Baby Care Pro for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

New parents seem to be suckers for any morsel of insight into raising their newborns. But even the most info-hungry moms and dads would be hard-pressed to find any info they need in Baby Care Pro. The app itself is a good idea: bring together facts and milestones for different stages of infant development, along with tests for parents to check their child's progress.

Unfortunately, the program suffers from poor translation to english. Advice includes gems like "Five months old babies can reach for the toy they want with one of their hands, and can also grasp it, but only not to a crumb, often repeat a movement for several times," or "you should broaden their eye shot, respect their individuality, and don't care about them overly. In this way, you can train them good psychology quality of braveness, confidence, uncloudedness..."

Additionally, weights and lengths are given in metric units which aren't quite the standard in the U.S. (there's always next year!) 

The app includes a decent journaling feature for you to track important moments in your child's life, but frankly that feature alone doesn't warrant buying the app.
