Still not really showing at 17 weeks?

I'm 17 weeks, 5'4, 110 pounds and still not really showing yet. I have a small little pooch that looks like I ate way to much, but nothing more. I'm terrified that things are not growing very fast. Everyone else I know at this point had a bump that stuck out. Anyone else concerned with their lack of bump?  

Re: Still not really showing at 17 weeks?

  • I'm 18 weeks, still in my regular clothes and basically just look like I ate a big meal. I'm not worried about it, since all my appointments have been fine and and baby continues to develop on track.

  • Is it your first?  That could be why.  I am having a second child.  I'm 5'11 and thin but I definitely have a bump. I started showing early on.

  • I'm glad I'm not alone. I wasn't really thinking about until last night. I had a bad dream about the baby not growing anymore, so I panicked today. I swear, these super vivid dreams are great until it's a bad dream... then you can't stop thinking about them. 

    Thank you for your replies, I feel so much better. :) 

  • I'm 18 weeks and no real bump yet. But my doctor's appointments have been fine so I guess it's ok.

  • Don't worry...I am 16.5 weeks with my first, and I am super skinny at 102 lbs, 5'2''. I have a small pooch but not big enough to start maternity wear or get noticed by strangers. It's so hard to wait for the bump, but it will get here soon enough! :)

  • Definitely not worry-worthy.... I haven't gained any weight and although I look bloated it's definitely not obvious I'm pregnant. I say ENJOY it while it lasts.... the weight and body changes will come for sure ;)

  • I am almost 19 weeks with my 5th and I m still not showing. In my case I am not really worried.  I have lost a lot of weight so everything has sort of evened out.

  • With DD, I went on a business trip at 26 weeks, and multiple people who knew me (but hadn't seen me in a while) didn't realize I was pregnant. It was very obvious to ME at that point, but I definitely wasn't huge.

    That's not a problem the third time around. LOL.

  • I'm 17w with twins and strangers can't tell I'm pregnant. I still fit into my pre-pregnancy skinny jeans.
