How big is the baby?

Maker

👋🏼 Hello! My name is Amit, a soon-to-be Dad 🤞🏽🙂 We are expecting our first baby soon (Feb 2022), and like most first-time parents, we signed up for a bunch of pregnancy tracking apps that tell you how big your baby is each week - "Your baby is as big as a bunch of kale". That's a pretty boring and uninspiring visualization, I think. Yet, that's what most of these apps do. But, I wanted something different and better, like... #1 Daily Updates 👎🏽All the pregnancy apps I found provided only weekly updates. ✅ I was so excited about the baby that I wanted daily updates (the baby doesn't grow that much on a daily basis, but I could still make it interesting and fun by referencing different objects of similar sizes). #2 Fun, lively, and interesting updates 👎🏽The pictures these pregnancy apps referenced were drawings, or illustrations (mostly comparing babies to fruits and vegetables). ✅I wanted the updates to be a bit more fun and diverse with real life pictures of everyday objects that I could relate to. #3 Get updates as Text Messages 👎🏽 Most importantly, they were all apps I had to download. More notifications. More spam. More clutter. ✅ Instead of downloading another app, I wanted my wife and I to get a simple text message every morning telling us how big the baby was. 💬I couldn't find a service that would do this. So, I built it. My wife and I have been using How big is the baby SMS bot last couple months, and we love it. It's cute and fun. It's become a part of our morning routine - waking up, and then one of us asking - how big is the baby today? We just glance at the message, and smile (sometimes we even share the updates with our families and friends). It's a great way to start our day! 🚀Super excited to make this available to other expecting parents Over the last couple months, I have been gradually adding friends and family as users. I am excited to open "How big is the baby" service to more expecting parents (and their friends/families) to use. Try it Free for 10 days. No cc required. Upgrade for just $29/one-time fee for the entire pregnancy (weeks 13-40). No recurring subscription. If you're expecting a baby soon, or know a friend who is, I would love your support in spreading the word, and would appreciate any feedback/suggestions you may have.

@amit Thank you so much for your offer, you are very kind. If they like it, I have no doubt they will buy it. I know they are all sick of growing mangos and bunches of kale 😉
