Are you 'aware' of your uterus?

MissBroody · Nov 30th, 2009, 05:33 AM

Hi girls, are you aware of your uterus? This sounds so silly! But when I'm stood I can feel a weight at the bottom of my abdomen, and it feels like someone is pulling it from each end - all stretchy. It feels heavy like I want to lift it and carry it! Does anyone else feel this?! I can feel it in the small of my lower back too..

Yeah, I feel very aware of it! Especially when I go from sitting to standing. It doesn't hurt, I'm just more aware of it like you said! Guess it's growing a lot at the moment!

I feel it most when I lie in bed at the end of the day. If I lie flat on my back, it feels like it's stretching out because I'm lying straight, where perhaps I've been sitting up for hours and it's not had to stretch.

I'm also feeling for the first time today, the feeling of it stretching when I stand up and walk. Very weird, but I assume it's normal!

yep i feel heavy towards the bottom of my abdomen and I also feel like I have a "lump" just under my ribs when I bend down to pick something up! ( Decided it must be LO!!)

I felt it especially yesterday. I thought I had just done too much... but it is sore... like maybe I had worked out (but I didn't - ha!) or that it is growing. I am wondering if it is "round ligament pain" which I ignored in the baby books because I felt great... but now I'm thinking that's what it is.
