How does your abdomen feel?

Morenajuliet

So as we're heading through tri. 1 I am curious as to how everyone's abdomen's feel. I feel like most of the time mine is relatively achy like I can feel it being stretched or rearranged. When I go to sit up I'm more sensitive than normal in that area.I know we're not to the stage to feel any kicking but I'm feeling some rearranging in there for sure. What are you ladies noticing?

I am on the heavier side so I can only feel cramps

I notice pains and cramps. Like when I cough it really hurts. And if I sit up too quick I get some pains. But I too feel twinges like things are moving around. Not baby, but must be my body adjusting.

I have had this strange stretching/aching feeling in my abdominal wall for about 2 weeks--- like I've been working out, which I haven't done in a long, long time.

and I feel like I can't flex my abs.

Basically all of this. If I move too quickly, turn or stretch, I feel a pulling sensation in my abdomen. And coughing sucks now.

All of this. Sitting up quickly leaves me with what feels like muscle cramps.

My abdomen felt really heavy with my last pregnancy.  This time, it feels less heavy...  Sometimes I swear I already feel fluttering but it is totally probably gas.

no stretching feeling yet... Probably because it is easily stretching since I was pregnant a little over a year ago.

yeah all of this - stretching and pulling sensations, then some more painful tugs and cramps. Also it hurts like a mother trucker when I sneeze, especially if I am sitting or lying down - so I try to stand as soon as I feel a sneeze coming on lol. 

I felt some fluttering yesterday in the "right place" but I am going to assume that is body rearranging or gas lol. I got a bit excited though for feeling that later!

Things are definitely shifting around. I feel tugging at times, a couple times I've gone to stand or sit up and I had a sharp pain shoot up the side of my lower stomach so now I try to take my time with those movements. Sometimes it feels like my ribs are trying to break out of my body.

I'm 11 weeks and am feeling all of this too, especially when i move fast while laying down.

I'm 10 weeks and I feel nothing.  This is pregnancy #4 so maybe I'm already stretched out but there is definitely not any cramping or tugging.  I will say that I sneezed while lying in bed this morning and it HURT.  That's it, however.

Yeah!!! Sneezing while lying down is the WORST!

I feel like someone is pumping a balloon full of air in my lower abdomen. I just feel lots of achy pressure. I hope it's growing and stretching.

Right under my breasts in my upper abdomen is what bothers me most!!

Mine feels harder than I expected it too when I push on it, it's less squishy lol ... and my belly button is starting to look different, more taught! It feels like I'm constantly wearing a fanny pack with a hockey puck in it.
