Expecting moms should definitely consider downloading the Pregnancy Wheel app developed by Dave Duprey. This iPhone app is simply a circular slide chart which assists future mothers in identifying the most likely date of their delivery. This is quiet clearly one of best iPhone Apps for Pregnant women. You can download this app for your iPhone , iPad and iPod Touch via Apple app store. Overall, the chart is quite simple to read with the outer part of the circle labeled with months and the inner parts of the circle containing important information including the current date, the baby’s age, the current trimester the mother is in, the actual crown rump length, and the latest biparietal diameter (BPD). Located in the center of the chart between each month are significant markers such as the date of the last menstrual period, date of conception, the beginning or end of the second trimester, the beginning or end of the third trimester and most importantly the due date. Located beside the due date is the baby’s future astrological symbol according to the baby’s birthday. As an example, if a baby was conceived on July 6th, and the estimated birth date would be on March 29th the following year so the baby would be an Aries.
Another helpful feature of this app is that it informs potential mothers of certain time periods during their pregnancy where specific tests should be done. These examinations include tests for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), Group B Streptococcus Screen (GBS), and routine ultrasound screening. This app also recommends several genetic tests which include Nuchal Translucency (NT), First Trimester Serum Screening (FTS), and Maternal Serum Screening (MSS). Other than that several important and sophisticated tests such as Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) and Amniocentesis (AMNIO) are recommended with this app.
This app is quite simple to use and just by tapping in the middle of the real will enable a teardrop pointer that saves the users last set position. Just in case users become confused, they can simply tap the “i” icon located in the top right hand area of the screen that show instructions to users on how to implement the wheel chart and gives details on the acronyms used throughout this app. another important thing to notice at the information section of this app, is that expecting mothers should still see a physician and this app should not be entirely used as a substitute for professional medical care.
Women that are expecting or plan to have children should definitely try this app. It is quite user friendly and straightforward. The layout is quite simple since it only has one screen which holds all of the information required plus a separate info icon for additional reference. Users can download this app at the app store for just $3.99. This price might be a bit too expensive for some people but definitely worth the price for future mothers that want to precisely time their pregnancy and delivery.
