About the study

Researchers have developed a mobile app to support women to weigh themselves regularly during pregnancy and track their weight gain.


The app provides feedback on whether weight gain is within, higher, or lower than recommended ranges, and can help you find resources on weight management during pregnancy.


Women who take part in the study will be entered into a draw and 8 of them will win a baby bundle worth at least £100.
