Having a high-risk pregnancy means you need specialized care from specially trained providers who have expertise in the management of a high-risk pregnancy (like a maternal-fetal medicine specialist).

Pro tip: If your pregnancy is considered high-risk, you should start monitoring your baby’s movements at 26 weeks. It’s easy to do using the FREE Count the Kicks app!

Stillbirth can happen to anyone, during any pregnancy, but research shows stillbirth can be prevented. A baby’s movements are an important sign of their well-being in the third trimester of pregnancy. That is why it’s so important to monitor your baby’s movements.

If your baby’s movements change, get checked out right away.

Stillbirth matters. Grief matters. Babies matter. Parents matter. Families matter. Because the impact of a stillbirth lasts a lifetime.

That’s why we are working to lower the stillbirth rate here in the United States through our proven Count the Kicks program.

Well-known pregnancy influencer, author and L&D nurse Jen Hamilton is busting myths about changes in fetal movement. She said it best: A change in your baby’s movements is a red flag.

Her advice? Go to the hospital and get checked, because you need to see what’s going on in there if you are worried.
