Follow these simple steps to get started with tracking your pregnancy symptoms securely:
Log Symptoms: In the "Track Pregnancy Symptoms" section, select a symptom from the list, rate its severity (1-5), add optional notes, and click "Log Symptom".
Count Fetal Kicks: Click "Record a Kick" each time you feel a movement. Aim for 10 kicks in 2 hours after 28 weeks; the tool alerts you when you reach 10.
Time Contractions: Click "Start Contraction" when one begins and "Stop Contraction" when it ends. The tool tracks duration and frequency, alerting if contractions are close (under 10 minutes apart).
View History & Trends: Check logged symptoms, their frequency, and patterns in the dedicated sections.
Use Advanced Tools: Export your data to share with your doctor or reset all data if needed.
Read Health Tips: Refer to the tips section for common symptoms and when to seek medical help.
Always consult a healthcare professional for any concerns – this tool is for tracking only, not diagnosis.
How This Tool Works
This web-based tool is designed for privacy and ease:
Data Storage: All your entries (symptoms, kicks, contractions) are saved locally in your browser's storage (localStorage). No data is sent to servers, ensuring complete privacy.
Functionality: Built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Uses Three.js for subtle 3D animations (heart, sphere, wave) to enhance visuals without affecting performance.
Alerts & Calculations: JavaScript handles kick counting, contraction timing (using Date objects for durations), and frequency checks. Trends are calculated by counting symptom occurrences.
Export/Reset: Data is exported as a JSON file for easy sharing; reset clears local storage.
Animations: Non-intrusive 3D elements rotate, pulse, or wave to represent care, fetus, and calm.
The tool runs entirely in your browser, offline-capable after first load, and is optimized for mobile and desktop use.
