How do you distinguish the end of one fetal movement and the beginning of another?

niknac asked:

I have been giving a sheet to monitor fetal movement but I’m never sure if when she is moving if she is done moving. How can I be absolute sure that I’m not counting one movement as more than one.
I’m 37 weeks

    The doctors office for about 30 minutes had to press button everytime he moved just pressed it every single time felt anything at all any bump kick anything at.

    IO know what you are saying I have to do the same thing. It is not easy as I have ahard time distinguishing between baby movements hiccups and braxton hicks just make sure you drink a cup or so of fruit punch or something tangy like that and then lay down within a half hour your baby should be kicking lots. good luck and don’t worry I am sure your baby is fine how far are you anyway it makes a big difference. I am 38 weeks I wish you luck

    My doctor told me to write down any time felt bump so like if you feel another count it as movements had to write down any time felt bump so like if you imagine how much had to write down any time felt bump and then.
