I'm almost 11wks and I've read your uterus comes up above your pubic bone then and you should be able to feel it.....should I? And when should I get that line on my stomach? Some sites say it should start appearing now? This is my first!!!!! And are the chances of miscarriage lower now at 11wks? Thanks

Don't feel around for the top of your uterus, you could cause a miscarriage. That is what happened to me at 12 weeks. In some foreign countries they do abortions by putting pressure on the abdomen. The brown line didnt happen to me until right before I had the baby.

Your chance of miscarrage deminishes after 6 weeks. Once the heartbeat has been established the chances are extrememly low. You won't know if there is a hearbeat though, unless you've had an ulstrasound. Many women miscarry up to 12 weeks, but the fetus actually dies before 6 weeks. You won't feel the top of your uterus for awhile yet. I was around 15 weeks before I could feel it, and it took my midwife to show me what to feel for. No worries, I'm sure everything is fine. I didn't develope the line on my tummy until the 8th month. Some women never get it. God Bless

I never got that line on my stomach. I believe the chance of miscarriage lowers at the beginning of the second trimester which I think is at 13 weeks. As for feeling the uterus...I didn't know you'd be able to do that, so I never tried. Congratulations!
