Development, in plain language
Organ by organ, sense by sense, with size comparisons that aren’t only fruit. Illustrated, and quiet about the rare things until they matter.
Stage one · in the womb

A week is a long time in there. Each one gets its own short read: what is forming, what you might feel, and what is worth asking at your next appointment. Weeks 4 through 42 are covered, and every week you pass stays readable.

Iron steps up in the second trimester, so the targets do too. Log a meal, see the gap, get food ideas — iron, folate, DHA, calcium and vitamin D, without a shop full of supplements.
Keep the next one beside the week it belongs to, with the provider, the place and what to bring. A reminder if you want one, so it sits inside the pregnancy rather than in a separate calendar.
Part of each week is written for the person alongside you rather than the person pregnant: here’s what’s happening, here’s one thing that helps.

How the stage moves
The app opens here as soon as you give it a due date, and moves itself on to the birth stage from week 36 — earlier or later if you move it yourself.
The other two stages
babybub gives general information and a place to keep your own records. It is not a medical device and it does not diagnose anything. Always ring your midwife, child health nurse or GP if something worries you.
