I haven't felt my baby kick today, should I be worried?


If you are concentrating on something else, you may not have noticed your baby's movements. If you want some reassurance, here are some ways to encourage your baby to move:

• Lie down on your side (with support under your bump) and stay still

• Put your feet up and relax.
Play music to your stomach.

Not so long ago, women were advised to monitor their baby's movement with a fetal kick chart, where you kept a record of the times of the movements until you had noted ten kicks, hopefully by roughly the same time each day. But these charts are used less now as they were easy to forget about and the kick patterns didn't always match up, which caused unnecessary concern among women.
