    It is located At the umbilicus

    At 20 weeks' gestation, the fundus can be palpated at the umbilicus. A fundus of 12 weeks' gestation is palpated at the symphysis pubis. At 16 weeks' gestation, the fundus is midway between the symphysis pubis and umbilicus. At 36 weeks' gestation, the fundus can be palpated just below the ensiform cartilage.

    In clinical practice, a woman who is 20 weeks pregnant would expect the nurse to palpate the fundus from the top of the uterus to the superior edge of the pubic symphysis. This is done to measure the size of the uterus and assess the fetal growth and development.
