you shouldnt be concerned at all. Its normal not to feel any movement until 21 weeks or so. Try laying down on your back very still and you may be surprised.. And thats not a bad question at all!!
Its actually really common for girls to be worried about this

hey, don't worry. trust me. joleigh doesn't move that much at all either. in fact, i barely feel her when she does. it's normal. i looked it up in a couple of books, and then researched it further online.

most people don't feel baby moves until around week 20 or so. also, the baby moves the most between weeks 24 and 28. [from book "what to expect when expecting"].

calm down, girl. i get worried about it, too. but i'm not going to freak out because all my doc's appt's have gone great! as long as they don't give you a reason to worry, relax. you baby is perfectly fine!

HI! Just to make you feel better, I didn't feel much movement (if at all) until about the beginning of 21 weeks or so. Now the baby won't stop having a party inside my belly! Baby moves the most for me when I lay on my back, and at night when I am trying to go to sleep!
Just wait a bit longer....you'll be feeling him/her in no time! Wink
