kick count question

[sake]

Labor and delivery told me to do kick counts to make sure the baby is moving enough. They said 10 movements in 2 hours. If he moves A LOT all at once, does that count as like 7 kicks or something? or is that just one?

I always counted them as multiple kicks, but who knows if that was correct. Hopefully others chime in. How are you feeling?

I'm feeling pretty good. My SIL let me borrow her fetal doppler so I could listen to his heartbeat whenever i wanted so I wouldn't stress about it during the holidays. I listened this morning, and it sounded normal. I've been paying more attention to how much he's moving. Just want to make sure everything stays ok, since I've made it this far.

That's great that she let you borrow the doppler. I hope you continue to feel good and the little guy continues to hang out and be a good boy in there.

I'm not concerned, just wondering for clarification purposes. He's moving around a lot b/c of the extra spicy chili I had for dinner!
I'm excited and nervous. Excited to not be pregnant anymore, and finally get to meet him, nervous for labor, and pain. i HATE PAIN.
