It doesn't sound like fluid to me, because what you describe seems to be the skin+the fat underneath the skin (not too much fat since you're size 14) that you can move around easily and play with. Otherwise, if it was water in your abdominal area (ascites), you wouldn't be able to make your stomach flat, it would always stick out, but that's just my opinion.

If you don't mean ascites but general water retention, then your whole body would be puffier, for example when I was at the end of my pregnancy and it was hot summer, the excess water made my fingers and toes swell stupidly big, it would have been hard to mistake.
