Soft or hard?

noe2013 · December 2013

Are your baby bumps soft or hard? Just curious mine just started to harden this week, I'm 18w4d

MunchkinMoon · December 2013

DH read this and chuckled, as did I. He thought it was about private parts. I thought it was about ways to eat a boiled egg. I'm making one now.

And as far as your question, depends where I poke. I guess a bit harder than usual?

undercoverst · December 2013

Mostly soft. But getting harder.
Man this sounds way pervy.

Storrmys · December 2013

So I must be hungry because all I could think of was tacos ... And I like my tacos both hard and soft....
My bump is getting harder but it does depend on where and when I poke at it .

noe2013 · December 2013

Haha should have added more context

soft tacos and hard boiled eggs sound great right now... Cravings

jschwind22 · December 2013

loooooooool at the title of this post.

daisyemerson · December 2013

Mines been hard from the beginning but I have really tight ab muscles. Although sadly they hide out under their nice cushy layer of chub. I can't really even tell what's uterus and what's not

Kris2011RN · December 2013

I definitely thought this was about tacos! I like my tacos hard and soft btw!

I am fat.... so right now soft. My upper stomach is hard though.

Bootsie327 · December 2013

The bottom half of mine is hard where the actual baby is, the upper part is softer bc that's just my relocated gut. Haha

Kate070 · December 2013

I actually got that it was about bumps right away, only because I was noticing how hard mine is this morning (hehe...) and even had my husband feel it to see how hard it is (hehehe!)

alphalyrae · December 2013

I thought this was about dicks.

I kid, first thought was icecream.

my bump is hard.

Bmlopez3054 · December 2013

HAH! That title..I'm a perv. The past two days I've noticed mine was getting hard. Except where my pudge is, that still feels a little soft. It's really hard at the top of my belly though.

P&Slove · December 2013

Haha definitely did not think this was about bumps. We're a bunch of curious pervs.

Mine depends on where I feel too. I have a lot of fat so it's mostly soft but I can feel it's hard(ish) where the baby is.

lovelylauren86 · December 2013

I thought tacos then my thought was
?Por que no las dos?

stinamarie412 · December 2013

I thought it was about Carmel's. Like werthers. Soft caramels are my favorite. I would like some now.

My bump: eh. Somewhere annoyingly in the middle. Harder on the bottom.

estapleton12 · December 2013

I really want hard tacos for dinner now.

And soft caramels for dessert. And then some soft serve from the yogurt place. Ugh. And then, maybe, depending on how I feel a hard...well nevermind. I'll probably just go to sleep anyway.

My bump is hard but I'm 16 weeks so I only seem to feel it when I'm laying down for bed.

Katemr1146 · December 2013

I'm hard first thing in the morning, then softer after I pee. Then hard again by nighttime when my stomach is full. Right now I think mine has more to do with how many other things are pushing on my uterus.

spacepotatoes · December 2013

Totally thought this would be about eggs.

My bump is firm on the bottom but softer everywhere else. Occasionally, I feel a bit of pulling or tightness at the sides and then it feels harder at the sides too but that doesn't last.

CallMeMrsChaos · December 2013

yup, definitely didn't see where this one was going. I was thinking tacos. and it is only 8:43am here. But to the question at hand, my bump is hard. I was hoping it would get to a point where i could just push it and know where the baby was but alas, no such luck. I am currently 17 weeks today.

deanna1313 · December 2013

Mine has been hard the whole time. It literally feels like someone stuck a bowling ball under my shirt if you felt it. I'm 17 weeks.

julesf817 · December 2013

this is the second time this week i've been asked the question, though the first time was definitely about tacos.

mine is hard at the bottom and soft at the top. heh.

awknyc · December 2013

How hard are we talking, like a kickball? Mine is just weird. It feels softer now, but this morning when I was running at the gym it felt hard but maybe that's because of my posture...

PregMegg · December 2013

Mine depends on the day! Some days it's hard as a rock and some days it's soft!? I'm sure it has a lot to do with gas and constipation!!! Ha

busterbeagle · December 2013

Tacos: hard
Ice cream: soft
Eggs: somewhere in between
My bump: firm but still a little jiggly

Jillzy86 · December 2013

Mine is hard at the bottom where the baby is.

Meg&Austin · December 2013

Mine is hard when I stand nice and mushy when I sit it has been like that since about 17w

kristine526 · December 2013

I like hard tacos wrapped in soft tacos with a layer of melted cheese in between.

My bump is hard-ish. It just depends on where I'm poking.

Yes, yes, yes. There's a taco place on the Lower East Side of Manhattan that has all different varieties of this sort of taco situation...cheese between the layers, guac between the layers, refried beans between the layers, etc...it's the only way to go. You get your crunch on but it's not messy because everything is contained within the soft tortilla. Taco science!

yvanehtnioj · December 2013

I thought ice cream too.

Hard below belly button. Hard everywhere after a big meal.

kramja01 · December 2013

Thanks to this thread, I've now convinced DH that we need tacos for dinner. Win!

MissLadyTay · December 2013

This makes me laugh. It's still pretty soft.

This. And worse when I'm bloated, feels like it's going to explode.

firebelle26 · December 2013

It's starting to get hard. Heh. No seriously, it is.

My first thought was penises. Second thought was eggs. I didn't even think bump until I read the thread. Mine is mostly fat so soft, but sometimes I can feel a little hard bump at the bottom right of my blump.

@Bootsie327 - OMG sounds amazing! What's the name of this place??

SurprisePartySue · December 2013

First thought tacos.. Now I want tacos.....

My belly has been hard from the get go except for the small pooch I couldn't get rid of!

awisern · December 2013

Tacos - hard and soft

Ice cream - soft

Eggs - a an occasional hard boiled egg, but mostly fried with a runny center

Penis' - hard

Bump - still super squishy...baby is hiding behind my fat and at 19 weeks you would never know I'm pregnant

El Sombrero! It's on Stanton Street, right down the block from Arlene's Grocery. They also have really good margaritas and sangria. I can't wait to go back when I can indulge in the sangria again

crystalmir91385 · December 2013

I also thought of ice cream.
Mine is still soft, but it was a little soft before too. There are times where a particular spot is hard. I assume that's where baby is at that time.
