Are these tools medical advice?
No. The tools are for planning and quick reference. Diagnosis, treatment, and urgent concerns should go through your pediatrician or OB team.
Common questions from parents using MomTools English
These answers are written to help you understand what the site is for, when the tools are useful, and when a healthcare professional should come first.
Are the vaccine dates exact?
They are meant for routine timing reference in the US. Catch-up schedules and medical exceptions should always be confirmed with your clinic.
Can I use the site if my child was born early?
You can still use the tools as a starting point, but preterm birth often changes how milestones and feeding questions are discussed with your clinician.
Why are some pages short?
The English section is being expanded page by page. Priority pages already have fuller guidance, and more detailed sections are being added gradually.
