Does your uterus 'feel different' during early pregnancy?

I ask this question because I "feel" like I am pregnant.  My husband and I are TTC and I have some symptoms of pregnancy such as sore breasts, feeling really tired, a little nausea, etc.  I know these symptoms are also similar to an impending period.  It is too early for me to take a HPT, my period is not due until Oct. 4th or so.  I also have a habit of "tricking" myself into believing I am pregnant based on symptoms, only to be slightly disappointed when I get my period.  However one symptom is different from what I usually have before a period.  I have slight cramping, which is normal for me before a period, but my uterus also feels like "there's something in there."  I can't really describe the feeling, other than it feels "full" I guess.  Sorry for the lack of description.  Anyway, did anyone "feel anything" in the pelvic area when they were in early pregnancy?  Any info would be helpful.  Thanks!

Hi, MommyOf2_2012!  I have never been pregnant, and just like a lot of other ladies on here, I am wanting a baby so badly that sometimes I "feel" pregnant, but never am...Anyway, I am feeling the same way.  My stomach is sensitive to touch also.  I feel like my uterus is heavy most of the time.  I can't lay on my side without propping myself up.  My breasts have been tender, but no change in size.  My period isn't for another 2 weeks.  I'm rather confused just as you are!  You have had babies before, right?  You didn't feel this way with the others?  I just don't know what to do...
