be able to feel your uterus???

Mine seems to be huge at 11 weeks and after a missed m/c ealier this year I was wondering if anyone knew if this is a good sign.

Would my uterus shrink if something happened again this time? I keep prodding and poking at it to make sure it's still there

Sweethear - At 12wks the Uterus changes from a pelvic organ to an abdominal organ.... so yes it's quite normal and is a good sign!

Coudl you be 2 or 3 wks further on?

no, i had a scan at 8 weeks which confirmed my dates exactly.

i can really feel it though - it's massive!!!

SH - That sounds totally normal. Just wait until its up at your rib cage!!

I had this with my first, but not with my 2nd until much later in the pregnancy. I was really worried, but apparently it's just coz everything is a bit 'loose' after you have had a baby!
