Breathe
A prenatal breath trainer, inspired by listening.
Gentle haptic pacing with airflow sensing. Your rhythm, measured, then quietly guided back on track. No phone in your face. Just a calm, tactile metronome.
Held in two hands, with no screen to look at.
Breath passes the sensor on its way through.
Sets the resistance of each breath.
A low-pressure differential sensor reads airflow onset and offset.

Each session saves cadence and comfort, shared with a midwife only if you choose.
So incredibly helpful to have some form of support, I really don't know how women do this themselves because I could never.
