You may have already tried, but tips I've heard are to drink something tart (OJ or iced tea?) and lie on your side.  

If you don't feel 10 movements over the course of 2 hours, called your doctor.

I'm not medically trained, these are just tips/rules I've been told.  The baby's movements can be less pronounced late in pregnancy since there is less free space in the uterus, but you should still detect something.  Good luck!
