YOUR BABY'S FETAL KICKS - mymidwifesally

Once your baby starts moving/kicking , your baby should not stop moving or kicking

Quickening is the first movement of your baby and usually occurs between 16 to 24 weeks of gestation

Always pay close attention to the movement of the baby

At least once in a day get a quiet place and time to pay attention to your baby’s movement

Be familiar with it.

Report if baby’s fetal kicks have slowed or excessive!

Don’t assume your baby is asleep!

If you have doubts just call your doctor or midwife.

He may listen to the fetal heart rate with a doppler, request a scan or do further investigations

Your normal fetal heart rate is between 120 to 160 bpm.
