Rib Kicking At 24 Weeks

Is it possible I am farther along than once thought?
I am 24 weeks with my second child. With my first I didn't feel anything like this until my 3rd trimester. He's kickin so hard now that I can barely stand it and my lower and mid back pain is alot worse with this one. I had my first at 35 weeks and she was still a healthy 7-15 and 21 inches long. Am I just imagining.. or could I be farther along than just 24 weeks?

I have a very active baby girl who seems to move 24/7.

Midwife comments on it everytime i see her. :)

My kicks are very very prominent (you can see them) and range from really low down to up near my ribs. Think it depends where shes lying.

I too think i may be a little further along but will just have to wait and see i guess.

My doctor is still going by the last period, but the woman who done my u/s when I was 18 weeks said I was measuring 20 weeks... I don't know what to think. For some reason both pregnancies have been weird! lol-This lil boy is kicking me so hard right now I feel like I am going to pass out! He's either really big or a super-strong youngin!

wowo 7 lbs 15 oz at 35 weeks?? Maybe you just have big babies? I am 23.4 weeks with my 3rd and my little guy favors the cradle position..........so I get kicked and puched on both sides of my stomach at once. So far nothing up high but thats just cause of his position:) Are you 24 weeks based on your LMP? or u/s?
