I'm Currently Feeling: | Without sounding nasty......I have to kinda push my flab up and then I can feel where it's hard further down. Just wish I was slimmer cos then I'd actually have a bit of a bump by now!!  (

I'm Currently Feeling: | It took quite a while before I could feel mine too but when you get used to what it feels like you'll have no problem finding it.
Some people find it easier laying down and others standing up. I think it helps if you have your stomach relaxed and then try gently feeling down your belly with your finger tips from your belly button. You should be able to feel like a ridge or line and thats the top of your uterus. Some days it's easier than others because some days for what ever reason the uterus seems to be a bit harder and other days it's really soft. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I can feel like a weird lump thingy... it kind of feels like one of those water bed thingys. I know thats a really bad example. But like when you prob one side of it, it all moves over to the other side.
Does that make sense :s
