Still no baby bump
I am just about 17 weeks and I still have no bump. I was a little overweight pre-pregnancy, but is this normal? Baby is measuring right and growing fine, so I'm not concerned there.
My pre-pregnancy pants are too tight, but I have not gained much weight (maybe only 3-5lbs).
No one can even tell I am pregnant
If you were a little over weight to begin with, when did you really start to show?

Still no baby bump
i wasnt really showing at 17 weeks I popped around 22 - 23 weeks. From what everyone is saying i'm all belly which is fine with me and i've only gained 14 pounds so far and i'm 34 weeks today. I was on the thicker side ;) to begin with. Don't worry as long as everything is measuring fine with the doc you will pop before you know it.

Re: Still no baby bump
I was a normal weight/had a flat stomach pre-pregnancy and I didn't show until after 22 weeks. No one knew I was pregnant by just looking at me, and even at 22 weeks strangers were questioning whether or not it was a bump at that point... I didn't actually start to get big and truly show people i was pregnancy until about 25 weeks. I didn't get comments from strangers until after 30 weeks.

I just started showing and I'm 23 weeks. Some people tell me that can't even tell I'm pregnant. I too am a little on the thicker side but don't worry your bump will appear before you know it.

Re: Still no baby bump
I am 17 weeks too. I gained about 7 pounds so far and while I have switched to maternity pants, I still wear normal clothes. The tops are just tight in the boobs.
I am still hiding it from work.
I feel like I just look bloated/post Christmas weight, not pregnant.
I hope I start looking cute soon too!

Re: Still no baby bump
With both of my kids my pants didnt start getting tight until about 16 weeks and I didnt start looking pg till about 20 weeks. I am assuming it will be the same for me this time around.

Re: Still no baby bump
With my 1st you really couldn't tell until about 26wks, and that was if I really worked it with the maternity clothes. By 35wks I could wear the cute roushed tops, and not look just fat. I could still wear my prepregnancy tops until the end with her. With my 2nd I was about 16wks, but I showed much faster and got a lot bigger

Re: Still no baby bump
I'm plus sized and I don't think I started to show until 20 weeks. Although my clothes didn't fit and I needed maternity pants.

Still no baby bump
Everyone is different, don't worry you'll get your bump soon! I'm the opposite, I'm just 12 weeks and not out at work yet but I know everyone "knows", I'm HUGE this time. People I've recently told all have said "You know, I thought you were but I was afraid to ask". This is #2 for me though so I think that's why. I kinda wish it weren't so obvious but it is what it is. Just a flip side to what you're saying!

Re: Still no baby bump
I was overweight before and I only started showing around 20-22 weeks. I'm not even sure if people who don't know me can notice yet now at 24 weeks. It might be the way I carry or just because I had a smaller waist and wasn't heavy in my upper belly. I still barely look pregnant from the front.
