About Braxton Hicks
A fast, private counter for Braxton Hicks, baby's kicks, and real contractions. Free, with no ads and no account — made by a dad for his wife, and shared so it can help other moms too. Made for the moment itself: one tap logs a Braxton Hicks, and the two numbers that matter — today's count and the rolling 60-minute count — are always on screen. KICK COUNTER • Turn it on and a second button appears beside the Braxton Hicks one, on iPhone and Apple Watch • Kicks today, and how long the last ten took — the count-to-10 measure providers ask about CONTRACTION MODE, READY FOR LABOR • Switch in one tap from the Track screen when it's the real thing • Start/Stop timer records each contraction's length • Live "since last started" and "last one lasted" counters — the numbers you actually watch • The 5-1-1 pattern as a checklist: about 5 min apart, about 1 min long, for about an hour, each with its current value and a tiny trend of how far apart they're getting • A notification when the pattern is reached • Discard a false start; a forgotten Stop is closed automatically and stays editable STATS THAT STAY OUT OF THE WAY • Hour-by-hour chart for any day, with scrubbing • 7-day view with weekly totals and daily average • In contraction mode: a minutes-apart trend and a log with length and spacing columns • Tap any entry to edit its time or duration, down to the second APPLE WATCH + WIDGETS • Full watch app: log from your wrist with the same counters • Watch-face complications and iPhone lock-screen widgets • Phone and watch sync instantly, both directions SHARE WITH YOUR PROVIDER Export a one-page PDF summary for appointments, or a complete CSV spreadsheet. OPTIONAL EXTRAS • Hourly alert: a notification if the rolling 60-minute count reaches your threshold (default 6 — the common "call your provider" guidance before 37 weeks) • Pregnancy week: set your due date to see the current week and time remaining PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. Your data lives on your devices and in your own private iCloud — nowhere else. This app is a tracker, not medical advice. Contact your provider about anything that concerns you.
