This timer doesn't determine labor

It only organizes the numbers. The real assessment is up to your healthcare team — call the maternity hospital whenever you're unsure, even if you've only logged a few contractions.

Tap Start when a contraction begins and Stop when it eases. A popular guideline for heading to the hospital is "5-1-1": contractions every 5 minutes, lasting about 1 minute, for 1 hour straight — but always follow the advice of your prenatal care team.

No contractions logged in this session yet.
