This app worked great during my labor. I was thinking of using a stop watch but decided to buy this app. I'm glad I did. It helped me And the baby's dad out a lot. And now we have a beautiful baby boy. =)

Maybe not the slickest looking app for counting contractions, but we didn't want to risk crashing or accidentally losing data - we just wanted a reliable app that would work under pressure. I just used this app during my wife's labor and it worked like a charm. It was so easy that she could learn to use it while she was actually in labor (and she's not even an iPhone user, so it was all completely new to her). Nice, thought out features like being able to delete a contraction (if it's a false alarm). Just does what it's supposed to without any bells and whistles; I'd recommend it without hesitation.

We only used this app once (for the birth of our daughter) but it was really helpful! Great way to calculate and keep track of contractions.

This seems to be the best app I've found for timing contractions and tracking symptoms. There is a glitch on the symbols in the calendar, however. Every time I exit the app, the symbols reset to default. Waiting to here back from the developer on the glitch. Otherwise great app.

Cannot even get this to start & have emailed with the company but no fix yet. I wouldn't buy it until they explicitly say there's a fix. I can't even get a refund thus far...

This is a great app. Most of the issues in prior reviews seem to have been addressed. More important, this is the only app I've found that measures frequency (the time between contractions) correctly. Frequency is supposed to be measured between the START of the first contraction and the start of the next. Labor Mate gets it right. BEWARE - most other counters measure frequency from the END of the first contraction and the start of the next. This is wrong and could be dangerous - it might cause you to go to the hospital too late. Good job Labor Mate for getting it right! Would be nice to be able to chart contractions and email the data - maybe in a future update. Overall a great app.

Worked great with my iPhone. As a first time mom, I did not have a clue how to count contractions. This app was very helpful and it documented all the info. I was able to tell my doctor exactly how far apart my contractions were while I was at home. I did not have to waste a trip to the hospital.

Used it a few times when we thought baby was coming and it worked great. On the actual night the baby was coming it malfunctioned. I'd hit start and the time wouldn't move. Hit stop and it would record the interval but not the duration. One star for failing when it was needed.

I'm a midwife and have used labor mate at many births, I've never had any problems with it. It makes timing the contractions easy peasy.
