Thoughtful - every Catholic mom should use
I’ve used this app through a couple pregnancies, and I love that they have improved it through time. Everything about this app is tender, perfect for the vulnerable space you’re in while you’re pregnant. It is encouraging, and honest, a beautiful prep for birth. I love the journal questions, the prayers, the positive birth stories, the focus on faith and God’s hand in your journey, the album in particular is great. I only wish they’d add more pregnancy-specific prayers to the album because they are so soothing.

Indispensable Birth Aid!
I just had my fourth baby at home, and this app was critical for me. I used the prayers and affirmations as I went through earlier parts of labor, but then when my birth team arrived I turned them off so we could chat for a bit. As labor intensified, I literally grabbed my phone and turned the prayers back on. I needed to hear the affirmations and prayers. It was like a desperate need to bring me into my body and hear the prayers to help me align myself. Literally every word I heard from the app was a lifeline. I clung to the notions of "every wave brings me closer to meeting my baby" and such. The concept of "God made me to do this work" was essential to hear. I needed to hear it to accept it, which in turn helped me relax better.
This baby was huge and difficult to birth. She came out slowly, head, then chest, then hips. I truly felt like the prayers and affirmations on this app played a crucial role in helping me give birth to my 10lb7oz girl. Every Catholic woman would benefit from using this app as a birth aid!!

I have gifted a subscription to this app to my expecting friends because this app was SUCH a beautiful accompaniment to my pregnancy journey! From the physiological information to the spiritual edification, the app supported me in all the ways I needed and more! I especially loved the birth stories, articles, and printable resources. God bless Mary and all the incredible work she is doing. Thank you!

A beautiful combo of the faith and the gift of life
I love that this app has the weekly photos of your baby but also ties in prayer and faith with each week. This app has improved so much since my last pregnancy, I’m amazed! Excited to use it again.
Highly recommend!
I loved listening to the Made For This Birth app before and during labor! I recommend it to all my friends, family, and clients who I doula for!
