Hi,
From which week should we start counting the baby kicks? Right now I started my 27th week. I feel the baby kick a lot in the afternoon but not much in the mornings. Is she alright? As I read somewhere that they should kick 10 times in every two hrs. I don't think my baby is doing that or am I too early to think about that? Please let me know.
Archie replied. Dear Dev,
Your baby is fine.
The kickcounts are done when you don't feel baby move throughout the day. or not much. In this case you choose time (any time day or night, preferably after meal) and rest on the bed on your left side, in two hours you should be able to get 10 counts. If your baby moves a lot in particular time of day and not all the time that means your baby is sleeping, which is OK.
Know your baby movement pattern and keep track on that. If a day you don't feel move in the morning and on the regular time then you should call your Dr, than coming on the net. That' when you need to worry, not when baby moves and kicks on his/her pattern.

Good luck
Archie
