I don't have any advice really about positions, but I can commiserate about not feeling those early movements! The first movements I felt were around 18.5 weeks, not long after lunch when I was sitting at a desk. It was really subtle-- it felt like someone was brushing up against me from the inside (which obviously it was, lol). But it didn't feel like a definite kick or anything until later. Apparently lying down not long after you eat can help you feel baby--they get a little energy burst after food--but I felt those first movements sitting, not lying down (and my heartburn is bad if I lie down after eating, so that's no fun for me!).

laying flat on my back right before bed. Particularly if I played her music. A little kanye/jay-z (anything with bass!) on my phone sitting on my stomach was almost always good for a thump or two those first few weeks.

On my back after some lemonade always got him moving. During one of my ultrasounds, they had me drink lemonade to get a clearer picture of him. He was stubborn and required coaxing to be seen.

On my back, afternoon or early evening

Lying on my back. My first movements I was lying on my bed and browsing the internet on the laptop which was on my lap, then it felt like there was a goldfish swimming in my belly.

I agree with previous posters, flat on your back is easiest to feel flutters.
