When did you notice your tummy getting harder?

[ThorsMistress]

Hi all.

When did everyone notice their tummy getting harder?

I’m 11+5 with DC2 and I thought with this being my 2nd that I would feel my tummy getting hard but this isn’t the case. I am slightly overweight so could this be a factor?

I'm 12+1 and size 10-12 and not noticed belly getting hard yet xx

You won't be able to feel the uterus, which is the hard part, until it's risen above your pelvis which doesn't happen until after 12 weeks.

For me, it wasn't till much later, something like 20 weeks plus and even then it was only firmer, not solid like it is now at full term.

I only really notice mine getting solid like 25 weeks +, it mightve even been later than that x

I’m 23 weeks and it’s just started to get harder and more obvious. I still look more fat than pregnant but it’s growing fast! It seems to have doubled in the last three weeks. Got a real shock when I looked in the mirror the other day.

I am 10 + 3 can definitely feel my tummy hard and have been able to for a couple of weeks. This is my second! I'm petrified of twins

I've just noticed mine is harder, I'm 21 weeks and second pregnancy

I'm 30 weeks mine isn't even that hard yet
