I am currently working on a breastfeeding tracker for Garmin devices. It is already released a time ago, but I want to include a companion app for this app.

I used it with my first child, and it helped me greatly. After releasing the support has been amazing and I recently passed 1000 downloads :)

I am hoping to extend the functionality with more insights and helpful tips (double-checked with professionals) to help young parents with the beauty of breastfeeding their newborn children.

Don't underestimate the will of young children to do what is 'forbidden'. Especially when in puberty, they will find ways.

They are humans as well and can therefore think ;)

Stand up at around 6:15, no snoozing the alarm. Get a glass of water and some yoghurt, cereals, fruit or bread, at least something light and not too heavy because after that I run around 30 minutes with my dog. This is my exercise and the dog needed to walk anyway. I do this 5 times a week.

After that drink a cup of coffee, and another glass of water, after which I first go to work at around 7:30, where I start with reviews, testing changes, and get through email. Standup is at 9:15, when I get another cup of coffee. The rest of the day is just cruising along; coding some stuff, fixing bugs, having some meetings etc... Usual SWE stuff.

Having started early, I can finish early, which gives me time for cooking, which I find very important. Because I already had my exercise in the morning, evenings are for me, my family and friends.

Weekends are similar, except I wake whenever I naturally awake, so my body and mind can recover where necessary, Although most of the time I still am awake at around 7:00.

This routine works very well for me. I try to keep low on alcohol and caffeine, of which the first one is going very well, but the second one a little less since I had a child a few months ago. Oh well...

Author here. I made a simple small app for my wife to track breastfeedings and bottles on her Garmin smartwatch.

I deliberately made it simple without fluff. You have a baby in your hand while feeding, so the app needs to get out of the way :)

Happy to answer questions!
