Nelli I've had that - felt something one day and then not felt anything for a couple of days. I'll be 20 weeks on monday, and it's probably only in the last 4 days that I've reliably felt something every day, but even then it's so faint that I can imagine if the baby was facing the wrong direction I wouldn't feel a thing.

Don't sit at home worrying about it. Ring midwife and get yourself seen, it's the only way to set your mind at rest.

have a glass of ice cold water and lay down for a bit if you can. But more importantly - phone the midwife.

I think at 20 weeks they are still quite small so depending where they are place, you may not feel movements although LO probably is moving. This said I would agree with the others and call MW just to put your mind at rest

Yup - I'd say the same thing. Baby could have moved but get yourself checked. I did.

If you are at home get into a warm bath. Mine always used to squirm in the bath.

I'm almost 28 weeks and baba is more active some days than others. I freaked completely on Monday as I hadn't felt movement all day, I tried eating some sweet cereal but...nothing, until around midnight when the little blighter flinched!! I hope it's this lazy on the outside. I suppose it's always worth consulting the midwife as it's better to be safe than sorry but more often than not, with my baba, it just can't be arsed moving!!
