PeriCare Tracker

PeriCare Tracker is a specialized postpartum recovery companion designed for vaginal birth mothers within their critical first 6 weeks. Following childbirth, perineal lacerations and episiotomy wounds require consistent hygiene routines, wound assessment, and precise timing for ice packs or warm sitz baths. PeriCare Tracker keeps your recovery on schedule, secure, and entirely offline.
