Abstract
Background: Regular fetal activity perceived by pregnant women has long been regarded as a sign of fetal wellbeing and continues to be used by women and clinicians. Decreased fetal movement has been associated with poor pregnancy outcomes including stillbirth. Physiological studies of fetal activity have found associations between decreased fetal movement and poor perinatal outcome.
