Make counting your baby’s movements part of your daily routine in the third trimester.

The safest choice is always the ABCs: Alone. Back. Crib. Every sleep.
Third trimester: Count the Kicks.
Fourth trimester: Practice safe sleep.

REMINDER: You know your baby better than anyone. Trust your instincts and speak up if something feels off.
Remember to monitor your baby’s movements every single day, at the same time of day, when your baby is most active.

Counting kicks is a simple way to learn your baby’s usual movement pattern during the third trimester and notice when something feels different.
And remember, all movements (except hiccups) count - not just kicks!
