18 weeks pregnant with my first child when will my belly become hard?



Answer:
It probably won't until the last few months and even then it only gets hard when you get braxton hicks contractions which is your body's way of 'practicing' for labour. I got them stronger and more frequent the closer I got to my due date.
hard? i dont know that i would say mine was ever hard
Your belly will not get hard until the last 8 to 10 weeks. When your baby starts to take every last bit of room.
it varies from person to person. I am overweight, so I was soft until 7 months. Some women are hard sooner, some never are.
you are very anxious. you have a long way before that will happen. generally in the 8 and sometimes towards the very end. but mostly depends on how small or big your child is
My belly became hard at about 5 months but it was still really small
It wont. My belly didn't get hard except during labor when I would be having a contraction. And maybe sometimes during the braxton hicks contractions in the last few weeks of pregnancy.
My belly didn't get hard until I was 24 weeks. I didn't even show until I was 24 weeks and then all of the sudden I woke up and looked pregnant.
Depends on how much fat you have. No offense though. If your stomach is already big like youre 8 months pregnant, then you might never show. I showed at 6 weeks because I was really small. I immediately knew I was pregnant, and then I saw the line darkening.Same thing with hardening. It was very painful. It was like I was full all the time.
last 2 months
