I'm 17 weeks with 3rd baby is this normal no bump confused

Yes it's very normal. I still hav mornings that I wake up and bump gone lol. Depends where baby is lying. Also baby is still soo small rite now. Lots of room to hide. As baby is curled up nice & neatly x
 
I'm 20 weeks 3 days measuring at 21 weeks 2 days and I have no bump. Some women take longer, and it appears you have a small bump. You're fine!
 
I worry about this too! I'm just over 17 weeks with baby number one. I have only gained 1lb and have no bump what so ever. I am slim, uk size 6-8 and thought I'd show straight away. At 11 weeks I had some bloating which I thought was the start but nope! I had a scan at 14 weeks and everything was fine so I just tell myself he must be hiding. The only body change I have is my boobs are now massive and have been since about 6 weeks.
I hope it's normal and later when I'm massive I'll look back and think how lucky I was!
 
I'm pretty sure you're just fine. I see a tiny bump there :)

I'm 20 weeks with baby #2 and no one believes me when I tell them I'm pregnant.
 
You do have a bump Hun :)
I'm 20+3 with my 3rd and mine is very similar to yours! Had my 20wk scan yesterday as baby is measuring absolutely perfect!
 
My bump disappeared when I was lying down yet I stood up and went to toilet and by the time I came back my bump was back in all its glory! Depends where baby is lying!
 
My belly looked liked yours the day I gave birth to my dd at 37 wks last time - I'm tall with a long torso and she was only 5lb but very healthy - All women/pregnancies are different.
I think you definitely have a bump and at only 17 weeks I wouldn't worry at all xx
 
I'm coming up to 20 weeks and my bump hasn't got to my belly button yet, still pretty low. And when I feel baby wiggle and kick he's still very much snug and near my pelvis. Baby will be getting higher and higher each week. I'm guessing it's around 24 weeks that it's up by your belly button to make a good round little bump :)
It's fine! Some days baby is high/lower too! One day I'll feel huge the next not so much!

I feel I've grown a lot since 17 weeks! X
 
Your height does make a difference, if you are taller there is more room for the bump to hide.

There was someone at my office who had a smaller bump than you at 28w, her daughter was a healthy weight. I wouldn't worry.
 
I see a bump. I'd say my bump is about the same size as yours and this is my third baby too. I'm average height at 5' 5", I'd only worry if the doctor was concerned ie baby measuring way behind. no on knows I'm pregnant unless I tell them, and I'm fine with that. I know I'll get bigger, my second was born at 7 lbs 9 oz, so it's only a matter of time.
 
Both pregnancies I have been totally flat at 17 weeks. With my first the bump didn't come till around 24/25 weeks, with this one it was around 21/22 weeks, but even then, my bumps were small. This one started sooner, but now at nearly 30 weeks, they're about the same size. I stayed small all the way through with my son, but he was 9lbs at birth. Baby size and bump size have little correlation if you ask me; it's all down to the torso length and abdominal tone of the mother. Here are shots taken when I was around 17 weeks in both pregnancies. First picture is my first pregnancy and second is this pregnancy.

I didn't have a bump at that stage with my first. I'm on my second now and it's bigger but still low down. I'd say you have nothing to worry about at all. There's a bump forming there and should notice a difference in a few weeks :)
 
Yes it is normal, especially if it is your first child and you have strong abdominal muscles.

I met a pregnant woman in line at a coffee shop and asked her how far along she was and mentioned that I was 20 weeks. She was shocked and didn't even realise that I was pg! I have however began to "pop" over the last week or so and have even had my first person ask if I was expecting! My point is that everyone carries differently, as long as your midwife says all is good, I wouldn't worry.

You will miss your tiny bump when you are huge and uncomfy! lol!
 
I am also pregnant with #3. Here's my bump 16+4 and then what I look like in a top. Not one person has known I was pregnant yet. To me, it's obvious because I did have a fairly flat belly before, but no one else can guess yet.

You do look like you've got a bump to me.

Some people are just smaller! I'm 5'3" and started at a healthy weight. This picture was taken yesterday. My boy is measuring exactly at gestation and is weighing in at the proper weight. Up until about last week, i had a tiny "bump", if you can even call it that. Looked more like I had a little bloat, but that's it. Granted my bump is still very tiny, but it's filling out more and hardening up :) (finally! :D)I wouldn't worry too much :) be thankful you're still tiny!

I'm 17 weeks with baby #2 and my bump looks like that. I didn't start showing with 1st until almost 22 weeks or so, so I'm just slowly showing with this one.

Very normal and as the other ladies said depends on where baby is laying.
 
29 weeks with dd, I went on to have an almost 8 ib baby - 7ib12
This one is following in the same footsteps so far. Nobody at my university has even looked twice at me yet, my family, including oh, keeps forgetting I'm even pregnant. xx
