So the first thoughts I remember having were all related to how to build a proper baby, something which none of the baby apps out there seem to address.

It still hasn’t sunk in 100%. Yes, Camille is showing but she’s not showing a basketball yet. Not even a football. So, visually, I’m not reminded of our little miracle 100% of the time. Some of the time it just seems like business as usual. And, to some degree, it is. For the last 10 …

From the pregnancy tracking app to the OB/GYN office, it seems there is a common theme regarding prenatal nutrition: Thou shalt have 300 extra calories per day, apparently.
