Abstract

In present days, countries including Sri Lanka have been developing themselves to provide their population with better life expectancy. Health has been an important point while talking about life expectancy. Low health decreases life expectancy, meanwhile, high health increases life expectancy. While talking about health, birth and death are the most important events linked to it. Birth is a point of life to create a living being which would have the ability to live through the future generations and expand it. Without birth, there wouldn’t be any beings living on the earth. But these days, people are experiencing problems in giving birth and a healthy pregnancy. Infants die while they are in the womb. Some of the infants are not healthy enough. So, it was better to propose a solution for the pregnant mothers and babies to develop life expectancy of Sri Lanka. The solution is a Mobile Application including a Nutrition Predictor, Medicine Effect Predictor, AI chatbot and Baby status predictor.
