    @krashke Thanks for that graphic. I assume the circles are the uterus? I've never seen that before and it is immensely helpful!

    @krashke @LaceyBee522 FYI, there are a ton of those graphics, and they're all vaguely different, which is annoying. Also duh the length of your torso varies so blargh. So I'm 14 weeks (really more like 15 weeks based on how baby is measuring), and I can feel my uterus - it's like, really more like where the 12 is in that image. But I have a long torso, so that's probably part of it.

    I sort of thing these side view versions are more helpful for me to visualize.... but I'm not sure they're any more precise based on my body type, etc.

    @doxiemoxie212 how can you feel your uterus? Genuinely asking because I want to see if I can feel mine.

    @izza2 I’ve never seen these movies, so I have no idea what you are talking about.

    @doxiemoxie212 I second @krashke's question. I thought I could feel my ute a couple of nights ago, but I think it was just constipation......

    @krashke ~ Just poke your belly. Start low and it will be hard as a rock. And as you go up, it will eventually get squishy. Once you reach squish, you are above the top of your uterus. I can feel it better when I’m standing up

    @krashke I couldn't feel mine until a few days ago (and I'm measuring more like 15+1 so factor that into your ute search, lol), but basically if I finger walk, pressing fairly firmly but not painfully, from my belly button down, it feels distinctly different once I get to my uterus, and I can sort of trace around that edge in a semi circle, ish. If that makes sense. I have to lay on my back, and I have to try to relax my stomach muscles to be able to do it.

    Well, at least all the graphics show the rectum in the same place, whew. 

    But really, enjoy not showing. 3rd baby here and I'm definitely showing. I'm already getting asked if it's twins (spoiler alert, it's not!).

    @doxiemoxie212 no luck. When I'm standing up it all just feels hard like my abs but when I laid down it was all squishy. ::shrug:: 

    Then MH scolded me saying I was poking the baby. I think it might still be too low at only 12+3.

    @krashke yeah I couldn't feel mine at that point. But I made DH poke my tummy a lot so that when I thought I could feel it, I could have him check too lol. He actually can feel a difference now, so it helps me know I'm not crazy. (My apps tell me it's fine to poke baby a little, and that although I can't feel it, baby pokes back  :D:D no idea if that's true.)

    @sabby2 My son was one of those baby's. I had several appointments where the nurse would give up and just say "I heard the heartbeat and it sounds fine. I'm not sure exactly what it was because he's kicking it off before I can finish counting." My son would kick it hard enough that the doppler would come off my stomach a bit. He really hated that thing.

    @NamelessAria toward the end, when they’d have me go to L&D to be monitored, they’d strap that heartbeat monitor to my belly and DS would just go to war with it. He’d kick it and move away from it, they’d come back and move it to find him and he’d fight it and move away from it some more. He hated that thing.

    I'm 14+4 with baby number two and I have quite the little bump going right now. DH pressed on my lower abdomen last night and said, "Here's your uterus, the rest of this is...(long pause as he considered his mortality) other stuff that got pushed up."

    But then again, I'm still waiting to find out if I've had undiagnosed type 2 diabetes so this kid could already be sumo wrestler sized.
