Strong kicks near ribs!?

Question

I am 16 weeks today and for two days I have felt strong kicks up near my ribs. Am I tripping? 
I have not felt any other movement/flutters. But now all of a sudden...you can even see the kicks if I watch my belly. And hubby & daughter can feel. I thought my uterus was only near the top of my belly button at this point, but it is my second baby so maybe it has expanded faster 🤣🤷‍♀️
Could these actually be kicks!!??

Answer

No, not according to any information I’ve found, even with a second pregnancy! Unless there is something medically different about your body/this pregnancy. Baby will be up there soon enough 😊

Answer

THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME! & I know it’s not gas because I’m pregnant with triplets and I k is my babies aren’t low right now at all. Well at least not all of them are low. Im trying to figure out how or if I can get whichever baby this is to freaking get out of my ribs ☹️☹️

Answer

Baby is still so low so it's probably not baby hun if your baby kicked you near ribs then I'd go find superman to tell him he's gonna have a sidekick soon 😂

Answer

Pregnant with my 3rd and 15 weeks. I can just now feel tiny movement down low under my belly button. I have a fetal Doppler so I know exactly where babe is and they’re about 2 inches below my belly bottom. With baby only being about 3inches at this stage, it’s very unlikely that you would feel it up there. Even if this is your second pregnancy.

Answer

Probably gas. Baby is still down low so you won’t feel rib kicks until later in your second trimester

Answer

I doubt it. Before I was even pregnant this time, I would get what felt like kicks and my stomach actually would move. Like I thought I was losing it haha No idea what it was but so strange. Any movements I’ve felt have been really low in my stomach. About half way between my pelvic bone and belly button.
