start in the first days home, when feeds and diapers come fast.
Is Ella a medical app?
No. Ella records what you log and shows it back. For medical questions, talk to your pediatrician.
Can I track twins?
Yes. Both babies live in one journal, and you switch between them at the top of Today.
Can I move from another baby tracker?
Ella does not import other apps yet. Most parents simply start fresh; the Today screen is useful from the first entry.
Which languages does Ella speak?
Ella speaks 14 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Hebrew, Arabic, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Hindi, Urdu and Bengali, and each family member picks their own. On Android and the web you can also log by voice in your language when your phone or browser supports speech recognition, and you confirm what Ella heard before anything is saved.
