My boyfriend and I began feeling those "super kicks" around 19 and 20 weeks too. I was amazed considering everyone told me that I wouldn't feel them until weeks later because it was my first pregnancy. When I told my doctor, she was a little skeptical at first but she witnessed the baby's kicks herself (the baby kept kicking/hitting the doppler as she was trying to get a heartbeat!) But then she said that every baby and every pregnancy is different. She said that my small size may also have something to do with it. She told me to relax and enjoy it. Good luck!
