I'm 17 weeks and still no discernible bump... I'm starting to worry, is this normal?? I've put on weight, but just look fat, not pregnant! Shouldn't I be showing by now? Probably worrying too much...

lucky you.i was like that with my first due to good stomach muscles and was still in my jeans at 6 months. the midwife kept worrying me asking if i was eating etc but my son came out a healthy 8 lbs 13 oz and looked like a rugby player and went straight back into my jeans when i walked out of maternity, in fact when i was in hospitable in my tight lycra leggings the midwives kept stopping me and saying this area is for patients only!!! and wouldnt believe me that id just given birth until they checked their records to who i was and kept commenting hoe amazing i looked! however , second pregnancy i piled on the pounds from day one and still looked about 5 months pregnant afterwards so be proud of the fact youve got strong stomach muscles!!well done you!!

U should be greatfull!! i am just under 9 weeks pg and i am worrying about not being able to fit through the doors in a few months (maybe weeks) time!! i am already growing out of normal size clothes and i was already a size 16-18!! i think i may have to break out the maternity clothes sooner then i had planned! oh well i guess i can enjoy it and hope it drops off as quickly as it is gaining on my now!!!!!!
