I never count it like that. I started counting after I woke up. For example, if that day I woke up at 10am and baby's kicking me at 1025am, I put the timing at 1025am. And I only count the hard kick. If slow slow kick i did not count it. And if the baby kicking me few times in a minute, I still count as 1 kick. Of I completed 10 hard kick at 815pm, I put the ending time 815pm. As long as in 12 hours, you completed 10 kicks. My nurse like it that way. Because she said that I am more honest in taking care of my baby kicks. Here is my baby kick column if you want to get better idea of it
yep kicking count starts from 9am. the gap between kick count is 25-30min. meaning that if the first kick u felt is 9:10am, the second will be around 9:35am..if u felt any kick between 9:10am-9:35am...it will count as 1 kick only. repeat the process until u get complete 10 kicks. if u have difficulty feeling the baby kicks during the daytime, set the timer at the phone. when the time comes, sit and relax, can press lighty ur belly or drink chilled water to trigger bby movement.
thank you!
