Baby Buddy Alternatives

Baby Buddy reviews and mentions

• Baby Vault – A 100% offline, privacy-first PWA for new parents
  1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Feb 2026

  Looks great. I was a user of babybuddy[1] and one the pluses was that I could self-host and be in control + had an API. Now that last bit was a bit overkill.

  It had one feature that's maybe essential and that I'm missing here, and that is being able to share the app and data with your partner so both are in control of monitoring, maybe I'm overlooking it but I can imagine that's hard to integrate with a PWA that does not use accounts.

  One last thing: "no accounts", but filling in the email field is mandatory, i'd skip that.

  Nice job!

• Show HN: I made a privacy friendly and simple app to track my menstruation

  If you're up for self-hosting, there's BabyBuddy[0]. There's no first-party native app, but it is a decent web app and there's some third-party apps/integrations. And of course, multiple users is a priority. No affiliation, just a user :)

• I made a Home Assistant macropad with RGB back lighting and reactive keypresses

  I'm currently using it as an interface for Baby Buddy, which has a pretty great Home Assistant integration for tracking feedings, diaper changes, etc. for my newborn.

• How do you track your daily supply?
  1 project | /r/ExclusivelyPumping | 27 Mar 2023

  I set up a self hosted baby tracker app: (baby buddy)[https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy] it's our second baby so we have not been tracking any of the baby stats. I literally only use it to track my pumps.

• Track Breast Milk
  1 project | /r/grocy | 22 Feb 2023

  I’m using Baby Buddy, I built some ESPHome devices to trigger on button presses (from what others have posted as modifications). So when we change a diaper we hit the appropriate button (I mounted it above the changing table) and it fires off and logs a diaper change (wet, solid, etc). Then using the Baby Buddy HA integration I have an automation that fires every time the “Last Diaper” time is changed, it then makes an API call to Grocy and deducts one diaper from the stock. I did it this way since we use the Baby Buddy app via the web interface on our phones as well, so this way if you log a diaper from the changing table buttons or from your phone the diaper stock is correctly updated.

• Tracking App for newborns
  1 project | /r/parentsofmultiples | 11 Feb 2023
