Should I be worried?

I'm a FTM, and know everyone is different. But at 17 weeks, I have no bump. Should I be worried baby isn't growing properly? My OB only does 2 ultrasounds, once to confirm pregnancy and then at 20 weeks so I'm not able to see baby actually grow. Just feeling nervous

    You don't need to worry. With my first I didn't start showing until I was around 24 weeks. Everything should be fine :)

    Yes! It is my favorite sound in the world. And hearing it definitely keeps me calm for a few weeks lol.

    Your tiny hun! Looks like baby's got some serious stomach muscles to get through :-)

    I was stick thin when I carried my son, my stomach was like a washboard easy up until nearly 6 months. I know what it feels like though, you just wanna pop! It will happen, it's just cause your so tiny. Don't be worrying.

    When you do start to show, You'll prob look like a piece of string with a knot in the middle lol :-) that's what everyone used to say about me.
    Plus your bump will be lovely and neat.

    Congrats on being pregnant & being a FTM, it's so exciting :-)

    When I got pregnant I was tiny tiny. Everyone said it looked like I was on drugs. I'm almost 15 weeks and still barely showing. If you know how skinny I was before you could tell but a regular person will have no idea !! Don't worry
