Unfortunately for many new parents, babies don't come with instruction manuals, but there are plenty of apps for moms to make transitioning into this new part of their lives a little bit easier. One such app is Bump 2 Breast, created by Chloe Owens after the birth of her own daughter. There are a ton of websites, networks, forums and apps for all things related to baby care, but Owens found that it was difficult to come across all the relevant information in one place, and find advice that actually works.
The app is a comprehensive guide to everything before and after birth, from labor to pain relief, breastfeeding and caring for a new child. Owens' findings are self-researched and sourced from other mothers. She notes: "We are not doctors or anything like that but it's best sometimes to come straight from a mum."
