In the first weeks, keeping track of when the next feed, diaper check, or nap "should" happen is hard when you're running on broken sleep. Reminders exist to take that math off your plate, not to add another thing to manage.
Why Timing Reminders Help in the Newborn Weeks
Newborns feed every 2 to 3 hours around the clock, and it's easy to lose track of exactly when the last one ended, especially overnight. A reminder that's based on your own baby's actual recent pattern is more useful than trying to do the math in your head at 4am.

Reminders Aren't Alarms to Panic Over
A reminder is a nudge based on typical timing, not a medical alert. If your baby is happily sleeping past a feeding reminder, that's not automatically a problem - you know your baby better than a notification does. Reminders are there to catch the moments you'd otherwise lose track of, not to override your judgment.
