About this app

***THE BEST CONTRACTION TIMER APP FOR A POSITIVE BIRTH EXPERIENCE***

The GentleBirth Contraction Timer app combines guidance from the Award Winning GentleBirth Program with a beautiful interface to make tracking contractions/surges easy, effective and stress free. Created by Positive Birth expert, author, midwife and Founder of GentleBirth, Tracy Donegan. 

GentleBirth has guided tens of thousands of parents around to world through their own positive birth experience.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
Track contractions in real time, edit contractions previously recorded, manually add contractions or delete when necessary.

GentleBirth Guidance provides individualized audio labor coaching based on your reported experience as you track each contraction. Using mindfulness, focus and breathing significantly effects pain perception.

Separate background sounds allow you to play sounds in the background of the GentleBirth Guidance, background sounds only, or no audio at all. All easily controlled from one screen.

Beautiful and easy to read charts and statistics allow you to see trends over time. You can change the timeframe to view the information that is most important you at any point during your labor.

Email your surge history and release of water data to yourself or your care-provider directly from the app.

The GentleBirth Indicator analyses the duration and frequency of surges and will notify you when it’s time to go to hospital or if there are patterns of contractions that indicate you should contact your care-provider.

Ratings and reviews

I don't want the audio guidance. I don't want a pop up asking me if I want to install it after every contraction. I also don't want a pop up every time my contraction is over 2 minutes, telling me I have an unusually long contraction, and having to manually adjust every single one. Fix these two things and it would be a lovely app.

Overall it's a great app. The timer works well and it's quite functional for what it needs to do. I would make it so you can choose to never have the background sound. It turns itself back on when you close and reopen the app. I don't mind it terribly, but it interrupts the music on my phone that I would rather be listening to when having contractions.

This app helped me with the fastest labor I've had yet. It helped me keep my head straight through the pain of surges. (Get the main app and do the masterclass - you'll be so glad you did.) I was a little frustrated with needing to rate the intensity of surges, but it was nice that it overrid my lock screen so I didn't have to unlock my phone every time one came on. Also nice was the options - sometimes I felt like listening to Tracy's voice or sound effects, and others I just wanted quiet.
