Track your contractions

Tap to start. Tap to stop. The tracker reads your pattern and shows tips that match where you are — from “probably Braxton Hicks” to “time to go.”

Braxton HicksIrregular, 15–30 sec

Try water or rest — they usually ease up.

Early Labor15–20 min apart, 30–45 sec

Rest, hydrate, breathe slow. This can last a while.

Active Labor3–5 min apart, 45–60 sec

Contact your care provider. Things are picking up.

Transition2–3 min apart, 60–90 sec

Shortest and hardest stage. You’re almost there.

The 5-1-1 Rule

When contractions come every 5 minutes, last 1 minute each, for 1 hour — most providers say it's time to head to the hospital.

What to expect in month 9

The home stretch. Here's what's happening.

Baby is the size of a watermelon

At 36–40 weeks, baby weighs 6–9 lbs and is ready to make their entrance.

Braxton Hicks vs. the real deal

Practice contractions are irregular and fade. Real ones get closer, stronger, and longer.

When to call the doctor

Contractions 5 minutes apart for 1 hour, water breaks, or reduced baby movement.

Nest like you mean it

Install the car seat, wash the tiny clothes, and triple-check your hospital bag.
