Especially if you're a small woman or if you have a short torso, it's completely possible that the baby's just running out of room.  Babies at that age of gestation also have waking and sleeping patterns, so it could be that the baby's up when you're sleeping and out like a light during the day.  If you're uncomfortable waiting until Friday, try calling your doctor's office and ask to speak with a nurse about it.  Good luck, and I'm sure everything is fine.
