The best time to feel is when you're laying down.  Also YouTube baby kicks at whatever weeks you are to get a good idea what you're looking for.

Lay down on your back really still and press down on your stomach where ypu think your baby is and wait until you feel a movement that worked for me or lay on your stomach really still and see if you feel anything. My baby always moves if im on my stomach i guess she dosent like it

Just be patient if you are a FTM it might take a week.or 2 longer for you to feel your baby. I didnt feel mine move until 20 weeks (and now.he wont stop lol) just give him a little more time
