    What happens when I sleep flat at fourteen weeks of pregnancy and my lower abdomen bulges? It is also normal for a small belly to bulge at 14 weeks of pregnancy. Soon after I was pregnant, I found that when I lay down, my soft belly became hard and bulging, and it was no longer so flat, which was caused by the enlargement of the uterus.

    At this time, the fetus is centimeters long and weighs about 25 grams.

    The placenta is about 1 cm thick and 7 cm in diameter.

    The amniotic fluid is about 180 ml, and the uterus is like a small watermelon.

    At this time, the early reaction of many pregnant mothers has ended, and they begin to increase their appetite and gain about five or six pounds.

    At this time, the fetus also begins to move, there will be slight contractions, and the belly will also bulge.

    So, on the whole, it is reasonable for the small belly to bulge, that is, it looks a little pregnant now.

    Some mothers have bulging bellies, some mothers have bulging bellies, some mothers may be taller or have large pelvises, and the fetus develops horizontally or vertically, and the belly does not bulge.

    There are also fetuses that develop against the mother's back, and the belly is not bulging, that is, it is not pregnant.

    Everyone's situation is different, don't compare with other mothers, as long as the prenatal examination is on time, all the indicators of the fetus are normal, it is no problem, don't scare yourself.

    The development of the fetus at 14 weeks, the proportions of the head and limbs of the fetus at 14 weeks are more harmonious.

    The baby's liver begins to produce bile, the spleen begins to produce red blood cells, and the thyroid gland begins to produce thyroxine.

    The baby's fingers begin to grip with the hand, and the toes and soles of the feet begin to bend.

    The fetus begins to winkle its eyebrows and practice breathing in the amniotic fluid.

    The fetus has begun to urinate into the amniotic fluid, and the composition of the amniotic fluid has changed.

    I think this is a normal phenomenon. Because at 13 weeks of pregnancy, the abdomen is already slightly raised, and lying flat will feel stretched, so you will feel that the fetus is shrunk into a ball. If you are really unsure, you can go to the hospital for a check-up.

    It may be an illusion that the pregnant mother feels the fetus curled up. After lying flat, there was a feeling of tightness in the abdomen, as if it was twisting in the middle, and I thought that the fetus was shrinking into a ball.
