• Track Breast Milk

  I’m using Baby Buddy, I built some ESPHome devices to trigger on button presses (from what others have posted as modifications). So when we change a diaper we hit the appropriate button (I mounted it above the changing table) and it fires off and logs a diaper change (wet, solid, etc). Then using the Baby Buddy HA integration I have an automation that fires every time the “Last Diaper” time is changed, it then... Source: about 1 year ago

  Validates my decision to self-host and donate to Baby Buddy: https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy I figured all those “free” (and possibly even the paid) baby apps were likely doing all sorts of shady things with that data.

If... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
