Is it possible that my baby is kicking my kidney? I had a kidney infection on my left side a couple months ago and another on my right side a month ago so I'm pretty well aware of where my kidneys are and I swear once a week I'll get a very sharp fast pain where my kidney is and it goes away just as fast as it comes. I've heard from other people that it is possible that the baby kicks the kidneys but I wanted to make sure that's probably what it is before going and seeing a doctor
