Popgadget is always up on the latest tech trends for women. Today they called kickTrak a "must-have" baby gadget and explored the importance of kick counting for pregnancy health:
"Dr. Nguyen, who invented the kickTrak, tells us why she invented the product:
'Fetal movement is one of the most important indicators of a baby's health. Studies show that decreased fetal movement can indicate risk for stillbirth. Most babies take less than 15 minutes to make ten movements - jabs, rolls, kicks, twists and turns. Moms should inform their providers if their babies are taking longer than usual or are taking more than 2 hours to complete ten movements. Before kickTrak, moms were advised to keep track of their baby's movements by filling out charts. Several of my patients suggested that there should be an easier way to comply with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' recommendation to track babies health. While moms can still take proactive steps to prevent stillbirth by tracking their sessions with a pen and paper, kickTrak serves as a physical reminder to count kicks once a day. It stores the data from the ten most recent kick counting sessions, so moms can share the vital information with their health care providers. Also, kickTrak allows moms to easily track their pregnancy's progress and counts down to their due date.' "Read more about why Popgadget thinks kickTrak is a must-have baby gadget.
