Logging without obsessing

General parent support only — not a diagnosis or treatment plan. For medical worries, contact your midwife, health visitor, GP, NHS 111, or emergency services.

Choose a “good enough” level

Some nights need timers. Some nights need one tap. Match the detail to your energy — the app is built for both.

Gaps don’t ruin the story

Missed naps happen. Fill what you remember later, or leave it. A sparse honest log beats a fictional perfect one.

Ask what the log is for

If it’s for partner hand-off, keep it short. If it’s for your health visitor, bring the last few days. If it’s making you tense, pause and reset the rules with yourself.
