In this paper, we present a device that is used to measure the fetal heart rate during the time of pregnancy. The major component used for this detection is Fetal Digital stethoscope sensor which is to be placed on the abdomen of the pregnant and the signals are processed by the micro-controller used and the accurate fetal heart rate is identified and sent as a text message to the respective mobile phone through the usage of GSM module and also by the usage of EMG sensor the uterus contraction also be simulated as the output on the desktop. This system is very flexible and low cost helps the patient to monitor the fetal heart rate in home.
