contraction timer
Birth interval monitor
A contraction timer is a device or app used during labor to track the frequency and duration of uterine contractions.
Users typically tap a button when a contraction starts and again when it ends, allowing them to see patterns: The contraction timer showed they were five minutes apart and lasting a minute each.
This information helps determine when to head to the hospital.
