About the My Baby Now app

The My Baby Now app provides credible and practical advice, tips and tools to help you feed your baby - whether this is breast or formula feeding, mixed feeding or introducing solids.

It also helps you understand your baby's development week-by-week throughout your pregnancy and until your baby reaches 12 months, providing lots of ideas for play!

My Baby Now has been developed by experts at Deakin University, the University of Sydney and RMIT University. It's information you can trust.

Activities in the app

The My Baby Now app has a collection of quizzes, tools and calculators under 'Activities'. These tools are developed based on an evidenced based approach within the INFANT program to promote healthy eating and active play from the start of life developed by experts at Deakin University, Australia. The BMI calculator is developed based on the Clinical Practice Guidelines for the management of overweight and obesity in adults, adolescents and children in Australia. The reference to this tool can be found here.
