A newborn tracker for the first weeks at home

The first weeks, one tap at a time

Newborn days are made of small repeated moments: a feed, a diaper, a nap, again. Ella turns each one into a tap and puts the three answers you need most at the top of the screen: time since the last feed, awake time and the last diaper.

Everything else, when you need it

Beyond the basics, Ella keeps tummy time, solids and first foods, milestones, weight, length, head circumference, temperature and notes. Growth measurements appear on WHO growth charts, with corrected age for babies born early.

Bringing it to check-ups

On Android, Ella creates a clear PDF summary of recent days to bring to a check-up, and exports the journal as a CSV file. Ella describes what you recorded; your pediatrician is the one to advise on it.

The first day home

Open Ella in a browser, add your baby and log the first feed. That is the whole setup. Save the journal with an e-mail address or Google when you are ready to invite your partner.

The first week

Feeds and diapers come fast in the first week. The three answers at the top of Today carry you through the nights, and the 24-hour view shows how the days are taking shape.

The first check-up

Before a check-up, open Charts or create a PDF summary on Android. It lists feeds, diapers, sleep and any measurements you added, so the conversation starts from facts rather than memory.

Twins and siblings

Two babies? Keep both in one journal and switch between them with a tap. Each baby has their own timeline, charts and counters.

Coming home from the hospital

Hospital staff often write feeds and diapers on paper. Carry on at home with Ella, or use the printable log for the first night and switch when you are settled.

Growth at your own pace

Add weight, length and head circumference whenever you measure them. The WHO charts use corrected age for babies born early, calculated on the phone.

What to log in the first days

Feeds, diapers and sleep are the three things most parents keep track of in the first weeks. Ella keeps each one a single tap, so you can log them without thinking and look back only when you want to.

Setting up in a minute

Open Ella in a browser, add the baby's name and, if you like, the birth date and due date. That is all it takes to start; everything else can wait until you have a free hand.

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.
