10 Kicks in less than 3 minutes?.............

Willosious

This still counts right? The baby started groovin and I started counting and she hit the 10 kick point in less than three minutes. Must have been the ice water I was drinking. I still am amazed when I feel her move around. Somtimes I almost cry. It is still so sureal.........

Ice water always does the trick for me too! Love feeling the little guy go crazy in there. I will definitely miss that so much once he is born!

I still haven't actually needed to do an official kick count. My LO is so active it's ridiculous. There are at least 3 times a day (morning, just after lunch & just after dinner) when the ninja goes crazy & does some kind of happy dance or something in there. I love watching my belly jump around - it's so surreal! I've tried to get video of it - but everytime I reach for the camera (my phone) the baby quiets down just long enough for me to put it down & then starts going again. It's too funny!

Most of my kick counts get me 10 kicks under 8 minutes, but I have had a couple in the 3 minute range. If you have an active baby, you have an active baby! I asked about this and was told that the only movement that doesn't count are hiccups!

I feel like my LO is constantly moving... I mean.NON.STOP. I'm woken up at night by sharp jabs.  I think 10 kicks in 3 minutes is totally possible if your LO is like mine!

this! 10+ kicks in less 3 minutes is pretty standard for me. Haven't had to even think about kick counts (plus my midwife's opinion is that they're a recipe for needless worry and I should only be concerned if I don't feel movement all day, even after I drink a glass of ice water, lay down, and wait one hour).

seriously how much fun is it to see your belly moving all over! blows my mind every time

The last 3 kick counts I have done have all been 10 under 1 minute!!  I have never done one that took more that 3 minutes.  I think my lil girl is going to be a handful

Oh thank goodness!  I thought my LO was super active or something since the "average" written on my kick count sheet is supposed to be 15-30 mins.... but my LO usually has 10 kicks in under 10 mins and many times in 5 mins or less!!!

I thought my LO was good at 10 kicks in 7 minutes. I guess we have some competition! :P J/K!
