I think something is wrong in your power setting of your laptop. You need to check your battery power setting of your laptop. To check and edit your power setting follow this steps:
Click Start and type gpedit in the search box and select the result from the program. Click on/expand administrative templates and select the last item all settings. In the all setting details you will find “low battery notification level” and “low battery notification action”. In the top lefts panel you will see a ” edit policy” Select that and click on enable. Then you will need to set the percentage for warning. Select the percentage like 10% to set in your battery and click ok. Next move to “low battery notification action” select it and enable the action that you prefer. Restart your laptop and check the effect. If your problem is not solved you can visit to service enter.

First find out that it is a problem of a battery or something else. If the problem is occurring in battery then do not worry it is not a big problem you can sort it out easily.

I think your battery lifespan is getting over and now, its time to replace your battery. It depend on the use of your laptop, if you are using a laptop 12 or 14 hrs a day than its obvious that your battery life will get over very soon. So think accordingly, worrying unnecessarily will not solve your problem. If you are sure that you not use your laptop much than check the power setting of your laptop. If its ok then better you visit to a service center.
