Tip of the Week

This is a noninvasive way of monitoring the well-being of the baby. A compromised baby will decrease it´s movement to conserve energy for vital functions.

You should be familiar with your baby´s typcial movement patterns. Then you will be able to clearly identify a change.

If you are overdue, have had a previous stillbirth, your baby seems small for gestational age, or there is some other reason to be concerned about the baby´s well-being, you may want to do a kick test.

Counting should take place at a time when the baby is ordinarily active, and begin at the same time each day. Mother counts the first ten fetal movements and then stops. You will expect to notice the movements within a twelve hour period. (For most women it will be within the first hour.)

Another method requires counting movements for three separate time intervals (usually 30-60 minutes) each day.

Contact your health care provider immediately anytime you don´t count the previously-agreed upon number of movements.
