The World Health Organization has released some disturbing figures concerning maternal fatalities in India. According to their findings, at least one Indian woman dies during pregnancy and delivery every five minutes. "Of the 529,000 maternal deaths that occur each year, 136,000, or 25.7 percent, occur in India." The WHO reported that "the incidence of emergency postpartum hysterectomies is approximately 83 per 100,000, with a maternal mortality rate of 17.7 percent and a perinatal mortality rate of 37.5 percent." The purpose of this research is to present a novel method for monitoring the fetal body with maternal characteristics such as movement (kicks) and heart rate by employing an accelerometer sensor and a heart rate pulse sensor. Because of its relationship with various fetal health issues, monitoring fetal movement (FM) is considered a significant aspect of fetal well-being evaluation. Fetal distress, fetal growth limitation, hypoxia, and other conditions are examples. However, current common techniques of FM measurement, like ultrasonography, and MRI, have limitations in clinical settings. A fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring gadget is in great demand for monitoring fetal health issues in the home. In this study, the system displays a fetal heart rate and monitors various parameters that are communicated over the Internet of Thing
