baby not moving...

I'm 19 weeks with my second child. I have been feeling the baby move since 13 weeks and my husband and son have been able to feel since 17 weeks. I am concerned because the baby didn't move a lot yesterday and now today I haven't felt a thing... I even laid down to rest and tried to poke around to.see if I could get some movement but nothing. What should I do?

All these women are right at this time the baby is still small and you won't feel everything. Plus it could be a lazy day. If your little one is anything like mine once you start really worrying you'll get that reassuring kick :)

You're not going to feel alot of movement all the timebbecause babies bones are still soft. You usually don't feel consistent movement until between 26 and 28 wks.

If still nothing you can always go get checked at the er. Its still kinda early and baby might just be lazy for a few days but it never hurts to make sure all is well but it will make you feel better knowing. Hope all is well and good luck.
