Abstract
Methods and a device (10) for charting fetal movements. The device (10) may record ten fetal movements in a session, wherein each movement is recorded by pressing a button (12) on the device (10). The device (10) may display an additional footprint icon (28) each time the button (12) is pressed, wherein the user can count the recorded movements during the session. The device (10) may record the elapsed time (KickTime) for each session and store up to ten KickTimes so that the user can review the frequency of the movements from one sequence to the next. The device (10) may also have a sound recording and playback function, where user may record the fetal heartbeat for playback. The device (10) may store and update the weeks and days of the mother's pregnancy progress. The device (10) may also calculate the countdown days-to-go and display the countdown if the countdown is less than 100.
