As small as an unblown party balloon, until it stretches to house a growing baby, then it gets as big as a large watermelon, but gets back to its small size within 36 hours.

They say that a woman's uterus, in a normal state is as big as her clenched fist. Quite amazing to think that it grow to over 30(?) times its size when it contains a baby.

About the size of a pear. Plenty of sites on line to get sensible info: try webfetch.com or simply google go to images and type in uterus.(Not all the pictures will be helpful!)

its the size of a clenched fist and can grow and grow to fit in a baby, its fluid and a placenta and then afterwards shrink back again.
