Does Doti replace a doctor?

No. Doti helps you understand and prepare, quoting from doctor-reviewed content or trusted health sources and showing the source. For signs that need checking, Doti always advises seeing a doctor.

Where does Momby's information come from?

From content reviewed by doctors at Momby, and from sources such as Vietnam's Ministry of Health, WHO, UNICEF and major hospitals. Each article lists its sources. Vaccine and check-up schedules follow how things work in Vietnam.

Is my family's data safe?

Your book and diary are private by default; only the people you invite to your baby's profile can see them. Momby does not sell personal data and does not send health data to advertising tools. You can delete your account at any time, in the app or on the web.

Can my partner and relatives use it with me?

Yes. Each person has their own account and joins your baby's profile through an invitation link. Whatever one person logs, the whole family sees.

Which stage is Momby for?

From the day you find out you're pregnant through your child's early years. The book, reminders and diary follow your baby through pregnancy and the first two years; milestone articles go up to age 5.

Does Momby cost anything?

Logging, the book, reminders and sharing with family always work in full. A few Doti questions are included each day; Momby Plus is for families who want to ask more and is bought in the app.

Where can I use Momby?

On your phone (iOS and Android) and on the web. On the web you can read the weekly articles, see your book and timeline, and ask Doti; quick daily logging is easiest in the app.

Common signs of labour

Updated 25 Oct 2026

"Labour begins when you start having uterine contractions that are spaced apart and grow gradually from mild to strong. The signs of labour are as follows:

- Feeling pain each time your belly tightens. It progresses as labour goes on: regular, getting stronger, longer and closer together.

- Pinkish mucus discharge from the vagina (the "show").

- Watery fluid leaking from the vagina (amniotic fluid).

- The cervix changes and gradually opens as labour progresses.

Labour for a first baby lasts longer: about 16 - 24 hours; for subsequent babies: about 8 - 16 hours.

Some mums experience false labour in the last weeks of pregnancy. False labour also has irregular, uneven uterine contractions that do not clearly increase in frequency or intensity. These contractions do not cause you pain. Your cervix hardly progresses after a period of monitoring.

When you notice signs that labour has begun, stay calm, go to the hospital and follow the instructions of the health staff and doctors.
