WebMD Pregnancy App Features:

Pregnancy apps that are currently available offer singular functionality, forcing expectant parents to switch between multiple apps in order to track and monitor health and wellness information. Each additional app consumes valuable memory, impacting device performance.  WebMD Pregnancy solves this issue by integrating physician-reviewed content and functionality into a singular app, including:

• Full customization of app content and information to suit the individual needs of parents, including content for multiple births and for parents with pre-existing medical conditions
• Integration of appointment scheduling, symptom tracking and contraction counting to offer more valuable interaction with physicians.
•  ‘Ask My Doctor’ feature proves a list of the most common questions to ask your doctor
• ‘Baby Bump’ slideshow to document weekly changes during pregnancy
• Journal with customized chapters and entries, serving as a scrapbook to chronicle the pregnancy journey
• Expansive library of physician reviewed articles and multimedia content
