kickTrak, the first innovative digital solution to kick counting, designed by an obstetrician for moms-to-be.
With just one click, the kickTrak kick counter will:
- At the onset of pregnancy, track your progress to stay in-sync with your doctor about your due date
- Beginning at 24 weeks, reliably track your baby's movement pattern
- Time your contractions when labor begins
The kickTrak smart kick-counter is a safe, non-invasive device, which enables moms to keep a reliable diary of their baby’s movement patterns. By using kickTrak women can count and time movements, store and recall recent kick count sessions and track the progress of their pregnancy. Significant changes empower moms to promptly alert their doctors to potential problems and reduce the risk of stillbirth.
kickTrak was developed based on more than four decades of scientific research emphasizing the kicks, jabs, rolls, twists, and turns felt by mothers are excellent indicators of their baby’s well-being. Monitoring of fetal movements is not a full time task and ACOG recommends expectant mothers to note the time it takes for their baby to complete ten movements, at approximately the same time each day when the baby is usually most active. Although each baby is different, healthy babies should have ten movements within two hours. Most babies usually do so in much less than 30 minutes.
“The goal of kick counting is not to make moms anxious but to have it be a part of their daily prenatal care,” says Dr. Nguyen. “Medical research supports the daily kick counting method as a simple, effective, harmless and reliable way to screen for fetal well-being to reduce the risk of stillbirth.”
- Easy to use
- Replaces misplaced papers
- Provides a reliable record of your baby's movements
- Keeps you in touch with your baby
- Gives you confidence in your baby's well-being
- Helps decrease the risk of stillbirth
kickTrak is small enough to fit inside a small purse, and solves the problem of searching for papers, pencils and misplaced kick count charts. The screen is bilingual, in English or Spanish, and kickTrak is built to last through multiple pregnancies. As soon as a woman knows of her pregnancy she can begin using kickTrak to track her progress. At 24 weeks to 28 weeks gestation she can begin her daily use of kickTrak to keep a reliable diary of her baby’s movements. When labor begins, kickTrak can be used to time contractions.

The American Pregnancy Association recognizes kickTrak as a safe and simple device for expectant women to track the health of their pregnancy.
"...kickTrak is a proven methodology, and when used on a regular basis as suggested, will provide increased mother, baby and physician communication, which is beneficial for everyone. I am confident that kickTrak will become standard of care."
