  1. [R10] WeMoms 5/5 · US Wonderful App: I love this App! I am a first-time mom, and I always look forward to learning more about the growth and development of my baby girl from other moms. The community is also a wonderful resource to use to ask questions and gain knowledge.
  2. [R12] WeMoms 5/5 · US Love this app: This app helped me get through my pregnancy with constant love and support from other moms.
  3. [R17] WeMoms 1/5 · GB Not good: Very inaccurate with sizing etc, compared to multiple other apps this is the only one saying baby is much smaller than real size
  4. [R21] WeMoms 5/5 · US Pregnancy journey: I’ve been on this app through 3 pregnancies and the first time I had a loss this app has a group for loss and I would recommend staying on bc so many moms can relate and help you work through emotions. It’s good to be understood and able to vent when you can’t talk to the ppl around you. During pregnancy you see 3d image of baby and you get facts about different pregnancy concer
  5. [R1] WeMoms 2/5 · US Not a huge fan: I really wanted to love this app but there are so many long ads to navigate through before you can access any free content. It’s very annoying if you just want to check something quickly.
  6. [R3] WeMoms 1/5 · US Deleting: I don’t want the app anymore because everyone I open it there’s an ad. Then once the ad goes away, the app it self says to scratch the heart because I won something.
  7. [R7] WeMoms 1/5 · US Ads make it unusable: I used this app for my first pregnancy and really liked it. I paid for a year to get rid of the ads. I’m pregnant again with #2 and went back to it but there are way more ads and it makes the app unusable. Is far as I can tell, you can’t pay for the year any more it’s $1/week which is wild.
  8. [R9] WeMoms 1/5 · US Ads: I can’t even get past the ads to get back on the app.
  9. [R18] WeMoms 5/5 · US Best app for pregnancy: This is my favorite app for tracking pregnancy. I don’t see how anyone could hate the app honestly.
