1. Does Baby Brain App work on the iPod Touch as well as the iPhone?
Yes. Baby Brain is for the iPod Touch as well as the iPhone.

2. Can I add more than one baby?
Yes! You can add as many babies as you like. To add a baby, just go to "My Babies" and tap the "plus" sign in the upper right hand corner.

3. Can I share my baby's data with others, or print it out?
You can send your baby's daily, weekly, or monthly data to anyone you would like via email. Just tap the "Share" icon in the upper right hand corner. Currently, it is not possible to print directly from an iPhone application. However, you can certainly print the email version of your baby's data.

4. Can I see how much total sleep my baby is getting per day?
Baby Brain keeps a running tab of the total hours your baby has slept each day. You can also view previous days, weeks, or months to see how long your baby is sleeping per day over any time period.

5. Why does the Share feature only work some of the time?
There is an issue with the iPhone which causes occasional problems with our Share feature. If you have an issue, we recommend simply trying again. Unfortunately this problem is out of our hands, though the issue will be resolved soon when Apple releases a fix.

6. Will this app track bottles as well as breastfeeding?
The app is designed for breastfeeding AND bottle feeding parents. It also accommodates parents who use both methods. For breastfeeding, you can log the feeding start time and start side with just a tap. If you want to time the feeding, you can easily do this using the breastfeeding timer while you check email, browse the internet, or use other functions on your phone! You can also log bottle feedings in a matter of seconds.

7. What does "last: left" mean?
"Last: left" means you used the left boob "last" during the prior breastfeeding. In other words, you started feeding on the right side and finished on the left.

8. When I look at the "month" view, how is the month calculated?
Baby Brain calculates weeks and months based on your baby's birthday. So "Month 1" is the first 30 days of your baby's life (not the calendar month). It's just like how you respond when asked about the age of your baby. "Month 5" in Baby Brain is just what you mean when you say "He's 5 months old."

9. Does Baby Brain have a sleep timer?
Yes. Just tap "Add Sleep" when your baby goes down. While your baby is sleeping, you can quickly view how long he's been asleep. When she wakes up, edit the nap and it will default to the current time as "time up."

10. Is it possible to delete a logged event (sleep, feeding, diaper)?
Our goal is to keep Baby Brain simple to use. So although you can't "delete" an item, you can achieve the same result by "editing" an item. Simply tap on the item (sleep, feeding, diaper) and update the time so it becomes the next item. Since you will have another event to log again soon, this should work fine. (And we may add "Delete" functionality in future versions, if we can do so without cluttering up the interface.)

11. Can you log medicine administered or other information?
While there isn't (yet) a separate category for medicine, it is easy to add information such as medicine given in the Notes field. When you log a feeding, diaper, or sleep, you can include a note about the amount of medicine given, or any other detailed information you may wish to record.

12. Why does the app ask me for a bottle amount during the set up?
To make future bottle entries easier, Baby Brain will remember a bottle amount for your child(ren.) You can go back and edit the bottle amount later as your baby's feeding amount increases.

13. The options for diaper are "pee" or "poo." What if it is both?
After two years of changing diapers, I've found that "poos" just about always contain a "pee" as well. :) So use "Poo" to record both.

14. Will Baby Brain have additional features in the future?
YES! We have some great ideas for additional functionality, but we really want to hear from you. Tell us exactly what you need, and we'll do our very best to build it.
