Summary
This study is testing whether a smartphone app can help new mothers in Pennsylvania with postpartum education, symptom tracking, and parenting support. Sixty women who recently gave birth will use the app for 8 weeks and answer surveys about how easy it is to use and whether it meets their needs. The goal is to see if the app improves understanding of critical postpartum symptoms and positive parenting.
