And Pregnancy+ already knows that pregnancy can be quite the emotional experience. So, the built-in journal feature is meant to encourage you to release pent-up frustrations in a healthy way.

This pregnancy app is the ultimate pregnancy PDA. It helps keep you on top of your personal health with a daily log of your appointments. It’ll alert you when they’re coming up so you never have to miss a checkup.
Additionally, Glow Nature gives you tips on prenatal vitamins, exercises and other healthy habits for pregnant women to adopt. It also keeps track of your symptoms to keep your health in-check. And if you need daily reminders about nutrition, exercise and vitamins, they’ve got you covered too.
On top of all this, there is also a community support feature that helps connect future moms. You knokw, for when you just need someone who understands.
This app tracks your baby’s weekly size and compares it to everyday objects, like apples. It seems a little silly, but it does help give you a better perspective on the real size of your baby.
Baby Bump Pregnancy Pro also allows you to connect with your fellow future mamas through the easy to use forum. You can dish about all the struggles and joy pregnancy brings here if Glow Nurture doesn’t work out for you.

I’m Expecting is all about community sharing. The purpose of this app is to exchange the experiences of bringing life into the world. On it, you can see guides, videos and other informational resources.
It also allows you to connect with other soon-to-be moms for any tips and advice. Like the other apps, I’m Expecting allows you to track your due date and gives you weekly updates.
And for those Insta famous mamas-to-be, this pregnancy app also includes a photo feature to help you keep track of your growing baby bump.
Pregnancy can be one of the scariest and most exciting times in a woman’s life. Hopefully, some of these apps can help add to the joy and distract from the stress.
