"17w pregnant" ?'s: At 17 weeks of pregnancy, the uterus is just reaching the sacral prominence which pushes the uterus forward into the abdomen ("showing"). The fullness from the growing uterus/fetus is now more noticeable (normal) and "morning sickness" should now be ending, allowing better nutritional supplement to the pregnancy. See your OB to assess progress regularly.
