Pregnancy and baby-shower photos: the before pictures

The bump photos and shower chaos become the 'before' pictures of a whole person — and vanish under that person's own photo avalanche.

The idea

This is what Bubbles In Time was built for: not a feed you scroll and not a notification you open, but your own memories drifting past while you go about your day.

The rotation floats the before next to the after: the bump photo arriving during the toddler years recalibrates a hard parenting day instantly.

In practice

Bubbles In Time draws from your own gallery — family, friends, pets, places — and shows them as translucent bubbles over any app, then lets them go.

For the kid, later: their own 'before they existed' photos floating on the family tablet is a reliable source of delighted confusion.

Setting it up

Ten minutes, once: install Bubbles In Time ($2.99, one-time), pull the relevant photos from your gallery into the rotation, set a frequency that feels right, and let the floating layer do the rest. Everything stays on your device — no account, no uploads, no ads between the memories — and the pause switch is always one tap away.
