Was my baby kicking?

Last night I felt popping/ muscle twinge-type feelings along the left side of my tummy. When I googled it, I thought 'yes, she's kicking'. But the more I read, the more I thought I was imagining the feeling.
She was constantly kicking for around 1-2 mins, stopped, then started again. I was just expecting to feel the odd kick every now and again, so I think that's why I'm thinking it's in my head. Can babies kick for that long, or it is just the is kick?
I'm 18+1 if that's any help.
Thanks :)

Babies moving around generally lasts for a while, until they settle. May well be the baby moving and spinning around.

Yes, my kicks last for some time sometimes! Place your hand there, you will feel the vibration :)

Congrats -it's a great feeling!

Yes or it could be hiccoughs - they do that too! :)
