Calm, simple and easy to use with one hand, day or night. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Start and stop each contraction with a single big button • Live timer with a calm breathing animation while a contraction is running • Time since your last contraction • Last-hour summary: number of contractions, average duration and interval • 5-1-1 pattern card that tells you when your contractions match the guideline • Rate the intensity of each contraction from 1 to 5 • History of the last 24 hours, grouped by day • Light and dark mode Timing is always free and unlimited.
