The happiest moment for any lady is the time they conceive and give a new life to a baby. In modern cities, pregnant ladies are monitored by sophisticated instruments in modern hospitals. As these ladies are basically educated, they get more relevant information from internet and books which helps to lead a healthy pregnancy and delivery period. But, the pregnant ladies in rural areas are normally undergoing health checkup in nearby government hospitals. Due to their personal pressure in their daily life, they may skip the checkup period. They may also not take proper diet and tablets which they are supposed to do at that period. Hence, in this paper mobile based health care monitoring system is proposed which makes periodically send messages to the rural women in their pregnancy period. After their initial checkup and registration, periodic counseling and reminders are given to the rural ladies for their easy and safe delivery. This also provides guidelines to bring up the new born in a healthy and hygienic way. This will guide them in their child growth for a minimum of two years. By this way, the rural women are properly educated about the do's and don't during pre delivery and post delivery period. Hence, it facilitates a healthy growth of the baby in the rural areas.
