"I love the software – it’s easy to use and fun, I now write down all the little developments and funny incidents, as well as the major milestones, so create a great memory treasure for the future"
Not Even a Bag of Sugar blog:
"I love how easy it is to enter information on Baby Milestones and its pretty software too.
The software is pretty impressive I think. You can use this software for trying to conceive and it helps chart your most fertile times and then you can enter a pregnancy, and use it to chart your pregnancy. The instructions that I read explain what to do if your pregnancy ends, in a very sensitive manner, and it appears this has been well thought out. You can easily chart twins and more on the software too, which I think is great, and additional new babies too.
Another thing I love about it is that you can use it as an appointment diary, which is really helpful for parents who have a young person who has a lot of appointments. I really love that you can store all your baby photos and videos, you have everything all in one place rather than files of this and files for that and information written here there and everywhere!
Overall I think this is a lovely piece of software, it costs £14.99 and considering you can use it right from when you start to try to conceive until the baby is 5 and you can use it for more than one child, I think its a worthwhile investment."
The gingerbread house blog:
"baby milestones is aimed at modern mums and dads who not only love to be informed about their baby's development, but also relish looking back on all the baby memories you’ll collect as your children grow.
The software is secure as all the information is stored on your own computer, contains expert information by family doctors and comes with a handy development reminder tab which prompts you to update milestones...I enjoy using and updating it "
Gemma, Always A Mummy blog:
"I know everyone is not computer literate but for this software it really does not matter...Trust me it's worth it...to record every milestone your child makes. It's a great memory"
Mummys Cheeky Monkey blog:
"You don’t have to be an IT Guru or technically minded to operate this software, the user interface is simple, easy to navigate and pretty much self explanatory.
Overall this software is fun, user friendly, informative and an absolute must for new parents and experienced parents alike. At £14.99 baby milestones is a complete bargain and one that I would wholly recommend purchasing."
Mum of Six blog:
"This software is user friendly, fun to use, and does everything you can imagine to record events you don't want to lose or forget.
I think every mum/dad-to-be should know about this software from trying to conceive to have the opportunity to not forget a single moment of their journey."
Mummy Days blog says:
"It's like a memory box/baby record book rolled into one, and all at your fingertips on your computer!
The thing I love about it is that it's not just for your baby, you can add the profiles of your older children too!
This really is a fab idea, and a very cool piece of software to have! It's very cute to look at and is really easy to use. At just £14.99 it's a steal!"
Clare and Mark, parents of Esme:
"There are lots of books to guide you in bringing up a baby, but whilst books and websites help you solve specific problems, this software puts its advice in context. You can record your child's progress, health checks and medical matters, but Baby Milestones will also gently remind you of other things to think about around that time. In the first few weeks of our baby's development, we've found it a very useful helping hand, and good fun too. It feels like we're creating a very special record to look back on and to show Esme when she's older"
Adele and Tom, parents of Beth:
"This is fantastic. We've been using it to help us log our daughter's first few months. Being new parents is so hectic it's great to have one place to go to for reliable information and for storing everything from appointment dates to video clips. The appropriate 'drip feeding' of developmental and medical info, for us, has meant we only have to absorb and worry about a few things at a time rather than feeling overwhelmed"
Sara, mum of Toby, says *:
"I am not very tech savvy and when I realised it was computer software I was a little apprehensive. However – I was pleasantly surprised; it was very easy to install, get registered and get started with the program.
I entered Toby’s detail into the software and it started to let me know what I could be expecting from him at his age – now, you might be thinking at this point 'pushy parent' but that was not the case at all – it simply outlined what he may start to do and gives you an idea of what you can do at each stage to support his development.
You can keep a record of your child’s development which I’m sure will be a really interesting keepsake (particularly if you are not very good at keeping a diary like me!)
You can use the software as frequently or infrequently as you want – it is not time consuming and is actually quicker and more reassuring than reading different books, searching on the internet or just having no idea what's going on!
Overall I really like the software and would recommend it to other parents.

LittleMummy.com says *:
"It's a fab computer based media journal that helps you to keeps all your child related resources together in one place and record your parenting journey from embryo till 5 – and all at a very reasonable price. I like it!"
Howard's review on the New Mummy's Tips blog says *:
"The easiest way to describe it is a combination of baby manual and baby book but lasting the life of your child!...it saves using that not so photographic memory to remember what you should be looking out for when from that book you read 3 months ago!"
Carolin's review on the New Mummy's Tips blog says *:
"What I really love about the software is that all the information provided is by medical experts, so you can be sure you don't trust the "knowledge" of wannabe-experts. Another brilliant feature is the calendar that enables you to keep track of all your appointments and also allows you to update the different stages of pregnancy with your own media...I am really happy we are using this software"
Sarah, a mum of one, says on BabyWorld *:
"I wish I'd had this when I was pregnant and in the early days! It's so easy to use and feels so up to the minute, who needs baby books?...Definitely a must for an expectant Mum. Also a great idea for a gift"
Joanne, a mother of 3, says *:
"This is a wonderful product ...I love it and think it's so worth the price...A must for any busy mum"
Becky at Babybudgeting.co.uk says *:
"it's a brilliant multimedia memory box and parenting guide. I found it very easy to use and really easy to do little bits and pop back. Wonderful, a really top new budget baby gift!"
The Domesticgoddesque blog, written by a mum of 2, says *:
"I am far from the most techno savvy person, but I'm so very pleased that I tried this. It's very easy to use, and pretty much self-explanatory, so you don't have to spend ages working out how to add your personal information...You can just tell it was carefully thought through by the two doctors and mothers behind it. It's a Baby Record Book, a diary, a medical dictionary all rolled into one...it's not just a bargain, it's a steal."
Mumsbabymagazine.com says that *:
