520 _aStillbirth affects 1 in 175 pregnancies in the United States. There are significant racial and ethnic disparities in rates of stillbirth. Rates of stillbirth are highest among non-Hispanic Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander and non-Hispanic Black women, more than twice the rate of non-Hispanic White women. Stillbirth is a public health crisis that warrants attention as it has significant physical, psychosocial, and economic effects on women and their family. Many stillbirths occur due to placental insufficiency, causing a lack of oxygenation of the fetus, which can result in decreased movement. Pregnant patients who experience stillbirth often observe decreased fetal movement days before birth. Daily fetal movement monitoring has the potential to identify pregnancies at risk so providers can intervene. Count the Kicks is a fetal movement monitoring program that provides standardized education and resources for expectant parents. Increased awareness of providers and childbearing families about the importance of fetal movement monitoring, standardized provision of education on fetal movement counting, and what to do if a baby's normal movement patterns change can be helpful in promoting healthy pregnancy outcomes.
