where are your abs as your bump grows?

If I run my hand over my belly, I can feel two smaller lumps, one on each side, above my bump and my belly button. They feel kind of like muscles. Are those my abs after being pushed upward by my bump? Just curious if anyone else has something similar

Your abs stay in their original position but get pushed to each side, kinda split in the middle. If I lie on my back and try and do a sit up, my tummy is all pointy in the middle cos the abs are only on the sides, it looks realy weird! Not sure what the lump you have is...

My ab muscles are at the side of my stomach. I have a band going down the middle where the abs used to be but it now just soft! At the very top of my stomach, under my boobs the muscles are still in the same position x

Thanks guys, seems like it is probably just the same muscles as always since they are too high to have been pushed to the side. I'm probably just more aware of the shape of my belly now
