True Joy Birthing

Birth Plan + Doula Support

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

True Joy Birthing is the birth plan app built by a real doula — with advocacy language that actually works in a hospital, trauma-aware birth preferences, and a shared space for you and your doula to prepare together. CREATE A BIRTH PLAN THAT WORKS WHEN IT MATTERS Walk through every decision — labor, delivery, postpartum, and newborn care — with plain-language explanations of what each option really means in a hospital setting. No generic checklists. No medical jargon. Just honest, practical guidance from a doula who has been in the room. • Interactive birth plan builder covering 5 comprehensive sections • Guided video walkthroughs for every section of your plan • Real advocacy scripts you can use word-for-word with nurses and doctors • Export a clean PDF your care team can read in under 2 minutes • Trauma-aware prompts that acknowledge your past experiences KNOW YOUR OPTIONS — AND YOUR WORDS Learn what to say when: — A nurse suggests Pitocin and you want to understand your options — You need a minute to think before agreeing to a procedure — Your birth starts drifting from your plan and you want to speak up — You want to ask "What happens if we wait?" SHARE YOUR PLAN WITH YOUR WHOLE TEAM Invite your partner, doula, or midwife to view and collaborate on your plan. Everyone stays on the same page — literally. FOR DOULAS AND MIDWIVES True Joy Birthing Pro gives birth workers a professional toolkit: • Client management and visit tracking • Appointment scheduling and notes • Contracts and invoicing • Shared birth plan access with clients • Leads and certification tracking Free for moms. Pro tools for doulas and midwives. ABOUT TRUE JOY BIRTHING Founded by a birth doula who watched too many moms walk into hospitals unprepared — not because they didn't care, but because nobody gave them the real information in plain language. True Joy Birthing exists to close that gap. We don't give medical advice. We don't shame any birth path. We help you make informed choices and give you the words to stand by them.

Baby Development Feature (New) - Weekly baby development cards on the Mom dashboard and weekly tips screens, showing size comparisons and growth milestones for every week of pregnancy (weeks 4–40) - Graceful fallback to icon placeholder if illustration unavailable - Alt text accessibility labels on all images Onboarding Overhaul - Subscription/trial step added to provider onboarding — doulas and midwives now route through plans & pricing before the tutorial, with a "Skip for now" option - Back buttons added to doula and midwife onboarding screens - Tutorial persistence fixed — onboarding completion is now saved to the backend via API, so completing onboarding actually sticks across sessions (no more getting sent back to onboarding after re-login) - Competing root guard fixed — users now consistently land on the intro walkthrough instead of being dumped into role-specific onboarding - Removed stale (auth)/tutorial.tsx that conflicted with the canonical root tutorial - Smart quote and NaN validation fixes in zip code lookup and years-in-practice fields - Removed diagnostic stack traces shown to users in production Messaging Bug Fixes - WebSocket auth overhauled — replaced broken JWT decode with proper session token lookup - Multiple concurrent WebSocket connections now supported per user - Duplicate messages eliminated (dedup by message_id when both WebSocket and HTTP deliver) Marketplace Improvements - Request Consult button fix — removed nested touchable conflict - Case-insensitive zip code search - Loading state with spinner while fetching providers - Team status (share/consultation requests) now loads in background without wiping the provider list on failure
