Water Intake Log (for mum)
The person who gets forgotten. Log what you actually drink and this totals the day in both ounces and millilitres, and shows it beside the National Academies' Adequate Intake for lactation. It is careful about what that figure means: it is a population Adequate Intake and not a personal target, it covers total water including what comes from food, and the National Academies explicitly decline to publish any per-person rule. So this logs and totals; it does not score you. Everything stays on this device.

Where these figures come from
Every number this tool shows you is published guidance, not our opinion. Read it yourself:
This is a record-keeping aid, not medical advice and not a diagnosis. Anything clinical belongs with your pediatrician, midwife, or an IBCLC lactation consultant.
Frequently asked
Where is this stored? Can anyone else see it?
Only on this device, in your browser. Nothing is ever uploaded and there is no account. This is health information about a baby, so it does not leave the device — export to CSV/JSON to back it up, or print it to take to an appointment.
Is this medical advice?
No. It is a record you keep and a reference to published CDC, AAP and National Academies guidance. It does not diagnose anything. Anything clinical belongs with your pediatrician, midwife, or an IBCLC lactation consultant.
How do I show this to a doctor?
Export to CSV or JSON for a file, or just print the page - the print layout drops the site furniture and prints the summary and the table as a clean record.
Should I be drinking half my bodyweight in ounces?
That rule has no health authority behind it. The National Academies say in as many words that they offer no rule of thumb for how much people should drink, because needs are met from many sources and thirst is the guide for healthy adults. This tool shows the official Adequate Intake for lactation and your own logged total, and refuses to turn your weight into a target.
