The Bump

Two stars bc I love the weekly video updates and fruit comparisons with baby The community is literally cyber bullying if you disagree with someone and the bump doesnt really do anything about it even when u report it more than once I recommend using an app like nurture where the community is more positive and welcoming The forum from bump really ruined it for me Im a first time mum to be and really wanted to benefit from the knowledge of different forums I absolutely do not recommend the community here        No way Jose for this app

I loved this when I was pregnant But now Im pregnant again and it wont let me add the second baby        I did love this app

I havent even been able to use the ap because every time I put in my info the ap crashes Would be nice to actually see what the ap has to offer     Constant Crashing

Not sure the purpose of this app I wanted to use it as a way to keep track of my cycle and I cant find the darn calendar to do so You would think the calendar option at bottom would do this but it just list steps 1 Take test 2 Tell your partner Really a worthless app in my opinion May be more useful if you are actually pregnant Will be deleting my account     Terrible

This app is the only app Ive been using consistently since the first trimester Absolutely love the weekly updates It has everything a mother needs to know                 Love the app

The community forum is by far the rudest and pettiest set of woman ever If this is suppose to be a place for support then you all have failed So many rude comments and bad attitudes Deleting the app today Which stinks because the weekly info is great and love seeing birth announcements but hate seeing such much drama every time I log on Would not recommend this to any pregnant woman We have enough stress to deal with     Rude

This app is great if you are aware you are in a public forum with lots of other women Everyones opinions and experiences are going to be different The word bully gets thrown around like confetti if someone disagrees with you or gives their honest opinion If you ask a question you are going to get very honest answers and not everyone can handle that This is not the place to go to have your hand patted and every whim satisfied New users are strongly advised to take the 72 hour waiting period and look around and learn their audience and get to know how the board they are interested in works Jumping in and blatantly disregarding the flow of the community will not give you a warm welcome I will say that the new administration of the bump is severely lacking You are not allowed to criticize the bump in anyway on any of the forums it will get you banned or a warning They are quick with the warnings and the bans if the word bully starts getting thrown around Its incredibly frustrating because they dont often stick to their own criteria for resolving conflict and will not entertain discussion There used to be mod for each board to facilitate all of this but now its very impersonal and often times the wrong people get banned because the bump admins dont know whats actually going on Its a good place if you are serious about being part of a group and want to contribute to an online community It is not the place to go if you are going to use it as your own personal Google or not participate in any way except to get attention           Great if you are an adult

I really want to love this app However the fact tags we cant go back and make edits is beyond frustrating There is no reason why this should be an issue        Frustrated

Would be a good app but cant use the calendar If you try to check anything off you get errors Ive deleted and downloaded again no fix     Calendar

It has a lot of good info but the fact that Ive had the app for a week and its still telling me I cant participate in the community is annoying Reading other reviews and and group convos they seem to have so many rules its probably not even worth it Im sure I will be deleting this soon     Annoying

Thats it Gosh other pregnancy apps blow this one away Even Babycenter has a better one and its not that great either And my baby isnt a She why cant I add my babys gender to your app So annoying Just say Baby dont use a pronoun if you wont let us customize Ovia Pregnancy is def my favorite app for Pregnancy     Least Favorite

I cant find them in there anymore Also what happens when Im pregnant with my next child Is this going to erase all my previous entries for my first child I would like to compare notes I used this app daily with the first and took a LOT of notes UPDATE 31615 just as The Bump fixes one thing with this app they mess up with other things All of my notes are messed up and when I try to edit to correct entries some oops message pops up about adding a date that is within my pregnancy even though it IS a date within that pregnancy Also this app doesnt allow you to keep the actual due date which is aligned with your timeline and add my babys actual birthdate Its one or the other So if you change your due date to your babys actual birth date then it will shift the entire timeline as if you actually carried to term and make all of your timeline entries off Im glad they finally made it where we can add multiple pregnancies but theres still a lot of work that needs to be done with this app UPDATE 71215 All of my previous entries from my first pregnancy pictures and diary entries are ALL GONE Sad This is the one app I used and now everything is gone Delete     Dont like this update lost all my weekly pictures

Cant even open the app it closes out on me ever time     Horrible

Horrible group of women to turn too for support in this app They are mean and rude and have no respect for FTM A bunch of lazy bored bullies if you ask me     TERRIBLE

Ive tried for 3 months to login but their forgot password on both their app and mobile site doesnt work Once you have access the app is useless It doesnt even know what week you are pregnant even though you entered the due date Dont waste your time on this app     Broken app

