Its mission is to help parents navigate pregnancy from the moment they discover they are pregnant to childbirth.

The premium subscription includes video courses by global pregnancy experts covering a range of topics including mental health, breastfeeding, Q&A sessions with experienced midwives, pre- and postnatal yoga guidance, breathing exercises, and interactive tools such as a kick counter.

Parents can also follow baby’s development, with 42 weeks of beautifully created 3D images that include info related to weekly development.
