Do you have a phone number for your midwife or clinic ? you could ring and ask advice so as to put your mind at rest :-), otherwise you will just worry till tomorrow, which won`t do you any good xx

best too x if it makes you feel better my daughter used to do same when i was pregnant, she would be really active, (especially as soon as i went to bed,lol), for a couple of days then nothing for a day or two,but i would alway always advise anyone to go to the midwife rather than rely on other peoples experinces, as we know all babies and pregnancies are different :-) good luck, im sure everything will be fine, but for your sake you need to put your mind at rest xx

Hi - am sure you'll be fine, I remember that same panic when I was pregnant n what I used to do was have a few big gulps of diet coke n my son would be moving soon after. Prob not advised by midwives but it worked for me. Your baby may just be sleeping - try not to panic too much. xx

hi, I hope everything is ok now. My MW advised me to sit quietly with a glass of ice cold water pref with ice - it seemed to work!
