This is my fave pregnancy and baby app ever. There are lots of groups to help with your stage of having a baby. I have made some friends for life on there who are sharing my motherhood journey.
The only thing to be careful of is trolls, but they are everywhere on social media. - Strengths:

I have used this app for 4 years now with 3 babys and love looking at the updates about. It gives you weekly updates of how baby is growing the size etc although it could be a bit better it's still very informative. It can also be used after baby is born. -

This app is brilliant for explaining the different stages of pregnancy, how your baby is progressing and guiding you about foods you can eat with healthy alternatives. You can also take pictures of your little bump and track how your body changes each week. -

Would enjoy a calender view option on this but the set up of having each week and then having a day by day story or article is good. Contains a lot of US articles which are not necessarily useful for UK mums. the forum is very glitcy in the app and therefore i limit its use. - Strengths:

I love the way this app shows you pictures of your babys development for that week and has different sections for dad, pregnancy symptoms. The birth club is also a great resource to alleviate any concerns you might have and read information from women going through the same concerns as you or even just experiencing the same happy moments! The search function on the home page is great also and usually any questions I have have already been answered which is very reassuring. The only downside is the calender/homepage has too many articles too read and I struggle to find the time to read them all but feel like I might miss important information if I don't. - Strengths:

A wonderful app, the weekly bump pics you can take I find are the easiest and nicest photos. There is an outline of your pregnant body to line up for the best photo opportunity also you can add words and pictures of the fruit or vege size of the bubba.
The weekly note of your pregnancy which pops up to remind you is the best out of the other apps I use, the information is good practical advice and reassuring.
Love it. Recommend to all.

Loved using this app while I was pregnant it updates you every week on how your little one is developing and how big they would be at that stage. Also has interesting articles to read and different forums to read through and discuss things with other moms. Even now they send me e-mails every week to tell me what my baby should start to do. -

This app was fantastic while I was pregnant. It gives you daily information about how your baby is growing and what to expect at different stages. It also has a birth club in which you are in a group with people who are due in the same month as you . Then users can post questions which you can see and answer. Anything you are wondering will be on there somewhere! - Strengths:

I am finding this app really informative during my pregnancy, I get updates each week with interesting facts, videos and articles. It helps with what things you will need, baby names and lots more. One thing I'm not so keen on is the forum integration as I found it quite laggy and most of the time I would have to use my browser to make full use. I have not used the forum for a while now so this may have been sorted. - Strengths:

Love the daily tips and articles that tie in with how far you are through your own pregnancy. Week by week babies development, interesting to read. Terminology is all in American though which is a little misleading to me using it in England. - Strengths:

I loved this app when pregnant and still do. It is so informative and full of support. It has both a serious and fun side. With opportunities to talk to parents with similar interests , questions and experiences. It guides you through your pregnancy and continues to after birth. Perfect to use when a question pops into your head at 4am ?. - Strengths:

I downloaded the app soon as I found out I was pregnant as I've heard good things about it. I love how it tells you details of the pregnancy week you are on. Later on in the pregnancy I'm sure the contraction timer would be handy as well.
One thing I love about this app ahead of others is the ability to take a "bumpie" it's a great idea and I've taken a good few now! - Strengths:
