Kick counts?

Question

Is it recommended to do kick counts everyday? I’m 31 weeks.

Answer

Honestly I didn't with either of my pregnancies. I monitored the movements and knew what felt normal if I was ever worried I drank juice and laid down then counted.

Answer

Kick counts every day are recommended if you are experiencing a higher risk for stillbirth with a condition such as gestational diabetes. Otherwise, you don’t necessarily need to do a formal kick count every day. It certainly doesn’t hurt though. It’s good to be aware of your baby’s typical routine.

Answer

Kick counts haven’t been recommended for a few years. 
You just need to recognise your baby’s usual pattern of movement and look out for any changes

Answer

I never did. As long as you feel consistent movements / patterns every day there is no need to really count. If you are worried you don’t feel movement or something Is off go into triage RIGHT AWAY

Answer

Honestly this is my second pregnancy and I have never done kick counts. During both pregnancies my daughters had routines of when they would move around a lot, usually at night. If they had quiet days it was only typically towards the end of my pregnancy and I would just try to drink some orange juice and lay down to promote kicking.

Answer

I don’t do kick counts every day only if I notice bub is less quite, but she she usually has a few days a week where she’s quieter than usual.

Answer

Not that I'm aware of. I only did kick counts on quiet days.

Answer

My first was a very active baby so I didn’t need it this one is a little bit more lazy but still very active so I don’t have to do kick counts

Answer

To be honest I’m almost 35 weeks in my third pregnancy and not once have I ever been told/had it mentioned to do kick counts at all let alone daily. 
I’ve just been told that if I feel movement is less then normal amount to be aware and drink/eat something to get baby moving and take notice of that and if baby doesn’t move to go into the maternity ward.

Answer

It is.  My kids moved so much though that I really never needed to.
