The labor-day app
Tell everyone the moment labor starts. In one tap.
When contractions get real, the last thing you want to do is text twenty people one by one. The Belly Button alerts your whole circle the instant you press it, so everyone who loves you finds out at the same time.
Free on iPhone and Android. Or read the blog.
How it works
Three steps, and you are ready for the big day
Set up your circle
Add the people you want to reach: your partner, your mom, your best friend, your doula, your whole birth team. It takes a couple of minutes, and you only do it once.
Press the button when it is time
When labor begins, you press your belly button. That is the whole thing. No group text to start, no phone tree, no scrolling your contacts while you breathe through a contraction.
Everyone finds out together
The people you chose get a clear, unmistakable alert on their phones the second you send it. No one is left waiting, and no one is left out.
