Pros and cons of The Nursing Log app for iPhone and iPad

The Nursing Log app good for

It helps me a lot to keep track of how long the nursings last, how much time till the next one and when its time to switch sides. Totally recommended!
As soon as I got home from the hospital with my little one I went looking for a program that would track how long she was nursing. This is the kind of thing they seemed to ask at the dr offices. Anyway, this program is a great way to track when the little one is eating, how long between feedings, etc. I use it all the time and am thrilled I can now get it on something other than an iPad. My only criticism is that you cant make a note on the current feeding while you are in the middle of it and it would be nice to be able to repeat the note- I kept track of diapers here for a long time.
Finding this app very useful, love the simplicity and features it has, but wish there was a bottle or expressed breast milk (+amount) option instead of just L/R breast. For now I use notes, which is okay, but it would be better for deciding where to start feeding next if it was clearer which feeds came from where.
I love this app!! Its the best out of all breastfeeding apps.. I tried about 5 before I found this one and its my favorite!

Some bad moments

Basic log. Very useful for those 3 am feedings. The time since last nursing should be from the start not the end. I dont care when we finished, Im feeding every 3 hours from the start (if Im lucky). Would also be nice to be able to delete an entry. Other than that, its easy to use & very helpful.
This app is a pretty good app. However, the last time nurse should began from the last time you started nursing instead of when you finished. I like the fact that it allows you to switch sides while nursing and keeps track of that. The app was useful and was great considering it was free!
Helps give an idea of when to expect her to be hungry again. Love knowing how long shes been eating and how often and the history is great to see how her feedings have changed. Would love to see buttons to track wet and dirty diapers too (instead of adding it in the notes) as these are questions the doc asks.
I love this app, otherwise who could even remember the middle of the night feedings. I will definitely be recommending this app to my fellow nursing moms. Pros: one touch start stop pause and switching breasts Being able to add a feeding that you forgot Bring able to edit a feeding Notes appear under feeding Cons: When adding a feeding, sometimes the info doesnt save the first time you enter it
The update broke the note taking section. You cant view the note when your writing it up please fix. Wonderful app to use.
Good and basic! This app does just what you need. I prefer it to those that store information online because it doesnt need wi fi connection to work. Also nice because they are not constantly asking you to upgrade to a paid version. There are ads constantly across the bottom of the page but they dont pop up and need to be closed.
