## What is Made for This Birth?

Your pregnancy and birth matter and God wants to meet you there. 
 
Made for This Birth is here to support and encourage you as you prepare for a happy, healthy, and yes, even holy pregnancy and birth with God. We believe that you are designed intentionally and beautifully to grow and birth your baby and He wants to be part of the experience. Birth can be one of the most amazing and spiritually transformative experiences of a woman's life and Made for This Birth can help you prepare your body, mind, heart, and soul for just that.

The Made for This Birth Album contains over THREE HOURS of Catholic meditations, prayer, affirmations, Scripture, and relaxation practice for birth. We'll help you overcome fear, heal disordered beliefs, and prepare you for a joyful and empowering birth with God at the center. Playlists are customizable and can even include your own Apple Library tracks! Tracks were written and are led by the author of Made for This: The Catholic Mom's Guide to Birth, childbirth educator and doula, and mother of seven, Mary Haseltine.
 
Our Weekly Pregnancy Guide walks you through a more intentional and TRULY holistic pregnancy and birth from the very beginning - Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul. Each week you’ll be offered a unique glimpse of what your baby is up to, digestible but impactful information and reflections about your pregnancy, prenatal care, birth, and postpartum time, beautiful and compelling questions to reflect on, take to prayer, and even journal through, and a custom prayer specific to that week to help you orient all your decisions and experiences toward God's plan for YOU. Unlike secular sources, we’ll see you and your baby through the lens of God’s intentional design, in a way that honors you as a complete woman and your baby as a unique human being.
 
The Made for This customizable contraction timer allows you to time contractions while also offering sacred images, Scriptures, saint quotes, intentions, and even your own uploaded images to provide encouragement and inspiration as you labor!

### 5/5 — Indispensable pregnancy companion!

*2026-01-27, version 4.0.4*

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!

### 5/5 — A beautiful combo of the faith and the gift of life

*2026-01-26, version 4.0.4*

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.

### 5/5 — Highly recommend!

*2026-01-23, version 4.0.4*

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!

### 5/5 — Made for This Birth

*2025-11-20, version 3.2.0*

I enjoyed using this app to prepare for my birth. This was my third child. I loved the prayers, scriptures, quote of the day, resources, checklists, and the Facebook group was also helpful. I purchased items from the Amazon list too, and the articles were helpful. I highly recommend this app. Mary, thank you for creating a lovely resource.

### 5/5 — Amazingly Helpful!

*2025-11-11*

I discovered this app just a couple weeks before my due date, and listened my way through most of the audio tracks in preparation, as well as praying the prayer of the week each day. I can't even explain what a difference it made in helping me view my birth as something prayerful and beautiful, despite the pain, rather than the miserable resignation I think I was in before. When I went into labor in the middle of the night, I was able to spend several hours laboring peacefully while listening to the audio tracks as well. Highly, highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Beautiful and Powerful App

*2025-10-23, version 3.2.0*

For the birth of my third child, I really leaned into spiritual preparation and this app was an amazing tool to aid in uniting my sufferings during pregnancy and labor to God and for so many beautiful intentions of friends and family! The app helped to instill so many beautiful truths in my heart during difficult moments. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Positive Catholic Natural Birth

*2025-10-08, version 3.2.0*

So thankful for this beautiful resource! Listen daily to prayers and affirmations, plus get weekly baby updates. All the stuff you want regarding natural birth with spiritual guidance as well.

### 5/5 — Focuses you

*2025-10-06, version 3.2.0*

This is an amazing app both to prepare your mental state for laboring beforehand and to keep you in the zone during labor! I love it so much!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2025-09-22, version 3.2.0*

This app has all you need on it for the stages of your pregnancy. What more motivation & inspiration do you need more than incorporating Gods word into your journey, this app gives you that. 
The resources, the testimonies, the prayer meditations & the daily encouragement are all so great to have. Pair it with the book & it’s even better!

### 5/5 — Best Catholic app!

*2025-09-15*

This app has truly been the biggest blessing in my life! As a mother, and a midwife, I use this app almost daily. I love the week by week pregnancy updates, and education, as well as the prayers for each week and things to reflect on. All of the prayers and resources are so lovely. I find myself going back often to pray novenas, read birth stories, and just use it to calm myself when I feel overwhelmed. This app will continue to bless you and your life going forward as a mom!
