Anyone else sometimes 'forget' they're pregnant?!

I know this sounds a bit odd, but im 17+5 and not felt baby move yet, haven't got much of a bump and most of my symptoms have disappeared (fingers crossed). So sometimes I forget im pregnant! Does anyone else get this sometimes? I don't know if im just expecting to feel different ALL the time but at the minute i just feel like i did before i was pregnant (but a bit fatter). Just wondered if its just me.

I'm 32 weeks and while I don't forget I'm pregnant I do feel fat and not pregnant

At about 16-17 weeks I decided to clean our windows by standing on a chair on the balcony; it was only when I started telling my partner my plan that it occurred to me I was pregnant and that it was a stupid thing to do even when not pregnant.

mumbo yerrrppp! I'm 19 weeks today, not a lot of movement to report, often forget!
This is my second and I was huuuuge the first time round, this time I feel podgy but not pregnant so I definitely forget!

Think it's usual. Currently pregnant with no2 and kept so busy with DD that's it's easy to forget. As the bump gets bigger it's more obvious tho and effects your mobility more.

I think I'll feel better when i start to feel movements, right now i just feel like im on some rubbish diet where im not allowed wine but im still getting fatter, have to keep reminding myself of the huge reward at the end! At least when baby starts prodding me il have more of a constant reminder, and less of a worry that something might be wrong too.

Yurp. Especially when everyone else is having a glass of wine or I run for the bus or bend over. And then...it all comes back to me!

I'm in the same boat and i don't feel movement yet. I'm hoping it will change when i do :)
