i feel different in the mornings than at night

KariNeilson

when I wake up in the morning...early since I'm not getting good sleep...the first thing I want to do is feel my belly. It's like an instinct almost. I've noticed in the past couple of days that in the morning my belly sticks out a little bit and is hard, but at night, like right now, it feels soft and sunken in. I wonder if it is just because my bladder is full in the morning. Any input?

I think it might be a combo of bladder/bowel stuff. I seem to be having the same thing on the opposite schedule. Usually in the morning it's soft and then later it's hard. But this morning is different again too, maybe it's the baby's position. If any others have ideas I would also like to hear them!

Ditto this. My belly seems smaller and softer in the AM. Some days, by the time I go to bed I feel like I look 6 months along!

That is totally me.  I can find my uterus without a problem in the morning.  I can feel it like a hard melon in my stomach, but by night it has disappeared.  I am guessing its cause when I sleep I am on my side leaning forward, so my uterus moves forward.  I don't know though.
