ABSTRACT:
Methods and a device for storing and tracking a pregnancy progress and for keeping up to a predetermined number of sound messages. The user of the device records sound messages, wherein the sound messages include a fetal heartbeat sound from a doctor's Doppler equipment, other personal messages from family or friends, and milestones (such as baby's first cry, first word, etc). The device includes a display screen that displays footprint icons, each of which corresponds to one of the sound messages stored in the device, whereby the user can count the number of sound messages by counting the icons. The display screen also displays an indication of pregnancy period from inception in weeks and days, and the countdown if the countdown is less than 100. During recording or playback of each sound message, the display screen sequentially displays the footprint icons to perform an animation.
