During pregnancy, the uterus expands significantly from its normal size of about the size of a pear to accommodate the growing fetus. By the end of pregnancy, the uterus can weigh around 2 to 2.5 pounds (900 to 1,100 grams) and can stretch to a capacity of about 5 liters. This growth is essential to support the developing baby and other necessary structures, such as the placenta and amniotic fluid.
Much of the content of the uterus during pregnancy is water-like amniotic fluid, in which the fetus floats.
Yes, during pregnancy the uterus pushes against the bladder. thus the bladder can't hold as much urine and has to be relieve a lot more often.
During the first and second week the uterus is still very soft. With first pregnancies the uterus can not usually touchable hard until probably the third or fourth month of pregnacy. Much earlier you may be very bloated (due to hormones) which could easliy be mistaken fr the uterus
Not necessarily. Each pregnancy can be different. Cramping during pregnancy, unfortunately, can mean multiple things; some are okay and some are not so good. It can be gas, constipation, your uterus growing; signs of an ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, and the list can go on and on. If the cramping continues and it concerns you too much you should contact your doctor.
The average length of a pregnancy is 39 weeks.

I couldn't tell but if there is for you, you should go see a doctor.
Absolutely. In the beginning of the pregnancy your uterus and your muscles all stretch and the muscles continue to stretch as your belly gets bigger so there can be cramping. Thankfully though it usually only lasts a few weeks and then it pretty much subsides.
You have a tumor or you ate too much. Maybe both.
My OB/GYN told me that when a woman gets pregnant, the ovary that she ovulated from that month was going to be much bigger than the other one.
yes, breast changes significantly! They become bigger, firmer and the circles around nipples become much darker. At the end of pregnancy they sometimes start leaking colostrum.
