Summary

The purpose of the study is to find out the best way to help pregnant women keep track of their baby's movements. During pregnancy, feeling your baby's movements is normal. A decrease in movement can indicate potential problems with your baby's well-being. This study will see if daily electronic reminders and kick count charts help women to better track their baby's movements over the last weeks of pregnancy.
