    My doctor's booklet says to do this if you are worried: drink a coke or other caffienated drink quickly (within 5 minutes) and lay on your left side. The baby should move a few times within an hour. If not, call the mw.

    I've tried all of the above but baby just moves when she wants to and that's that :roll: it just shows they are all so different already xx

    I was going to suggest as others have, lie down for a while and try and relax... guzzle a cold (fizzy) drink and play some music loud!
    Always got my DS kicking and seems to have the same effect on this little Beanio too.
    If after an hour or so, you have felt nothing, I'd call MW.

    Aside from the leaflet I mentioned, I'm with Huni on this. In my experience with my bubs it will move when its ready and not before!
