19 weeks pregnant and haven't felt baby move for over a week - any advice?

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and have been feeling baby moving (just little flutterings) for the past 4 weeks or so now. I haven't felt anything for the past week and wasn't sure if this was normal?
This is the furthest I've managed to get in pregnancy, so I'm not really sure what to expect...

You need to call your MW. She will be able to help a lot more than we could. Fingers crossed everything is fine.

The baby may have moved into a different position so you can't feel it so much. Most likely that all is well but see your MW if you are worried - a quick go with the doppler will reassure you.

My friend (who had a healthy baby girl weeks ago) had this.

Her MW told her to have a hot chocolate with an extra sugar in it and to go and lie down and play loud music... sounds very strange but it did work apparently!

Just thought I'd post it in case you wanted to give it a try. Hope all goes well for you through the rest of the pregnancy, good luck

Thanks ladies, I've just rang the midwife and she said for me to pop in this afternoon so they can listen to baby

I went to see he midwife and she let me listen to the heartbeat, so everything's fine I had some little tears of relief and I'm going to stop being so neurotic and worrying so much xxx

I was getting this a few weeks ago too.
I first felt my baby move just around 16 weeks.. even felt a kick at around 18 weeks then practically nothing for the next 2 weeks or so... now I'm 22 weeks and feel the baby move many times in the day and night now she is bigger!!

I cant wait to feel the baby kicking properly, wierdly enough whilst I was waiting to see the midwife I thought I felt some fluttering..never quite sure what to expect though xxx
