What are fetal movement counts (aka “kick counts”)?
In the third trimester (after 28 weeks), you should pay attention to your fetus’ movements. Fetus’ go through sleep and wake cycles so they are not always moving. During active times for your fetus and when you are paying specific attention to the activity, you should feel 10 movements in 2 hours. If you do not feel this amount of movement, please call our office as it can be a sign of fetal stress.
