I was the same for quite a while there too, probably until mid to late 2nd tri - just getting kicks in pretty much the same spot for what felt like ages. But now they're all over the place, so it's maybe just a case of waiting till bubs gets a bit bigger & stronger. And LOL at you poking bubs - that's exactly what I do with mine, just to get the kicking response back & to let them know that I know they're there - it's a fun game to play.
For a while there i too felt kicks in just one spot. My placenta is on the left hand side.
Now the little blighter likes to move around a lot, I call him shifty baby. Yet he's running out of room now so I'm not sure what his caper is.
I do think that if you favour certain positions, espcially in bed, then bubs will find a position that they find most comfortable as well. I know when I lay on my right side, because I favor the left for sleeping, the movement really kickis into action.
