How to Cancel Medela Family

I discovered this app when I started pumping after breastfeeding my little one was established, and it made a world of difference! Before the app I was tracking the same stats in the Notes app on iPhone but would miss feedings is diaper changes. The app makes tracking breastfeeding, pumping, diaper changes and sleeping easy with just one tap. I like that I’m able to track multiple things at once. For example, if you would like to pump while your little one is sleeping, you can do so. Having lactation consultants helped me when I had problems with plugged ducts. The quirk that bothers me is that I liked to feed or pump one breast at a time, but the app auto selects both breasts if you manually enter your pump/feeding session. That’s not enough for me to give less than five stars! Definitely recommend for new moms even if you have a different pump system.

I love the app because for one, it’s free. Although I am an exclusive pumper, i love the idea of having a lactation consultant available 24/7. Other apps I’ve used, after a few days, you have to pay for access to certain things and I think with being a new parent or having a newborn, it’s already costly so to add on to that isn’t worth it. The app is organized and easy to navigate. I love that it gives the average and total amount of how much I pump, how much my child eats and sleeps. Would definitely recommend this app to other new parents, especially those who use the medela breastfeeding brand products.

I love this app, and all of the features it has. You can track weight, height, breast feeding, bottles, diapers and sleep! It’s so intuitive and easy to use. I only wish it would let you track solids when you start them. I tried 3 apps when we brought our baby home, and this one really resonated with us. My husband and I both use it on our phones so that if one of us is watching him, we know how he’s doing during the day, or if one is watching and the other takes over, we know when the next time he needs to eat/ sleep is. Its great.

We love this app. It is very easy to use and great when both of us track so the other knows the progress. A couple of suggested changes. Make dual accounts. Right now we just login in as both but dual shared accounts would allow tracking of who entered what. Not that big of a deal but we could maybe add grandparents in the future. I don’t like how the measurements preferences allow for either standard or metric. Split it up. Our baby’s weight is in standard but the amount of supplemental formula or breastmilk is in milliliters. We have to log as ounces and just put the milliliters in the notes. Also weight needs greater break down. A baby at 8lbs 11oz dropping in weight to 7lbs 6 oz is a big deal but the app only allows for .25oz increments. We love the warnings when the app realized the amount of feedings were dropping baby weight and weight loss suggested contacting our doctor.

Overall helpful for tracking feedings. Enjoy the timer option-easer than just trying to remember everything. Suggestions for improvement would be keeping the option bar at the bottom in any screen. For example, before I start breastfeeding I want to check my last session to see how long baby was on each side. Then, I wish I could just select “tracking” at the bottom instead of having to back out of two screens before getting that option. It doesn’t seem like a lot until you have a baby screaming to be fed. Also wish if we did a pump or bottle session they would all show up together displayed the way the breastfeeding sessions are.