The week by week lists and articles are great but the forum ruins the app Out of principle I will delete it Its shocking how these women treat each other and get away with it I will stick to other apps with more positive communities     What a shame

I am already a member of the bump but it wouldnt even let me log in with my correct email and password Even after updating them Tech difficulties to the extreme Waste of my time Ill be deleting my account because of this as well     I should have read the reviews

WORST app a pregnant woman could get Drama Drama Drama This was the first app to come up on my App Store so I decided to give it a try I originally liked it because it was simple to use it gave good info The like didnt last long There were so many technical glitches my app was always messing up and frustrating me The size your baby each week was neither consistent nor accurate The worst part was the community Nothing but a bunch of forums full of bullies Some women were nice but too many were not considerate at all of anyone elses feelings It was crazy The admins are no better they are on the bullys side They do nothing to stop the bullying and punish the person trying to stand up for the person being bullied Dont get this app there are plenty of others out there Steer clear     DO NOT GET THIS APP

The app always says girl It would b nice if I could chose what I wanted or the app didnt use either gender at all        Gender

I currently have a iPhone 5s and the app will not allow me to log back into my account after the last update     Dont intstall

The Bump developers decided to take the side of politics today by boasting the decision to legalize gay marriage despite what this country was built on Their decision to take a political stance frowned upon by 50 million Christians in this country is indicative that they are an antiChristian organization Therefore I am deleting this app and will write letters to ALL companies who have marketed their products through this app I Will also cease marketing my company through this app as well What a shame     AntiChristian

Im writing this 5 star review to balance out the one star review left by the crazy guy who is boycotting the bump because of their support for gay marriage Im sorry but despite your claim you do not speak for most Americans                 Go Bump

This app was fun at first but you cant start posting o forums right away Besides that the content within the baby size is inconsistent In one part it even says the embryo is 13 inches long     Inconsistent

As a first time mom I can honestly say I only made it through my pregnancy through countless hours scrolling Pinterest and this app The weekly updates on the babys progress are so helpful and interesting and the symptoms I was experiencing were spot on I love that now that my daughter is here I still get weekly updates on her development and there were a lot of helpful articles on my postpartum recovery I dont really take advantage of all the features of the app but I look forward to waking up every Wednesday to a new update and I always feel a little extra reassurance as a new mom Highly recommend especially for first time moms                 Amazing and very helpful

God forbid you stick up for someone and now your too sensitive Ugh petty pregnant women I did post things I were legitimately concerned about and got very nice responsesadvice But holy crap You want to say stop the bullying and its WW3           God forbid

I am using this app for TTC The front page never updates it been the same articles for months but when I use my computer and go to the site its always different The forum never opens either with the app     App lacking in updating

I gave this app 1 star because 1 I have too and 2 I did like the home screen with the fruit that gave you information and such BUT like the other posters The drama was just too much It always comes from the same group of ladies who never seem to get warned by the admin Moms should be supportive of each other not be completely rude and cause more drama I moved over to BBC baby center and while you can never escape the drama they are not rude Ive learned way more then when I was on the Bump     Meh

I was happy with the app until a received a notification celebrating the controversial Supreme Court decision about gay marriage I downloaded the app to track and celebrate my baby not gay marriage I will not use the bump or any apps from the company     Notification

This is my favorite baby app I look forward to all the new info every week A couple of days ago I finally added all of my baby bump pics but now the app keeps crashing It prompts me to log in which I never did before than it closes     Keeps Crashing

This app was very informative and I enjoyed the information that it gave me during my pregnancy              Good app

Im with the others who said they want to love this app I used it very frequently during pregnancy and it was wonderful however the information provided for after baby is born is unorganized not chronological Ill be reading about my 6 week old and the headings turn into information on a 3 month old incomplete links will be blank or information will repeat by the paragraph and with grammatical errors A good outline is provided but it needs major editingwhich leaves me frustrated and wanting to switch solely to another app     I want to love

I want to love this app but I keep getting error messages and nothing will load or save     So sad

The women on the forums are absolutely bitter and cruel I announced that after months I had my first hpt and shared what my first symptoms were for others who like me like to see how others are feeling during that time Instead of support I received pages of cruel jokes rude images being mocked and put down Nothing but bitter women putting down others     HORRIBLE FORUMS

Im using a 4S but most apps are still compatible This app though I cant even type my email before it crashes Its unfortunate because I love the BumpKnotNest websites I was really hoping to enjoy the app and give it 5 stars but how can I when I cant even use it Im disappointed that the developers arent accommodating older phones not that my phone is actually all that old in their updates     Crashes at Login Screen

