Australian OTC pharmaceutical company, Paedpharm (now Care Pharmaceuticals), has relaunched Maybe Baby – the mini microscope which helps women predict when they are most likely to conceive – through pharmacies nationally. Paedpharm has acquired the product from Optix, who launched Maybe Baby on the Australian market in 1999. Paedpharm has refreshed the product with new packaging and more comprehensive information and instructions to benefit users. A new web site has also been launched – www.maybebaby.com.au – which is designed to be a valuable source of information to those wanting to fall pregnant.
Maybe Baby uses saliva to pinpoint when women ovulate as a rise in oestrogen levels can be detected by examining dried saliva. After users apply a small amount of saliva to the lens and wait for it to dry, they will see patterns through the viewfinder – a fern pattern indicates the time is right to try for a baby, while a pebble pattern signifies the non-fertile period.
