About Bump+Bloom

Bump+Bloom is an ingredient scanner built for expectant and new parents who want quick, clear guidance on whether the products they use every day are safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Whether you are reading the back of a moisturizer, a prenatal supplement, or a packaged snack, you can paste the ingredient list or snap a photo of the label and receive an ingredient-by-ingredient safety breakdown in seconds. Each ingredient is rated as safe, use with caution, or avoid, with a plain-language explanation so you can make informed choices with confidence.

The app is designed for anyone navigating the overwhelming world of product labels during the perinatal period — first-time parents, experienced caregivers, and anyone supporting a loved one through pregnancy or nursing. From everyday skincare to food additives, Bump+Bloom scans against a comprehensive database of over 100,000+ globally recognized ingredients. Simply snap a label or paste a link, and get instant, plain-language safety ratings tailored to your current stage with two dedicated profiles: Pregnancy and Breastfeeding. The free tier lets you use the scanner to check up to 25 ingredients per day, while a one-time Lifetime VIP pass for $19.99 unlocks unlimited scanning for life, with no subscription to remember later.

With all parents and caregivers in mind, in the free tier there's also a searchable glossary of over 650 common ingredients that keeps growing — every time someone scans an ingredient that isn't already in our database, it's added so the next parent can find it. You'll also get FDA safety alerts to keep you and your baby healthy. Once you sign in, you can use personal scan history, allergy tracking, and adjust more personal settings.

Bump+Bloom is built by a small, independent team that cares deeply about making trustworthy health information accessible and easy to understand — started by a mom who kept searching for an ingredient scanner like this and asking herself again and again, "how can I just scan this all, easily"? The guidance is general and educational, not a substitute for professional medical advice, and we always encourage you to consult your healthcare provider before making changes to your routine. We are continually refining our ingredient database and safety explanations so the app grows alongside the people who rely on it.

Every safety rating is grounded in current research. Our ingredient assessments draw on peer-reviewed medical literature, guidance from major health authorities such as ACOG, the FDA, the CDC, and the NIH (including its LactMed database), and established reproductive-toxicology references. When the evidence is limited or evolving, we err on the side of caution and label an ingredient accordingly. Because science advances, we review and update our ratings regularly so the guidance you receive reflects the best available evidence at the time.
