Answer
Hilary’s core concepts around baby kick counts are:
- Start in the third trimester (around 27–28 weeks) and make it a regular habit
- You’re always comparing your baby to your baby, not to anyone else’s pattern
- Choose a time when baby is usually active and track how long it takes to feel 10 movements
- Notice your baby’s normal pattern over days, not moment to moment
- If you notice a big change, call your provider right away
- Kick counts can actually reduce anxiety when used as a calm, intentional check-in, and a chance to bond and involve your family
Would you like a simple step‑by‑step routine you can follow for daily kick counts?
