Testimonials
From doulas who used it during real births.
Already used during real labor support experiences.
“BirthLink helps me time and again. During early labor, seeing both the frequency and duration of the contractions helps me understand whether labor is becoming established and whether there is still time before we need to leave for the hospital.…”
Sharon Yaakovov
Doula
“It really helped me understand where my client was in labor and when to tell her it was time to leave for the hospital.”
Sharon marom
Birth doula
“Seeing contractions live completely transforms the birth support experience for both doula and midwife! An excellent app that keeps improving—highly recommended for every doula and birthing person.”

The Solution
A contraction timer your client can share with you live
Your client times contractions from her phone. You see the pattern live in your dashboard — clearly, quietly, and without waiting for the next update.
Built for Doulas
Built for doulas, not just parents
Most contraction timers are made for the person in labor. BirthLink is different.
With BirthLink, your client can time contractions from her phone, while you follow the pattern remotely in real time from your own dashboard.
No screenshots. No repeated “how far apart are they?” texts. Just a clear live view of contraction duration, frequency, and recent activity — so you can stay informed while your client continues timing.
Use Cases
When doulas use BirthLink
BirthLink fits naturally into the moments where clarity matters most.
Your client is in early labor at home
You are waiting to understand whether contractions are becoming consistent
Your client keeps sending screenshots or updates
You want to follow the pattern without asking for repeated timing details
You support clients remotely before joining them in person
You want a simple way to review the most recent contraction activity
The Problem
Screenshots don’t tell the full story.
BirthLink is not meant to replace communication between a doula and her client. It gives doulas a clearer way to stay in the loop between messages — especially during a long latent phase, when the couple is resting, or when they simply need a quiet moment to themselves.
Instead of piecing together scattered screenshots or waiting for the next update, you can open BirthLink and see the contraction pattern as it develops.
How It Works
Contraction timer with doula sharing — in 5 simple steps
From sending the link to seeing the contraction pattern live — simple, clear, and easy to share.
The doula sends a private BirthLink timing link
Generate a secure, personalized link from your dashboard — each client gets their own, and the link only works for her session.
The client opens the link and starts timing contractions
She taps once to start and once to stop — just like any contraction timer. No account needed, no download. It’s that simple to share contractions with your doula.
BirthLink tracks duration and intervals
Each contraction’s length and the gap between contractions are captured and organized into a clear timeline. Patterns start to emerge as more data comes in.
The doula follows the contraction pattern live
From her dashboard, the doula sees duration, interval, and recent trend for every contraction. Live labor updates for doulas mean she knows when to check in without texting.
No app download is required for the client
Everything runs in the browser. Before labor, share contractions with your doula by sending a link. When labor starts, she opens it and timing is live.
That is the whole of it — a link to your client, and the pattern live on your screen.

The Founder
Created by a Doula, for Doulas.
BirthLink was created by Sivan Potash, a practicing birth doula and childbirth educator.
After years of supporting laboring clients, she experienced the same challenge every doula knows: trying to understand what is happening through screenshots, text messages, and phone calls.
BirthLink was built to create a better way for doulas and clients to stay connected during labor.
