Pregnancy body with 2nd baby

I am currently 14 weeks pregnant and I am huge already? I have a very prominent belly and put on weight everywhere else.
It doesn't help with lockdown and wanting to eat bad foods but with my 1st I didn't show for ages.
Is this normal to put on weight this quickly?

Im 31 weeks with my second and yes it appears to be normal. I showed much sooner and every physical symptom i had in first pregnancy emerged much earlier. I think its just where your body has done it before its easier for it to do it again. And i only had 6 months pp before my 2nd pregnancy so you can how quickly i chubbed up again lol.

Yehh.. I was much bigger with my second. Not weight wise but bump size! I had Hyperemesis so I actually lost weight initially but my bump shot out!

I put on 3 stone which was identical to my first oddly but my bump was twice the size! But when I gave birth, I realised why.. even the midwife was astonished by the amount of water around baby! It just kept on coming! She’d think that had to be the last of it & then I’d get another contraction and out case more 🙈 my baby was actually smaller than my first!
