Application Description
Is someone in your family or someone you know pregnant? If so, the Labor Coach is an essential item for you!
With the Labor Coach you use your Palm OS device like a stopwatch to time labor contractions. No more paper! No stylus required! No more time spent computing contraction statistics! Dads using the Labor Coach can concentrate on helping the mother-to-be!
Features Include:
- 1 button press contraction start/end
- Multiple graphs to display trending information
- Statistics
- Export data to the MemoPad
- Bonus birthing tips and information
- Much, much more!
So when the birth attendant asks about her contractions, turn to the Labor Coach (the best contraction timer for the PalmOS) for fast, accurate answers.
Updated Description:
New in Version 3.3
- Added support for newer PDAs with either a jog dial or a 5-way navigator. Pressing the button or jog dial starts/stops a contraction. The time-out feature of the PDA must be off for this to function correctly when contractions are further apart.

I would have reviewed this program as "good" if it had worked properly- But on the big day, it crashed several times (losing information each time) and graphs only displayed first couple contractions (if I tried to change graph settings, it would crash the software).
My reccomendation: get a stopwatch, pen and paper.
Response from the Developer:
This user did not contact customer support at all, and had plenty of
opportunity to do so if there were issues. That is why the software
can be used and tested before purchase for free to make sure it works
as desired. Had this user contacted support, I am confident his
issues could have been prevented. Please note the other superlative
reviews showing that this person's findings are anomalous. This
software is very stable and has been for a very long time.

EXCELLENT program! Allowed me to time my own contractions so I would know when I was in true labor. Did all the math for us - made life MUCH easier! Highly recommend this software to all pregnant women!

My wife and I used Labor Coach for our last birth, and it was great! No more fumbling around in the dark to check the time, find the page with timing notes, and figuring out length and time between contractions. It's all done for you, and we only had to push a button to do it. The graphs were a nice feature to see how the labor progressed. Very useful labor-saving (for the coach) application.

This is a great piece of software...a must have for anyone about to give birth. I love the graphing feature which easily tells you how your labor is progressing. I also think the 1-button contraction timing is extremely useful, because it makes the software so easy to use. I highly recommend the Labor Coach for anyone who is going to give birth!
