Second pregnancy?

Bit of a random one.... when did everyone's bumps start to show with their second pregnancy? I was huge with my first so just wondering if I'm going to be rolling myself around earlier this time 😂

About 16weeks for me!
Congratulations, how exciting!
I hated being pregnant but kinda miss it now! :)

I had a small but noticeable bump from about 11 weeks, and have been in maternity jeans from week 16! I’m now nearly 25 weeks and feel massive. On the other hand, a few weeks ago I was talking to a lady who is expecting her 4th child the day after mine and you couldn’t even tell she was pregnant!

I went straight from bloating to bump and I have no idea when it switched. I was in maternity clothes by 16 weeks though

Didn't know I was pregnant with Dd2 until I was 5mths.
Was in size 14 when I was 9mths. Bump was really small.

Been in maternity trousers since 14 weeks... Showing since 10. Itvs like my body just went straight back to how it was when pregnant before 😩

I loved being pregnant with my little girl ☺️ I'm hoping this pregnancy is straightforward too 🤞🏻

My bump only popped out at 25 weeks with her
I'm super bloated at the moment. My work pants are already getting tight! Can you buy maternity ones?

I'm in maternity clothes at 10 weeks and have been for a while now. None of my trousers have done up since around week 7. I had a visible bump by 14 weeks last time and theres already a definite belly on the way now.

@MooMummy12 I’ve managed to buy some smart maternity trousers from Next online. Not cheap, but it’s not like I have a choice as my work dress code is smart and strictly no denim (apart from casual Fridays, if you don’t have customer meetings).

@PeachesandPie I've got a feeling I'm going to be like that.

I could probably get away with leggings behind the till but will have to see what work say.

@PrincessSarene Thankyou I'll have a look :) x
