My OBGYN has told me after 28 weeks I need to feel ten kicks everyday? But according to doctors on this app they say every hour which is right ?

Question

Answer

Anything less than 10 every hour or two IS  a cause for concern after 28 weeks. Every doctor will tell you this.

Answer

Not all doctors even suggest kick counts, because it's almost just fear mongering. You know your baby, and so if they don't move for more than an hour, you will know. I think counts are just in case, and might be helpful if people aren't usually very inclined to notice their bodies.
If you are afraid that they haven't moved in an hour then the next step is to eat or drink something sugary and lay on your left side for about an hour to see if they get active again.
If they don't, call your doc or go to er to be monitored.

Answer

Mine said 10 movements per 2 hours.

Answer

I was told 5 an hour, but I've only had to do counts once due to decreased movement. You should figure out when baby is most active, and around that time of day pay more attention to what you feel. If you notice a decrease in movement that's when you need to do your counts

Answer

It depends on each person and how active your baby is. You need to establish a pattern first then you can do your own kick count.
Some babies won't kick 10 times a day and some will kick much more.
My first born would only kick at night so for hours in the day nothing I did would make her move.

Answer

Mine said 6 in 2 hours, but like others have said, everyone's baby moves different,I only worry if I haven't noticed any movement in a while, so I'll drink something cold and sugary and sit or lay down until I've felt baby move around several times.
 I have a toddler so I can't exactly keep track of the baby's movements all the time to make sure he's moving 10 times every hour, that's just not doable. As long as your baby is moving regularly you shouldn't need to worry :)

Answer

My doc doesn't do kick counts till 32w. She says lay on side once in  AM and once in PM and should have 10 kicks in your...

Answer

Basically your doctor is saying if you notice your baby's activity decreases, you should do a kick count where you lay on your side and try to feel 10 kicks within that hour. If you don't then try drinking something cold and sugary and try feeling 10 kicks again while laying on your side. If that still doesn't work then contact your doctor.
