Medical & Editorial Policy

The MamiMamita approach to health information. Finding trustworthy parenting information isn’t always easy. Advice can vary between websites, social media and even well-meaning family and friends, leaving many parents unsure which guidance to trust.

At MamiMamita, we believe health information should be clear, balanced and based on recognised evidence. Whether you’re reading one of our articles, using a baby calculator or downloading a personalised guide, our goal is to explain general recommendations in a way that’s easy to understand while recognising that every pregnancy, every baby and every family is unique.

This Medical & Editorial Policy explains how we research, create, review and maintain our health content, the principles behind our calculators, and the standards we follow to help ensure the information published on MamiMamita remains accurate, transparent and responsible.

How MamiMamita Creates, Reviews and Maintains Health Content

At MamiMamita, we believe that becoming a parent shouldn’t mean trying to navigate confusing, contradictory or overly technical health information alone. Our goal is to provide clear, practical and evidence-based information that helps parents better understand pregnancy, babies and early childhood.

Every article, guide, calculator and downloadable resource is created to educate and support families, helping you understand general recommendations and make more informed decisions. Our content is not intended to replace professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, but to complement the guidance you receive from qualified healthcare professionals.

Our Editorial Mission

MamiMamita exists to make reliable parenting information easier to understand.

We explain health topics using clear, everyday language while remaining faithful to the underlying evidence. Whenever possible, our content reflects established public-health guidance and recognised medical organisations rather than personal opinions or unsupported claims.

Our aim is to help parents understand what is generally recommended, why those recommendations exist, when normal variation should be expected, and when professional medical advice should be sought.

We are committed to providing balanced, objective and practical information without sensationalism, fear-based messaging or exaggerated health claims.

Evidence-Based Information

Our editorial content is developed using information from recognised healthcare organisations, government health authorities and publicly available clinical guidance.

Depending on the subject, our sources may include:

• World Health Organization (WHO)
• Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
• NHS
• American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)
• The European Academy of Paediatrics (EAP)
• HealthyChildren.org
• National public-health authorities
• Government health departments
• Peer-reviewed scientific literature
• Clinical practice guidelines

As medical knowledge continues to evolve, recommendations may change over time. We regularly review our health content and update it when significant changes occur.

Our Editorial Process

Before publication, health-related content is reviewed to ensure it is factually accurate, balanced, clearly written and consistent with our editorial standards.

Our focus is not to provide the most complicated explanation, but the clearest and most useful one. We aim to explain evidence in a way that parents can understand and apply in everyday life.

Where uncertainty exists, we acknowledge it rather than presenting estimates as absolute facts.

Calculator Methodology

MamiMamita calculators are educational tools designed to help parents understand general recommendations and planning estimates.

Whenever appropriate, our calculators use recognised public-health guidance and transparent calculation methods rather than proprietary scoring systems or unexplained algorithms.

Where estimates are provided, we explain what information is used, how the calculation works, the intended scope of the calculator and situations where the calculator should not be used.

Whenever practical, calculations are performed directly within your browser. Information entered into a calculator is intended only to generate the requested result and is not intended to become part of a medical record.

Educational Use Only

All articles, calculators, downloadable PDF guides and other resources published by MamiMamita are provided for educational purposes only.

They should never be considered medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, prescriptions, emergency guidance or personalised healthcare recommendations.

Healthcare decisions should always be made in consultation with appropriately qualified healthcare professionals who understand your individual circumstances.

Calculator Limitations

Online calculators simplify complex biological processes and cannot take every individual factor into account.

Many circumstances cannot be accurately represented in a general educational calculator, including medical history, pregnancy complications, premature birth, congenital conditions, medications, allergies, feeding disorders, growth disorders, developmental conditions and clinician-prescribed feeding plans.

Calculator results should always be interpreted alongside professional advice and your baby’s individual needs.

Formula Feeding Disclaimer

Our formula-related calculators are intended only for healthy, full-term babies unless explicitly stated otherwise.

They are not designed for premature babies, babies with low birth weight, feeding difficulties, poor weight gain, specialist formulas or medically supervised feeding plans.

Formula should always be prepared exactly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Parents should never change the amount of powder or water unless specifically instructed by an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Pregnancy Disclaimer

Pregnancy calculators provide estimates based on commonly accepted methods.

Actual pregnancy timelines, due dates and fetal development naturally vary between individuals.

Only your healthcare provider can provide personalised clinical advice regarding your pregnancy and your baby’s development.

Child Development Information

Developmental milestones describe common patterns observed across many children.

Every child develops at their own pace, and variation is normal.

Milestone guides and calculators should never be used to diagnose developmental delays or medical conditions. If you have concerns about your child’s development, you should consult your healthcare provider.

Medical Emergencies

MamiMamita cannot assess medical emergencies.

If you believe your baby or child requires urgent medical care, contact your local emergency services or seek immediate medical attention without delay.

Corrections and Updates

Accuracy is important to us.

If we discover that information is incomplete, outdated or inaccurate, we will review the content and make appropriate corrections.

Medical recommendations change as new evidence becomes available, and we regularly review health-related articles and calculators to reflect current guidance whenever practical.

Advertising and Commercial Independence

Some articles may contain affiliate links or advertising that helps support MamiMamita.

Commercial relationships do not influence our editorial opinions, recommendations or health information.

Editorial decisions are made independently of advertising partnerships, and sponsored or commercial content will always be clearly identified where required.

Artificial Intelligence

MamiMamita may use artificial intelligence to assist with research, drafting, editing, language improvement, accessibility, translation and content organisation.

All health-related articles, calculators and downloadable guides are reviewed against our editorial standards before publication.

Artificial intelligence supports our editorial process but does not replace human editorial judgement or responsibility for the published content.

Privacy

Where practical, our online calculators perform calculations directly within your browser.

Information entered into calculators is generally used only to generate the requested result.

For more information about how personal information is collected, processed and protected, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

MamiMamita exists to support parents with practical, trustworthy information—helping you understand general guidance while recognising that every pregnancy, every baby and every family is unique.
