To feel the kick easier, lie on your side and place your hand on your tummy. Sometimes, I think I feel the baby's foot or hand touching my tummy wall.

Another trick you can try; ask your husband to put his ear to your tummy. Baby might kick hubby in his face.

Yes, I count in mild kicks too. But I count double kick or triple kick (continuous) as one kick only.
Please share how long it needs for you to get 10 kicks. Mine usually kicks 20 less than half an hour. Doctor says my baby is veryyyy active. I wonder if he gets enough sleep.

No nausea, but stomach does get gassy when baby kicks. Maybe it's the direction where your baby kicks.

I just go back from dr appt and i must correct the info i typed earlier. Dr says averagely one kick in one hour or 10 kicks in 12 hours is ok. The 10 kicks in 2 hours is the infor i got from babycenter website.
Got a false alarm today when baby not kicking at all since 5 am this morning (his usual active time). Appt at 8.30 and still not a single movement during ultrasound but got heartbeat. I was sent to do ctg to monitor any smallest movement and was very worried. Luckily, they detected movement and everything is normal. Phewww... nightmares of all preggies - not feeling their kicks.

Weird.. I am already feeling the kick earlier than that. In fact doctor asked if I can feel the kick during my appt at week 23. Gas is very different from kick, you will know it. I think your doctor meant 'hard big kick' at week 25? With the hard kick, you will see your tummy move. Are you having a male gynae?

Your baby is tall? That's great! Mine will probably be like hubby - small size at birth. BTW, my bb got hair already!

Don't worry. You can buy folic acid from any pharmacy. RM5 for a whole packet (100 pills, I think). I stopped folic acid after first trimester and started on multivitamin and calcium.

I am on Week 31 today. Baby is still in breech position, hopefully will turn in a few weeks soon.

Won't be getting CL or going for confinement centers. Many factors because EDD is too near CNY, all CL wants to charge more expensive (yet they want to take long leave for CNY). Also, I am a bit OCD and germaphobic. Hubby is taking a month leave and stay home to help. At least he will know what I want and not want. I am not very pantang about confinement anyway. Cleaning will be done by part time maid.

Get a part time maid to clean up once a week, most CL won't do house cleaning.
