When can you start to feel your uterus?

Question

I’m 11 weeks pregnant, and I want to be able to feel/see my baby!! Of course we have the first ultrasound from 8 weeks, but I want to feel it! I’ll lay on my stomach and poke around my lower abdomen, but I can’t feel anything Ball-like. Is your uterus hard this early? Is it too deep in my belly to feel yet?

Answer

I could feel mine, just the very top edge of the ball right above my pubic bone at about 12 weeks with my first. Just a little bit of roundness I could roll the tips of my fingers over when I lay flat on my back and went straight down above the bony part. I am a nurse though, and have done a few fundal heights and post partum uterine checks in training, so I had a little bit of an idea what I was feeling for.

Answer

I didn’t feel my baby move until about 19-20 weeks.

Answer

I’m 11wks and just started feeling a small hard lump right above my pubic line. Feels like the size of an olive or something similar. Is that it??

Answer

I didn’t feel my daughter until closer to 20 weeks.

Answer

The uterus is behind the pelvic bone until at least 12 weeks. So not until after then.

Answer

15-16 weeks

Answer

I didn’t feel hardness in my belly until around week 16-18 and I didn’t feel baby move until week 20. Just be patient, you’ll get there!
