 Hi I'm a student midwife. First of all I would call your midwife. Her number should be in your pregnancy pack.
If you are in any pain in your abdominal area then go to your local walk in centre, or ask to see your midwife. You can also ask for a reassurance scan if you are really worried. If you see your midwife she will allow you to listen to your baby's heart beat.
In mot cases, your baby is probably having a lazy few days or has settled backwards which means instea of being near your front the baby is close to the spine and there is generally less feeling then. Im sure everything is fine, many pregnant women go through this panic.
Email me on here if you have any more concerns

Or it could be something serious. But before getting yourself worked up, do seek medical advice. I'm 7 months gone and my baby will kick up a fuss for weeks then go quite for a few days ... personally i think he has tired himself out so needs quiet time inbetween activity. :)
