Question 1

What is live contraction tracking for doulas?

Accepted Answer

Live contraction tracking for doulas lets you see your client's contraction data — duration, frequency, and pattern — in real time as she tracks. Instead of waiting for screenshots or texts, you follow the rhythm of labor from your own dashboard.

Question 2

How is BirthLink different from a regular contraction timer?

Accepted Answer

Most contraction timers are built only for the birthing person. BirthLink is different: it lets the doula follow the contraction pattern live. Your client times contractions from her phone, and you see the progress in real time from your dashboard. It's a contraction timer with doula sharing built in.

Question 3

Can the doula see contractions in real time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Once your client starts tracking, BirthLink pushes contraction data to your dashboard live. You see duration, interval, and the overall pattern as each contraction is recorded — no refreshing or check-ins needed.

Question 4

Does the client need to download an app?

Accepted Answer

No. Your client opens a private link in her phone browser and starts timing immediately — no app download, no account required. She can share contractions with her doula from the moment labor begins.

Question 5

Is BirthLink medical advice?

Accepted Answer

No. BirthLink is a contraction timing and visibility tool. It does not replace professional medical judgment, clinical guidance, or direct communication between doula and client. Always consult a medical provider for any labor concerns.
