1. 5/5I Am Not Alone!

   I downloaded this app after seeing it on TikTok. I struggle with postpartum depression and a big part of it is the nights where I feel lonely. In my head I would convince myself that I was the only person in the world that was awake and struggling - but boy, was I wrong. In the night I am up either feeding my son or pumping, always sleep deprived. This all has allowed me to see I am in fact not alone. I am able to see other moms around the world that are also awake when I am. It also allows me to send and receive virtual hugs from them and words of encouragement. This app is a game changer when it comes to postpartum and feeling less lonely - and helping others feel less lonely as well.

2. 5/5Beautiful and thoughtful gift to moms

   As a mom of young children I’m past the typical postpartum period. My little ones are mostly sleeping through the night and I’m far past middle of the night feedings. I would have loved this resource during that time in my motherhood journey, however even now I often find myself waking in the night feeling anxious. I’ll hear an out of place noise or have a bad dream. Or even sometimes find myself up too late unable to fall asleep. I came across this suggested app and my eyes filled with tears. What a gift to realize that you aren’t alone. So many mothers up in the middle of the night for various reasons. That knowledge is a comfort and a little motivation to keep going. You aren’t alone.

3. 5/5A lifesaver! 💕

   I have two other kids, my first I had completely alone. I remember those nights so vividly. Up at 3am, running on a broken 2 hours of sleep, nursing my daughter alone, so desperate for someone to talk to; for someone to understand. I often found myself thinking “there has to be someone out there doing this same thing right now, I can’t be alone.” And that thought got me through the hard hard nights. I had my third baby a few months ago. This app has changed my life. On my “on” nights (dad takes the others), when I’m up with my son at 3am, I don’t sit alone. This app has created a sense of unity. To know I’m not alone, and to physically see I’m not alone, has changed my world. Dad is so supportive, but he doesn’t understand the feelings of postpartum or nursing your baby from your body. Having a community of moms who understand and are right there with you has made those postpartum nights so much better. I cannot explain my love for this app!!

4. 5/5Lifesaver

   This is the place you turn to when you’re on your third, fourth, fifth wake up of the night and it’s usually a long one that you think to yourself “im so alone” “im in silence suffering in some way to care of this precious child of mine” “I am so tired, when will it get better” and then you open Beacon. You can either rant quickly, find support anonymously or relate to others via quick messages. You can see on a map just how many other moms out there are up at the exact same time as you. This helps in those tough moments and times of need and I am so glad to have found it. Thanks Amanda, keep doing what you’re doing with this app 💗

5. 5/5Such a helpful wonderful app

   I remember postpartum nights with my first and doing it alone due to her father working I felt alone sitting in my bed feeding and changing with the alone company being my cat (which I love and appreciate) I wish I could have had something like this to see I wasn’t the only one awake at 2:30 am fighting to stay awake. I just had my son 6 weeks ago and thought to try this out. With him it’s not so easy to remember feedings and changing on top of a pump schedule while caring for my almost three year old my pets and my home let alone remembering to shower. I love that this app allows me to keep track of all of that feedings changing and pumping. This is truly a helpful app to new or experienced mothers.
