The method is based on noting the quality of perceived movements, which develops maternal awareness of the health of the foetus. The method requires the mother to lie on her left side while her baby is awake and for 15 minutes focus on exactly how the baby moves, taking into account the strength, type and frequency of movement. However, the number of fetal movements is not counted during this time.

It is also very important to understand the attitudes of the pregnant women, because a positive attitude may improve the perception of the pregnant woman and thus increase compliance with the method, whereas a negative attitude may hinder compliance with the method. Therefore, it will be important to create a positive attitude during the counselling of pregnant women in this group.

This method involves counting the movements over a set period of time (usually 30 minutes to 2 hours). The mother should count the fetal movements at the same time every day. In this counting technique, mothers are especially asked to count after 3 meals during the day. Fetal movements are usually active in the evening. During the counting process, the mother should make sure that the baby is awake and should be calm, resting, eating, using the toilet, lying on her side and placing her hands on her abdomen. When the mother perceives the first movement of the baby, she should start recording on the monitoring chart given to her and continue counting and recording until the 10th movement is completed. If she counts less than 10 movements in the first 30 minutes, she should continue recording.

They will be instructed to lie on their left side and focus on the fetal movements for 15 minutes every day while the foetus is awake. They will also be instructed to monitor the character, strength and frequency of fetal movements (not to count them) and to seek medical advice if they feel any change in this pattern.

After two weeks, the pregnant women will be invited back to the organisation for a follow-up interview to check whether they have performed the practice and recorded correctly. An interview will be conducted again after four weeks.

Prenatal Maternal Attachment Scale: Each item of the scale, which has a total of 19 items, focuses on the feelings, attitudes and behaviors of the pregnant woman towards the fetus. The scale is Likert-type and each item is scored between 1-5. Before the total score is calculated, 11 items in the scale are scored in the reverse direction. The total score for the scale is obtained by adding the scores given to all items. A high score indicates a high degree of attachment.

Perceived Stress Scale-10: The ASÖ-10 is a two-factor, with each item being rated on a 5-point Likert-type scale with response options ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (very often). The responses are reversed and the scores of the four positive items are summed over the 10 items to obtain a total score. This score ranges from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating higher perceived stress.

State-Trait Anxiety Inventory: It consists of a total of forty items, including a State Anxiety Scale consisting of twenty items and a Trait Anxiety Scale consisting of twenty items. There are two types of expressions in the scales: direct and reversed. The total score obtained from each scale is between a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 80. A high score indicates a high level of anxiety, while a low score indicates a low level of anxiety.

Risk Perception in Pregnancy Scale: It consists of nine items and 2 factors. There is a 0-100 mm linear line immediately below each item on the scale, indicating "no risk" and "extremely high risk". The total score of the scale is found by adding the scores for each of the nine items and dividing the resulting score by 9. The scale has no cut-off point. As the score obtained from the scale increases, it is accepted that the perception of risk related to the pregnant woman and her baby increases.
