Self-hosted, private by default
The complete guide to your growing baby.
Baby Atlas keeps the whole of your pregnancy in one calm place: what is happening this week, the appointments you need to remember, and the notes you want to keep. It runs on a server you control.
- A week-by-week guide, written in plain language
- One place for appointments, notes and measurements
- Your own server. No analytics, no advertising
Setting up takes a couple of minutes. Every question after the first one can be skipped and answered later.
Week by week
Forty weeks, one at a time
Each week has a short read: what is commonly happening, what tends to be scheduled, and what people often want to ask about. Every article shows who reviewed it and when.
- 8First trimester
Early appointments and what they are for
What tends to be booked in these weeks, what each appointment covers, and the questions worth writing down before you go.
- 20Second trimester
The mid-pregnancy scan
What the scan looks at and how long it usually takes, so you know what to expect from the appointment itself.
- 28Third trimester
Movement patterns and what to note
How to keep a record of movements in the way your own care team has asked you to, and where to keep their number.
- 36Third trimester
Getting things ready
A checklist you can adapt: what to pack, who to tell, and the decisions worth making before you are tired.
Size comparisons are approximate and meant to be playful. Real measurements vary widely and are only meaningful when taken by your care team.
Keep track
Somewhere to put everything
Nothing here is compulsory and nothing is scored. Baby Atlas records what you enter and shows it back to you — it does not interpret it, and it does not tell you how you are doing.
How you are feeling
Record a symptom and how strong it was. Baby Atlas keeps the record and never tells you what it means.
Appointments
What is booked, where it is, and the questions you wanted to ask — written down before you are sitting in the room.
A journal
Write as much or as little as you like. Entries save as you type, so nothing is lost to a closed tab.
Checklists
Adaptable lists for each stage. Tick things off, add your own, ignore the ones that are not for you.
Everyday trackers
Water, vitamins, weight, movements. All optional, and every one can be hidden if you would rather not see it.
Documents
Scan results and letters kept alongside the appointment they came from, rather than in a folder on a phone.
What it looks like
One purpose per screen
No dashboard of competing widgets. Each screen does one thing, in a readable size, with the important action obvious and everything else out of the way.
Illustrations of three screens. The details shown are examples, not real records.
Partner mode
Share the parts you want to share
Invite a partner, a family member or a friend, and pick exactly what they can see. Anything you have not shared is refused by the server, not merely hidden from their screen.
You can change what someone can see at any time, or remove their access entirely. They get their own account and their own password; nothing is shared through a link that anyone with the address could open.
An example invitation
This is what you would be choosing when you invite someone.

Private by design
Your pregnancy is not a data set
Pregnancy apps have a poor record here. Baby Atlas is built the other way round: the software is self-hosted, so there is no business model that depends on knowing anything about you.
It runs on your server
There is no Baby Atlas company holding your records. The installation you sign in to is the only place your data exists.
Nothing is measuring you
No analytics, no advertising, no third-party scripts. The only cookie is the one that keeps you signed in.
It works without signal
Pages you have read stay readable offline, and anything you write is kept on your device until it can be sent.
Take it with you
Export everything you have entered whenever you want, in a format other software can read. Delete it just as easily.
The privacy page lists exactly what is stored, what is never written to a log, and who can see what.
Start whenever you are ready
You only need an email address and a due date — and if you do not know your due date, Baby Atlas can work it out from the date you do know.
