my dr say he dont usually ask mummies to count kicks, its unnecessary stress.
he says so long thru out the day there is movement ,its good. after some time, u might realised baby's movement pattern. some baby are more active, some are less active. some like to kick, some roll instead and some prefers to do "yoga" 😂
I personally just monitor movement "every hour" . like even if its 1 kick i will just look at the time and mentally register that baby moved and i will go on with my day.
also take note, there are some days baby is just a bit lazy.. 😂 like some days move a little less then normal and thats okay. just like us, some days we just wanna stay in bed and sleep all day. 😄
