After enduring 6 years of infertility, one mom felt it was essential to capture every moment of her ‘miracle’ pregnancy. Wednesday marked #BumpDay, a day dedicated to encouraging women everywhere to share photos of their baby bumps, whether past or present, to promote awareness about maternal health care globally. One mom took #BumpDay to a whole new level with an extraordinary time-lapse video showcasing her bump’s growth.
Meet Sarah Thompson, the proud mother of toddler Max. She created an innovative app called Preggo, which transforms everyday bump photos into beautiful time-lapse videos. With a background in computer animation, Sarah shared with Home Insemination Kit that her profession, paired with her passion for photography and personal struggle with infertility, fueled her desire to develop Preggo—a free app designed for expectant mothers to chronicle their pregnancy journeys.
“I was incredibly thankful to finally be pregnant after so many years of trying, and I wanted to capture every second of it,” she explains. Determined to take a photo almost every day throughout her pregnancy, Sarah aimed to cherish the experience and document her child’s development. Thanks to her animation skills, creating a video from her collection of photos was a “no-brainer.”
“When I shared the final video, I received a flood of messages from people curious about how I made it and how they could do the same,” she recalls. This inspired her to create an app that would enable “everyone and anyone” to produce their own time-lapse videos because personal time-lapse creations are just plain awesome! “It’s such a special keepsake, and I wanted to make it accessible for everyone. That’s how Preggo came to life,” she adds.
Recently, Sarah excitedly shared on Instagram the news that she’s expecting baby number two in just a few months. We can’t wait to see her next Baby Time-Lapse featuring Mom and big brother Max!
