Normal fetal movement count per day

Abnormal forceful, jerky, and periodic fetal movement can be associated with a fetal seizure . The seizures occur repeatedly, usually involving the whole fetal body, and at a frequency that varies from two movements/second in clonic convulsions to several times/minute in lightening convulsions (2, 3).

There’s no set number of movements you should feel each day – every baby is different. You do not need to count the number of kicks or movements you feel each day.
