Mindful Birth

About this app

Created by award-winning antenatal, hypnobirthing and postnatal course provider, The Mindful Birth Group®, the Mindful Birth app is the only pregnancy app that allows you to choose your birth preference (vaginal or caesarean birth) and see information tailored to your preference and due time. If you change your mind at any time during your pregnancy, simply switch your preference on your profile page.

The unique mindful design will help you stay present in each week as you grow your baby and look forward to meeting them with this fully customisable app. All births and paths to pregnancy are supported through the inclusive features, design and language used.

Ratings and reviews

App is super easy to use and contains useful information to prepare for birth (e.g. relaxation MP3, hospital packing lists, surge timer etc.). I listen to the positive affirmation track on a regular basis and find it really reassuring. The only reason why I'm giving 4 out of 5 stars is that I expected a few more relaxation mp3s/birth affirmation tracks. I haven't used the surge timer yet but I intend to use it once the time comes.

I always found that the app frequently wouldn't open and after two or three clicks on icon it would open. Now for over the last week it has an error message to say its bugged and to contact developer, I have but no indication on when this will be fixed. I have had less bugs from free apps. I also wish there was more information on how baby is growing and changes on mum. I have found another pregnancy app to be more informative

Love this app! Love the weekly updates on both baby and Mum alongside a positive affirmation. It's nice that the app keeps you present by not allowing you to jump ahead. Really enjoy the relaxation tracks and would love to see more added in the future. Still got a little way to go but look forward to using the contraction timer and packing lists! Would be a great addition to add access to written positive affirmations that could be read as well as listened to in preparation for labour.
