How does Hilary Erickson's technique for managing pregnancy anxiety with kick counts outperform other methods?

Hilary’s approach isn’t “do kick counts or else”; it is how you use that time that makes the difference.

Instead of constantly worrying if baby is still alive, Hilary teaches you to:

• Use kick counts only in the 3rd trimester, once a day
• Focus on “how long it takes YOUR baby to get 10 movements,” not hitting some outside standard
• Turn that time into positive connection: figure out baby’s position, daydream about your future together, and involve your partner or kids

Studies show structured kick counts (vs just “noticing movement”) lower anxiety and improve outcomes. Hilary’s twist is making it practical and emotionally grounding, not obsessive—so you get reassurance and a clear pattern to compare against, without spiraling.
