7 Apps To Help You In Your Pregnancy Journey

7 min read

With a baby on the way, you as a mum need to keep track of a lot of things: what you eat, how you weigh, what your baby’s weight is, what they look like or if they’re growing according to standard. And once you go into labour, you’ll have plenty more things to worry about: how long your contractions are, how far apart are they. You’ll be far too stressed to try to keep track of all of those.

The good news is we have gone so far into the future that we can use technology to do the work for us. With the abundance of such pregnancy apps in the market today, we’ve narrowed it down to some of the most useful ones you should try. Your hunt for the best pregnancy app in Singapore ends here. So, let’s get right to it!

1. Sprout Pregnancy

If you want a pregnancy app that can do it all, get this app. Not only is it your one-stop shop for all useful preggo information. It also keeps track of your baby’s kicks, your contractions, your weight goals, and so much more.

The coolest thing that mums often say about this app is the awesome animation of what your baby looks like inside your belly. The simulated baby in the app kicks and stretches – you can even experience its heart beating. And the simulation evolves or grows as you go along your pregnancy journey.

An added feature is its journalling option. Pregnancy is going to bring a lot of up and down moods, so it’s best to keep a journal by your bedside to help you get through all that stress and overwhelming emotions. Good thing you don’t need to grab a pen and paper just to journal. Just grab your phone, open Sprout Pregnancy, and write away.

This app is free. Just expect some in-app purchases, should you want to have the full experience. And, it’s available for both iPhone and Android users.

2. Flo Period and Ovulation Tracker

If you are still in the beginning of your journey to getting pregnant, this app is the best companion for you. Healthline named it as the Best Fertility app in 2020 and is constantly high-ranking in the Apple app store, so you know people are loving it.

Its main purpose is to track your period and ovulation dates (it assesses even your vaginal discharge)but once you’re pregnant, you can also use it to track your pregnancy symptoms, follow your baby’s growth, and countdown to your due date. 

Their free version, which you can download in the Apple and Google Play Store is already awesome, but users say you’ll get more than your money’s worth in the paid version.

3. Glow

Best known for its simplicity and ease of use, the Glow app sends you articles and insights customized to the data that you plug into it. You will get updates daily. You’re not going to miss a single beat when you try this app.

To top that, this app also allows you to create a baby registry for your loved ones to use when they are struggling to think of a gift for you and your little one. What’s the best part? You can add items from any store. 

Another feature this app has is to offer postpartum and miscarriage support. That feature alone says so much about how the creators of the app truly know what pregnant women need.

Oh, and it’s free and usable by iPhone and Android users.

4. Full Term – Contraction Timer

Yes, honey, you don’t need to manually count how long, how far apart, and how frequent those contractions are. App developers are way ahead of you with this app.

Literally, the only thing you need to do (after downloading the app of course) is to tap when your contractions begin and tap when your contractions end, and then the app does the math for you. Labour is already hard as it is. Don’t let counting contractions become one of the many causes of your labour stress. Download this app now.

5. Baby2Body

Your doctor has probably told you that exercising regularly aids in faster and easier delivery. That should be reason enough for you to try this app which provides you with information about anything fitness-related for pregnant mums: workouts customized for each stage in your pregnancy journey, nutrition info and healthy but yummy recipes, breathing exercises, and even pelvis-strengthening workouts. And, once you’re baby is born, you can still use this app for postnatal workouts. 

6. Expectful: Wellness For Moms

Pregnant mums have a lot going on in their minds. There are so many things to prepare and keep track of for the baby’s arrival. However, one thing that’s equally important is a pregnant woman’s mental health. This app takes care of that.
 
Yes, you’ll find the common features like resources and information on pregnancy topics like nutrition, what to pack in your hospital bag, breastfeeding and lactation, but the heart of the app is meditation, “for every step of your journey to motherhood.” 
 
The app features week-by-week meditations crafted for every step of your pregnancy journey and motherhood. If you’re getting anxious about everything that’s happening around you, this app can give you a respite and helps you focus on the more important things.
 
The Expectful App is free to download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
