Can't feel my uterus...

I am having trouble finding my uterus...I am on the chubby side so it may just be hidden by my fat rolls...but I think I am feeling in the right places. Anyone else having this problem?

We have been able to find the heartbeat very well...so it seems weird that I can feel my uterus...maybe I just don't know what to feel for??

    One tip my doc gave me that helped me feel it right away - instead of using the tips of your fingers to find it, lay one finger flat and press on it with another finger, and roll it toward the center of your tummy.  When you hit the edge of your uterus it'll be easier to feel.

    Might be easier if you are laying down.  I start at the pubic bone and slide my fingers up until I hit the top of the uterus.  The uterus is pretty hard and once you hit the top its almost like a ridge that drops off into flab city.
