Leap Preview
This leap preview shows what your baby will experience in four of the developmental weeks: week 5, 8, 12 and 19.
Select Week:
World of Sensations (Week 5)
Your baby's senses are developing rapidly. Everything may seem more vivid and loud. They will cry often and want to be held.
World of Patterns (Week 8)
Time to discover their own hands! They realize the world consists of simple patterns. Shadows and light play attract their attention.
Smooth Transitions (Week 12)
Movements are now smoother. They discover their vocal cords and start cooing a lot. They might test their voice by screaming.
World of Events (Week 19)
One of the toughest leaps. It's the phase of dropping things, observing, and understanding consequences. Sleep regression is common.

Frequently Asked Questions
The most common questions about leaps, sleep, first foods, milestones and Premium membership, answered clearly with reference to the science.
What is a Developmental Leap?
These are periods of sudden change in a baby's brain development. During these times, they start perceiving the world in a new way, which scares them and makes them fussier (crying, clingy).
Is my data safe?
Absolutely. Your baby's data is securely stored on our cloud servers, ensuring you can seamlessly access your information even if you change your phone. Your health data is never shared with 3rd parties.
Is the app free?
You can read our expert articles and content completely for free. Personalized leap tracking, sleep, first foods and milestone modules are part of Premium, and you can try all Premium features free for 7 days.
What is the price of Premium subscription?
Premium subscription is offered as monthly or annual plans, and both plans include a 7-day free trial. You can cancel anytime during the trial at no charge; current pricing is available on the 'Upgrade to Premium' screen in the app.
Can I add multiple children?
Yes, Premium members can add multiple children to the system and track each one's development separately.
Can I use the app together with my partner?
Yes! You can invite your partner as a 'co-parent' by sending them an invite code from your Premium account. This way, both of you can track the same baby's development in real-time.
Is it suitable for premature babies?
Yes. Our app calculates leap dates based on the due date (40th week) rather than the actual birth date. This ensures perfectly accurate timing for premature babies as well.
How long do sleep regressions last?
Sleep regressions tied to developmental leaps usually last between 1 to 4 weeks. Our app warns you in advance about when this challenging period will start and end.
Is the information scientifically backed?
Our content is based on academic studies published by WHO (World Health Organization) and PubMed. However, it does not replace medical advice, and you should always consult your doctor.
Does LittleLeaps only track leaps?
No. Leaps are one module. Sleep, first foods, 52 milestones, memories, teeth, play ideas and a monthly report live in the same app.
Can I track sleep and first foods?
Yes. Start a nap or night with one tap and review weekly patterns, and log 81 first foods with reactions and allergen notes.
What is in the monthly report?
An 8-page PDF plus a 1080×1080 post and a 1080×1920 story card, covering leaps, measurements on WHO curves, sleep, first foods and milestones.
Independent authoritative scientific sources our data is based on:
How LittleLeaps Calculates Leaps
LittleLeaps calculates every leap from the due date, and the facts below are the basis of each prediction.
- Mental leap
- A mental leap is a short period in which a baby's brain reorganises itself and the baby starts perceiving the world in a new way. It is often followed by extra crying, clinginess and disrupted sleep.
- LittleLeaps tracks 14 growth events across the first 75 weeks: 10 mental leaps peaking at weeks 5, 8, 12, 19, 26, 37, 46, 55, 64 and 75 after the due date, plus 4 physical growth spurts at weeks 2, 3, 6 and 16.
- Leap timing is calculated from the due date (week 40), not the birth date, so it stays accurate for premature babies—who account for about 10% of births worldwide according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
- A leap's fussy period starts before its peak week: the week 19 leap begins around week 15, and the week 75 leap around week 71.
- According to pediatric sleep guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and PubMed studies, a sleep regression tied to a leap usually lasts between 1 and 4 weeks.
- Growth charts use the WHO Child Growth Standards percentiles from P3 to P97 (3% to 97%, covering 94% of the WHO reference study of 8,440 infants) for boys and girls from 0 to 24 months.
