    Development of a mobile phone app focused on monitoring a baby’s kicks and increasing a mother’s awareness of their baby’s movement in the late stages of pregnancy.

  • Background

    In the late stages of pregnancy a baby’s movements inside the womb may decrease. However, a decrease in fetal movement can also be an indication of a change in the baby’s health. Increasing mother’s awareness of their baby’s movements through a mobile phone app that provide quality information about fetal movements can encourage early reporting of decrease in movement.
