Kicks Count

Kicks Count is a pregnancy tracking app that helps expectant parents monitor fetal movement and spot changes that may require medical attention. Developed by a UK-based charity, Kicks Count provides a simple tap-to-count interface for recording each kick, clear 7-day and 14+-day graphs to visualise trends, and one-touch call options so users can contact midwives or maternity units directly from the app. With plain-language explanations of what normal movement patterns look like, Kicks Count gives parents useful context and a straightforward way to stay engaged with fetal wellbeing throughout pregnancy.
