I have a small pain around my left rib cage and sometimes after or even when there is no pain i feel a flutter like a baby kicking?

Thin chest wall: It is possible that if you have a thin chest wall your heart may sometime bounce up against your chest wall like a ping pong ball. That would explain the feeling you have of a baby kicking.
