  I went to my midwife last week and the uterus is still below the belly button. Needless to say, it's normal what you're feeling. Give it time! I'm 14-4.

  You should try checking right above where your pubic hair starts up through your hip bone.  I'd check all around the sides and not just the middle.  If this is your first it might be more difficult to find.  I'm 15 1/2 weeks and mine is still below my hip bones and this is my second child.  If you're worried about it, I'd ask the dr/midwife to help you find it at your next appointment. 
  
  The fluffy tummy is probably a combination of bloat and organs being pushed up there to make room for your uterus to expand.

  Mine is still low and I'm 15 weeks. I can definitely feel a 'swelling' of sorts just below the belly button :-) I have extra weight around mid area and I feel the same way! Try feeling it when you're lying on your back, worked for me :-)

  Also, my midwife told me that the uterus feels like a rigid muscle, so maybe look for that?

  This is my 3rd and I already have a preggo tummy but the baby is still very low I am 15weeks. Everyone's bodies react differently...before you know it you'll be getting poked and punched from the inside
