Top 50 iPhone Apps for Moms
About a week after I began using my iPhone, I was in love. I had a calendar with me at all times, and I was able to stay on top of my family's schedule - even though there are six of us! I had email access while I was out, so I wasn't constantly playing catch up with PTO business in the evening. And then I discovered apps! With these programs, I could track my baby's feeding schedule, my family's illnesses, and my attempts at exercise. And there were apps that could help keep my children entertained and educated! My iPhone was quickly becoming a vital tool that made my busy mom life more manageable.
In January 2009 I began a website, The iPhone Mom, dedicated to helping moms find apps that could do the same for them. Since beginning the site, I've seen both the quantity and quality of useful apps for moms grow.
Babble.com asked me to put together a list of my Top 50 iPhone Apps for Moms. Here, in descending order, are my favorites and the ones I think you'll find most useful.

Baby Connect is an application designed to track your baby’s every move. From sleeping to eating to the endless diaper changes, you can note it all here. But the real magic in this app comes from the “Connect” feature, which allows you to share what your baby is doing with others-in real time. Or if you have a caregiver watching your child, they can share what’s going on with you. The information can be seen via the Baby Connect app or via their website baby-connect.com. Messages can be sent back and forth, photos can be shared, and the information appears quickly from the app to the web and vice versa. If you’re going to be away from your little one for extended periods of time and you’ve got someone committed to keeping you updated, this is a terrific way to do it.
