Designed for women in labor, this application allows you to time your contractions. Simply fire up Contractions and press the icon once when a contraction starts, and once when it ends (better yet - have the babys father do it!)
This program keeps track of the interval between contractions as well as the duration of each contraction. Just tap the blue area on the top of the screen at the start and end of each contraction. (Note: versions before version 1.2 require that you instead tap the on-screen button).
If you leave the program and come back, all your data is still there. You can even exit mid-contraction and return.
Also, an email button allows you send your data to yourself (for posterity!), the father, or to your medical practitioner.
Important note:
This software is not intended to substitute in any way for the care of a medical practitioner. You should always consult with a doctor or other medical caregiver.
