Experimental

Pregnant women were trained to implement fetal movement count and position tracking. The training was provided face to face and lasted 30-45 minutes. The training content included topics such as setting a comfortable environment and suitable position for the pregnant, when the fetus is active and asleep during the day, how to count and how to evaluate the movements. How to determine the position of the fetus and I. and II. Leopold maneuvers are also taught.
