Count the number of fetal movements for 2 hours, preferably after a meal or when the baby is most active.

Count fetal movements for a total of 5 minutes at a time, ensuring that the count is completed within a single session.

Record the kicks in a daily log and report any significant decrease in movements to the healthcare provider.

Begin counting movements at the same time each day to maintain consistency in tracking.

Perform the kick count in a standing position to maximize the chance of feeling movements.

Begin fetal kick counts at 15 weeks.
