Im 8 months pregnant and the doctor says that I should feel her moving alot everyday. But some days she just doesnt move at all. I dont know if I should be worried about it. I think it might having something to do with her being small for 8 months. but I really dont know, this is my first pregnancy.

If you're busy and running around it's easy to miss feeling your baby kick.
The best thing to do is to just set aside some time each day and do nothing but feel for the baby's movements. This is called taking a kick count.Quote: There are numerous ways to count your baby’s movements and numerous opinions on how many movements you are looking for within a certain amount of time. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that you time how long it takes you to feel 10 kicks, flutters, swishes, or rolls. Ideally, you want to feel at least 10 movements within 2 hours. You will likely feel 10 movements in much less time.

Like Jenannen said, take a kick count every so often. It's what I do to keep tabs on my Tegan when I think he might not be feeling well.
Also, keep in mind that a lot of babies are lulled to sleep by rocking; if you're doing a lot of moving around yourself, she may just be relaxed by the movement.
