Choose a time each day when your baby is usually active
Sit or lie down in a comfortable position
Focus on your baby’s movements
Count each kick, roll, swish, or jab as one movement
Count until you feel 10 movements
Note how long it takes to reach 10 movements
Repeat at the same time every day
Contact your healthcare provider if movements are much less than usual or you do not feel 10 movements in 2 hours
