Can I feel my uterus stretching if I've gained no weight?

Question

My uterus has a constant tightening for the past 2 days almost and I'm 26 weeks and 3 days. I haven't gained any weight so I'm all baby. Please give me some advice or your opinion. Thanks!

Answer

Just because you aren't gaining doesn't mean baby isn't growing. I lost weight from morning sickness up until 24 weeks and then never gained it back or ever really had a big pregnancy bump before giving birth to a 6 pound 1 ounce baby at 36 weeks who was perfectly healthy and got to come home the next day when we were both discharged together.

Answer

Yes. I have the same feeling. I'm 21 weeks and haven't gained weight.
