How long should you leave it before calling?

if you've been really active then bub wont move around as much (or at least you wont notice it). As the others have said, just sit and relax and have a cold drink.
I found when I was pregnant that putting something really cold on my belly often caused some movement. You could try that too.

I used to eat ice, but honestly if it was me and i was worried i would call them and see what they say, tell them how many times you have felt bubs move, if they are worried they will tell you to come in, if not they will tell you to wait however long and see how it goes. I would call them its not going to hurt.

I ate jelly babies or another sugary sweet to get my girls going and It worked for me everytime. Im sure bubs is having a rest and will be back kicking the daylights out of you in no time

Thanks for all your suggestions ladies . It's such comfort knowing I have all the lovely BB girls for support!

I had a bit of a lie down, and after a little while bubs started up a bit. He's given me a couple of decent movements now, so I'm feeling much, much better! He's still not being as active as he normally would, but I guess he's just having a quiet day.

I am very glad to hear that, take care

If it happens again you can also try eating chocolate or having a coffee. Both of these made my bub wake up & move.

Thats great, glad to hear that he is listening to you. I know I say to bump sometimes. Come on bump be a good boy and give your mummy a big kick and usually he will within a few minutes. I have noticed that he is pretty quiet in the mornings all the way through till afternoon and then starts up till I go to bed. Like now he is running a muck in there but only started up about a couple of hours ago. I hope he is not growing much more cause I seriously will split if he gets any bigger!
