With DS1 I didn't have a bump till about 14 weeks and then it was a lovely neat little thing,

One by one my pregnancy belly has gotten bigger faster until now, at 10 weeks with DC4 I look about 5 month gone Hmm

Perhaps its just me letting my belly flop!

I had severe trapped wind pretty much from my BFP, so I looked pregnant from about 5 weeks. Hes my first. Lol :)

I've definately shown sooner with each pregnancy. With DD you could barely tell until I was 22 weeks then like you just had a small neat bump. With DS I had a noticable bump from about 12 weeks.

I'm currently pregnant with DC3 (31weeks) and have looked like a hippo since about week 5! :O

I don't mind it as I AM pregnant, but I'm dreading someone asking me how far I am and me whimpering '10 weeks' with them looking at my huge bump!!

i seem to be other way round with my 1st i got a bump straight away when i went for my 13 week scan had a pretty decent sized 1, however this time, im 11 weeks and still waiting for it to appear, i have nothing, my belly is actually smaller than before, im just dreading suddenly expanding over night

I think I started showing earlier the second time around, but now, with number 3, I only just stopped wearing my normal jeans at 32 weeks - and still fit my normal linen trousers. I expected everything to just expand from day one, but my bump has stayed neat and tidy this time around (thank God!)

Oh, and I am almost 35 weeks now.... a few stretch marks have started to appear now though....

Totoros - how is your sickness now?

TotorosOcarina · 24/09/2010 14:54

Still pretty bad pussin, feeling a bit better, if I eat more but needs to be very specific stuff... think I am annoying DH! lol
