				Tracking input and output metrics in the
hospital seems to be standard procedure these days, at least it was for us
when we had our girls.

We were never required or had a need to officially track anything with
either child.

Hi,

I never tracked any of this information unless it had been requested by a
doctor.  Unless there's an issue with feeding it's not necessary to do so.
But if I needed to I'd have used a memo app on my phone or dictated it into
notes, or used notepad if my windows pc was closest.  the tracking apps for
such things are really not helpful for us but might be for your doctor if
there are fraphs etc.

Hello Everyone,

Allison and I realize that we need to be able to log and track several
important metrics, such as diapers and feeding. Of course, in our new-born
care class, the instructor described writing this information into a log,
which obviously does nothing for us.

We wish to be able to log and effectively use this information in a way that
works best for us, while reasonably accommodating the needs of sighted
hospital staff.

I tried the tracking tools found in the Baby Connect and My Baby Today iOS
apps, but found them inaccessible.

I would be interested in learning how all of you have tracked critical
baby-related metrics in an accessible manner.

Thanks,

Darrell
