BumpCheck: Ingredient Scanner

A jar in one hand, your phone in the other, and a label that means nothing. BumpCheck reads it for the week you are in — and shows you where the answer came from.

Try BumpCheck free for 7 days on a Weekly or Annual plan. Or take Lifetime Access: one payment for pregnancy and breastfeeding, no subscription to cancel.

Searching one ingredient at 2 a.m. gets you a forum thread from 2014, a blog selling its own cream, and a page that says to ask your doctor. BumpCheck gives you what those never do: what published research says about this ingredient at your stage, in one line, with its source named.

CHECK IT THE WAY YOU FOUND IT
• Type a product or medicine name — "Mucinex DM", "niacinamide serum"
• Photograph the ingredient list, or pick one from your gallery
• Hold up a barcode — BumpCheck finds it in the photo
• Read the label live — point the camera and flagged ingredients light up

A VERDICT THAT FOLLOWS YOUR WEEK
Add your due date once and BumpCheck works out your week and trimester. The same ingredient reads differently while trying to conceive, in the first trimester, postpartum and while nursing — and every result moves with you.

WHAT THE RESEARCH ACTUALLY SAYS
• Flagged ingredients first, with what was flagged and when it matters
• "No research flags for your trimester" appears only when every ingredient was read
• Every note names its source; open the original page in a tap
• Ingredients to look for instead, and "Used it before you knew?" for the bottle you had been using for a month

QUESTIONS FOR YOUR NEXT VISIT
Flagged products go to My questions, each with its source. Add your appointment date and BumpCheck builds one page to hand over or send as a PDF — the visit starts with your list.

YOUR SHELVES, NOT A FEED
Checks are kept by room — bathroom shelf, medicine cabinet, kitchen — and what you use daily is one tap away.

ASK WHY — ONLY IF YOU WANT IT
Tap a question on any result for a short summary of the sources on file, labeled as an AI summary, not a person. AI stays off until you switch it on; checks by name, barcode and live label work without it.

BREASTFEEDING TOO
Nursing notes are written for the nursing stage and cite NIH LactMed — not a pregnancy verdict reused for a nursing mother.

WHERE THE INFORMATION COMES FROM
213 reviewed entries — skincare actives, over-the-counter medicines, prenatal vitamins, minerals, supplements, fillers and food — written from publicly available material:
• NIH LactMed (NICHD) — lactation database
• US FDA — drug labels and published warnings
• MotherToBaby — teratogen information fact sheets
• NIH NCCIH and Office of Dietary Supplements — herbs and supplements
• CDC and ACOG — food, infection and obstetric guidance
• EWG Skin Deep and Cosmetic Ingredient Review — cosmetics

PRIVACY
Your checks, due date and questions stay on your phone. No account. In Settings you can switch AI off or delete everything. When you photograph a label, only that image goes through our proxy to read the ingredient text; it is never stored or linked to you.

IMPORTANT
BumpCheck is an educational reference for informational purposes only. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose or treat anything, and does not replace your OB-GYN, midwife, pharmacist or other qualified professional. Discuss any product or medicine with your own provider.
