My baby is extremely active. I mean very very busy. At my docs they call him " the gymnast"  It's very exhausting. My fist baby,  didn't move much at all. She was a very relaxed calm easy baby. I'm worried my baby will be just as busy after birth. I gotta get more prepared.  :/

At that point your baby is still pretty small, so you may not feel him or her all the time.

Don't worry I'm the exact same. My placenta is at the front and I tend to feel her most when lying down. I'm not overweight at all, everyone is different. I got told I would only really feel kicks in a couple of weeks, I'm currently 22 weeks and once baby gets bigger and stronger. If your worried speak with your midwife to out your mind art ease x

There is a chance your placenta is in the front which will act like a pillow blocking you from feeling a lot of movement. I wouldn't sweat it too much. May be worth asking at your next appointment where the placenta is.

As long as you are feeling it move I'm sure your fine,  my Dr told me that the bigger you are when you get pregnant the longer it will take to feel it,  i had asked him when it was normal to feel and when it gets where it hurts when they move.
