You could try to drink something cold or sweet and lay down and concentrate on trying to feel baby.  I am 18 weeks with number 2 and when busy i dont notice the movements and sometimes need to take a break to reassure myself!

I would think so. But if you are concerned, call the doctor and ask them what they think

Is this your first? It's not normal for a baby to not move for that long but, if it's your first or if you're busy and active you could just be missing it. Or baby could be moving more when you're sleeping.
With my first I didn't notice a lot of movement until closer to the third trimester. And even now, if I get real busy I don't always notice the movements.
