Fatherhood doesn't come with a manual. So we built one. Week-by-week from first trimester to first year — free, no ads, built for dads. DadKit is the field guide for dads. Trying to conceive, pregnancy, and the first five years – covered start to finish. DadKit tells you what's happening, gives you tools to actually use, and keeps track of the moments that matter. I'm Chace. I built DadKit while my wife was pregnant with our first because every pregnancy app I downloaded was built for her — which makes sense, she was doing the hard part — but there was nothing for the person standing next to her trying to figure out what was actually happening. PREGNANCY • Contraction timer: The 5-1-1 guideline is built in, so you'll know when it's time to go. • Kick counter: Count movements in the third trimester. Yes, you need to do this. • Safety lookup: Food, medication, activity. Search it before you buy it. This is for the 8pm grocery aisle moment. • Symptom log: Track how she's feeling and save questions before they evaporate by Thursday. • Weekly updates: What's happening, written for you. Not the shared journey. Your actual job. • Appointment timeline: What happens at the 20-week scan, and whether you're supposed to be there. • Birth plan: One page covering pain relief, who's in the room, delivery preferences. Export it, print it, done. AFTER THE BABY Content continues through year five, with something new every month. • Feeding log: Left, right, bottle, or pump. Two taps, built for one hand at 3am. • Diaper log: You'll understand why this matters around week two. • "Is this normal?": Every month, the things dads Google that turn out to be fine. • Newborn safety: Safe sleep, car seats, fevers, when to call the pediatrician. • Developmental milestones: Month by month through year five, what's happening and what's next. • Pediatric appointments: What each visit covers and which vaccines are due, all the way through. FREE. PERMANENTLY. • Contraction timer, kick counter, feeding log, diaper log, safety lookup, symptom log, newborn safety. The tools you need shouldn't cost anything. DADKIT+ • Journal: Weekly prompts through pregnancy, monthly after. The moments you'll want in ten years, written down now. • Full article library: every trimester and topic • Appointment prep: questions to ask and what results mean • Partner check-ins: one question each, once a week • Growth tracking: across scans • Kick counter and contraction history: trends over time • Feeding analytics: intervals, counts, and what's normal for your baby • Baby names: swipe, save, share. She'll veto most of them. • All six size comparison packs: for the weekly updates • Full symptom log history: beyond seven days DadKit was built for dads. If you're the partner reading this and deciding whether to send it to him, send it. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

What's New in Version 2.4 The feeding and diaper log got a full overhaul, and a handful of things that weren't working right got fixed. Revamped feeding log Set your feeding method once — breastfeeding, bottle, or both — and every log button in the app updates to match. Left/right/both for breast. Ounce chips for bottle. No more tapping past options that don't apply. The edit form now respects your setting too. Diaper log improvements Wet and dirty details are now clearly separated — pee amount is labeled for pee, poop color/texture/amount are labeled for poop, with a visible divider when logging both. No more guessing which field is which. Cluster feeding nudge Three or more feeds in two hours? The app notices and puts up a short message. Day and night versions. It knows the difference. Newborn appointments If you've logged a birth date, the Appointments page now shows the AAP pediatric well-child schedule — the actual baby visits — instead of the prenatal timeline. Newborn visit, 2-month shots, 6-month, all the way through. "A visit passed" prompts now permanently dismiss when you skip them. Bug fixes - Horizontal scroll in the log sheet is locked - The time picker no longer stretches edge-to-edge - iOS input zoom is fixed across the app - Growth tracking weights log in pounds and ounces - The age display reads "6 days old" for the first week, not "0 weeks old"
