Feeling uterus at 12 weeks?

It seems like I saw somewhere that you should be able to feel for your uterus around 12 weeks.  I tried for a little while this morning and wasn't able to feel anything.  Any tips?  Or is it still just too soon?

Re: Feeling uterus at 12 weeks?

  • Did you try laying down?  I can only feel mine when laying in bed, early in the morning before the bloat comes on:)  I have to press down to feel it.  Its much lower than I expected too, almost near my pubic bone.  I think it depends alot on your body type too.  Don't worry!!  You will feel it soon.  I am so ready for my bump, how about you?

  • I'm ready too!  I'm tired of people saying "oh, you're showing!".  No, I assure you, it's just bloat-it'll be gone in the morning. Wink
  • Happy 12 weeks!  YAY! 

    I tried to poke around for mine this morning too, and wasn't able to find it.  I didn't try too hard, thinking I likely won't feel it yet.  Not sure how soon it is before it comes out of hiding.  Let us know if you find it!  I'm sure it won't be long. :)

  • Sometimes I think I can feel mine but then I think it could be my bladder because all of that poking around makes me have to pee... again.
  • I didn't feel mine until after 14 weeks.

  • I did yesterday and it was the weirdest thing ever. It was first thing in the morning and I was just laying there, chillen and I put my hand on my stomach and felt a bump and I thought "what is that?" I thought it was my bladder or something. It was hard and round and felt cool. The u/s tech confirmed for me that it was my uterus. Is almost up to my belly button.
