DadKit: Fatherhood Field Guide

Fatherhood doesn't come with a manual. So we built one. Week-by-week from first trimester to first year — free, no ads, built for dads.

DadKit is the field guide for dads. Trying to conceive, pregnancy, and the first five years – covered start to finish. DadKit tells you what's happening, gives you tools to actually use, and keeps track of the moments that matter.

I'm Chace. I built DadKit while my wife was pregnant with our first because every pregnancy app I downloaded was built for her — which makes sense, she was doing the hard part — but there was nothing for the person standing next to her trying to figure out what was actually happening.

PREGNANCY • Contraction timer: The 5-1-1 guideline is built in, so you'll know when it's time to go. • Kick counter: Count movements in the third trimester. Yes, you need to do this. • Safety lookup: Food, medication, activity. Search it before you buy it. This is for the 8pm grocery aisle moment. • Symptom log: Track how she's feeling and save questions before they evaporate by Thursday. • Weekly updates: What's happening, written for you. Not the shared journey. Your actual job. • Appointment timeline: What happens at the 20-week scan, and whether you're supposed to be there. • Birth plan: One page covering pain relief, who's in the room, delivery preferences. Export it, print it, done.

AFTER THE BABY Content continues through year five, with something new every month. • Feeding log: Left, right, bottle, or pump. Two taps, built for one hand at 3am. • Diaper log: You'll understand why this matters around week two. • "Is this normal?": Every month, the things dads Google that turn out to be fine. • Newborn safety: Safe sleep, car seats, fevers, when to call the pediatrician. • Developmental milestones: Month by month through year five, what's happening and what's next. • Pediatric appointments: What each visit covers and which vaccines are due, all the way through.

FREE. PERMANENTLY. • Contraction timer, kick counter, feeding log, diaper log, safety lookup, symptom log, newborn safety. The tools you need shouldn't cost anything.

DADKIT+ • Journal: Weekly prompts through pregnancy, monthly after. The moments you'll want in ten years, written down now. • Full article library: every trimester and topic • Appointment prep: questions to ask and what results mean • Partner check-ins: one question each, once a week • Growth tracking: across scans • Kick counter and contraction history: trends over time • Feeding analytics: intervals, counts, and what's normal for your baby • Baby names: swipe, save, share. She'll veto most of them. • All six size comparison packs: for the weekly updates • Full symptom log history: beyond seven days

DadKit was built for dads. If you're the partner reading this and deciding whether to send it to him, send it.
