Abstract

This paper investigates the use of an application, Baby+, designed to support pregnant women in Pakistan. Baby+ is a localized mobile application, which helps pregnant women in keeping track of their pregnancy and gives them more control over it by providing them with relevant information. The application was designed after investigating the needs of pregnant women in the Pakistani context. In our early evaluation, women appreciated the design and functionality of Baby+ and valued it as an assistive tool, which has a potential of aiding the pregnancy health management in the region.
