Hi, I was 17 weeks yesterday. My bump is slowly starting to appear, but its mostly after a day of food and is smaller in the morning. This is my first pregnancy! How exciting! Hope you're all getting on well. Feeling very tired in the evenings...

Hello I'm a week behind you. Had my midwife check up today, and she seemed happy with everything. Heard the babies heartbeat, shocked her at how much he/she was kicking

Bump is starting to pop out now too.. more so at night. My tiredness was really extreme in the early weeks, but tonight it's back with a vengeance! Was seriously considering going to bed at 7pm !

Glad everything is going well for you

Hi I was 17 weeks on Friday, and i have a slight bump starting to show, and I'm starting to feel uncomfortable lying on my front. Saw the midwife a couple of weeks ago and everything is going well so far. Unfortunately I have SPD again (had it last time) so I'm struggling a little bit with that, luckily most of the time when I'm walking I'm with my 2 yr old so we're going quite slowly anyway.

Hi there! I am 17 weeks tomorrow. Yay for us! Things have been going well and my energy is slowly coming back. Only problem is that I have sharp pains across my belly in the evenings. I presume that are my stomach muscles stretching...

Hi 18+2, first for me too. bump slowly developing, i worry its too small but nothing to compare to. Got 2nd scan a week on monday which I'm nervous and excited about. Baby movng about and small kicks started at the weekend, also worry some days itmoves less than others...think i worry too much, but its hard not to.

Despite a few wretches, I think my ms has stopped!

Congrats on pregnancy.

Yay to us is right! Congrats everyone

Yes, I was also worried abut my bump, it seems to go up and down too... Some days quite big, others it's not really there. Funny times, but I'm sure we won't be long popping out properly I couldn't close my top trouser buttons so I did buy a pair of mat jeans - v comfy and adjustable so you don't have to be huge bump-wise to wear them.
My next scan is the 20 wk anomaly on 23rd Feb. Hope that goes well!
