It depends on how much time you are referring to. The uterus is down behind your pubic bone for the first 12 weeks. After that it will be detectable low in your belly and should be growing up at a rate of 1 cm per week. (At 14 weeks it will be 2 cm above the pubic bone). At 20 weeks the fundus (top of the uterus) should be at your bellybutton.

Many first time moms don't really start growing "out" or "showing" until late second or early third trimester. As long as it is growing up according to schedule, it should be fine. If it is not meeting the growth pattern, your doctor or midwife should be getting regular ultra sounds to monitor the baby.

Can you feel your baby's body from the outside if you push hard on your abdomen during 4th month of pregnancy?

No you cannot as your baby is protected by a sac which is full of fluid. This protects your baby from harm during your pregnancy. However you may be able to feel a hardness in the lower part of your abdomen but this is the uterus itself. At 16 weeks your baby is no bigger than a stick of butter, also it is not wise to push hard on your abdomen when you are pregnant.