Well I havent had problems with the app not knowing my week of pregnant like some other reviews I am a little frustrated that I have been working hard on adding pictures and comments every week but I just noticed there is nothing to export the albums out so I can print them so whats really the point I would rather just make an album on my iPhone Waste of time        Bump Pics

I have used other apps with previous pregnancies all great experiences but this one came up first in App Store so I gave it a try STRANGEST experience ever I silently observed as mean girls groupies took over the forums bullying and making fun of newcomers or anyone with sincere questions Super negative space and it seems the moderators enjoy it They dont seem to stop it if anything they support it all It must be run by a bunch of teenage girls Find a better app there are plenty out there     WORST pregnancy app ever

I had been using this app the first 20 weeks of my pregnancy When the Supreme Court ruled in favor of gay marriage the app sent me a notification celebrating the ruling I dont care which side of that ruling you are on but I dont put a pregnancy app on my phone that will be pushing any political agenda Very disappointed     Upset

This is supposed to be a support community instead its a bunch of mean wanna be mommies just attacking everyone Glad Im not the only one that thinks this     Nasty ladies

The community on this app are awful They bully newcomers make people feel stupid for being scared and having questions Admin does nothing to help the situation If your a hateful person and just want to pick on defenseless people this app is for you     Worst Community

This app is worth downloading but it isnt perfect I like how colorful and visually appealing it is The weekly videos on your babys growth are informative and assuring The Bump has a community forum in which you can communicate with other moms according to your birth month and other similar categories To normal people it would seem a place to share excitement and anxiousness to a community of women who understand There is a group of women who I believe call themselves regulars because they honestly post dozens of times a day who openly mock and criticize other members on public threads They call individuals who dont interact with them fly by posters and make fun of their comments and questions Its pathetic but entertaining As a first time mom its beneficial for me to hear other perspectives If you would like this type of interaction I would recommend finding a Facebook group with women with the same birth month Its smaller and less bratty I found mine on What to Expect If you need entertainment on a long car ride I would follow The Bump forum I promise you itll make you feel much better about your own life           App is okay

The forums used to be full of posts and information and they are now a wasteland Look elsewhere     Useless

The app itself seems to be fine but I am completely blown away by how people respond to each others comments A lot of people saying they are just teaching proper etiquette but there style is rude and unneeded They definitely could word things in an entirely nice different manner while still getting there point across Because of this I will be using a different site Pregnancy is a delicate time people dont need to be scolded     Rude commenters

This app is terrible When I open a thread on a forum then hit the back button to return to the list the topics are several days old The refresh button doesnt work at all so I have to exit the community section then go back in again to see current forum topics The forums are often crowded with repeat threads because its hard for people to search to see if their topics have been covered recently Just use the website if you can It works so much better than this app        Website is better

I was hoping to find support in the community boards but instead found adult bullying and useless sarcasm Ill try a different app        Disappointed with Community

I dislike that anytime you select a topicthread to view in the community and hit the back button the app refreshes and takes you to the top of the page You then have to scroll to find where you were The app should be more like the website When you go back to the topicthread list you are brought back to where you were on the page Very annoying     Version needs an update

Love the checklist that demystifies pregnancy and the forums are great to get perspectives from other moms                 Love it

The content is pretty much textbook The forums are full of so much redundancy but TheBump cant really control that except to ban anyone who so much as speaks up for themselves when drama breaks out Trying to navigate the forum from the app is majorly annoying Theres about 78 stickies at the top of my birth month club so the first page is mostly that stuff Every time you hit the back button after reading or commenting on a thread it scrolls you all the way back to the top I didnt find a ton of drama in my particular birth month club but oh its there Ive seen it in other clubs and its such a shame that grown women who are about to be mothers can be so cruel to other women Instead of finding empowerment here you may find yourself torn down        Over it

Really not a great app The information is super generic and now that Ive had baby I cant seem to update it to show that Im no longer preggers     Worthless App

So much negativity and there are so many technical problems I could no longer post and then received a message that I couldnt recommend another website to a mom Outrageous Isnt the community supposed to help each other     Dont bother

This app is very helpful to know what going on with the baby in your belly And how big the baby is getting In your belly My favorite part of this app is that it shows videos on how big the baby is getting and that gives you a vice for when you have the baby and that it tells you what week you and your pregnancy Thank you Alexis                 Love it
