Get to know Count the Kicks Baby Save Emerson! Her mom Lindsey counted kicks every day using the FREE Count the Kicks app and contacted her provider and went in to get things checked.
"Our little lady moved so much, I would on most days count her kicks in under three minutes. Then one night after work I felt like she wasn’t moving her normal rate. It took 55 minutes to get five kicks. I started to get nervous, and called the nurse on call. She said to count again in an hour. Later that night I counted again, I got 10 kicks in 37 minutes but still knew this was not her ‘normal.’ We decided to ease our mind and go to the hospital and hear her heartbeat. Once at the hospital things took a turn, her heartbeat was strong, but not showing the reactive beats they wanted, after a 30-minute ultrasound and no movement from our little girl, the doctor scheduled a C-section. We are so thankful that we knew what was normal movements for her, and went in when things didn’t feel right. We are forever thankful for the positive outcome that came from that night."
Have you heard Baby Skyler's story? His mom, Taylor, learned about Count the Kicks in her childbirth education class, and was using the Count the Kicks app every day to track her baby’s movement. She was 35 weeks along when she noticed that he wasn’t moving as much and that it was taking longer
than normal to get his 10 kicks, so she contacted her provider and headed to the hospital.
“The doctors told me that I saved his life by coming in and getting checked out. We still do not know the exact reason as to why his movement decreased, but I will forever be thankful that I was informed about Count the Kicks because it saved his life and made me a mom.”
REMEMBER RUBY, whose amazing baby save story appeared on Good Morning America?!? She kicked, mom counted, and doctors brought her into this world safely!
"Count the Kicks deeply impacted our family by helping us safely deliver our baby girl Ruby. Had I not been counting the kicks and using the app, Ruby likely would not be with us today. We are so thankful and grateful for Count the Kicks and all who work so hard to help moms take care of their unborn babies. We can't wait to watch Ruby grow up and see all that she was made to do! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"
