Stop Texting New Moms for Baby Pics
Let’s say it louder for the people in the back:
Stop. Texting. New. Moms. For. Updates.
We get it. You’re excited. You want to see the baby. You’re just “checking in.”
But here’s what it really feels like to a parent who just went through labor:
“Can you send a pic?”
“Any updates?”
“How are you feeling??”
“Can we stop by??”
Now multiply that by 30 texts.
While you’re still bleeding, not sleeping, and maybe even crying through feedings.
It’s Not Rude—It’s Reality
New parents are in survival mode. And even the most well-meaning messages can feel like more to manage.
No one talks about the pressure to keep everyone updated, to answer every “how’s baby?” text, to coordinate visits while recovering from major surgery or sleep deprivation.
And no—sending a group chat doesn’t help. It just turns into chaos with 47 replies and zero boundaries.
This Is Exactly Why We Built Newbby
Newbby isn’t just another baby app. It’s your command center for chaos.

This Isn’t About Being Mean
It’s about protecting new parents’ energy.
It’s about giving friends and family a way to actually help—without blowing up their phones.
It’s about boundaries that don’t feel like rejection.
