I'm 9+1 with DC2. DC1 is only 8 months so I lost alot of my pg weight but not all of it.
I'm now obviously PG at only 9 weeks. Is this normal for a second pregnancy? It's def not twins as I've had a scan already.
I just feel ridiculous telling people I'm pregnant this early but I feel like I have to as I'm really quite big and in mat clothes already.
I'm sure it's nothing to worry about but I just feel embarrassed.
Anyone else had this?

Definitely normal to show earlier with second babies!

Also normal to show earlier if there's more than one in there Wink.

Definately not twins!!! I've had a scan due to some bleeding and only one in there!!!!

don't worry, a lot of it probably just bloating anyway, and you'll probably have a few weeks of shifting about. i thought i was showing at 9 weeks (second child) but it's been huge tummy/flat tummy from day to day and week to week. now i'm 18 weeks and my tummy still looks sort of flat some days!

I podged out quite early with dc2. I had to wear maternity jeans from 10 weeks. I didn't end the pregnancy any bigger than the first one though.

Darn. I love a good surprise twin thread :o

Congratulations btw!

Sorry to disappoint snickeringfox !! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who bumped out early. It's just a pain trying to hide it when I'm failing miserably! I'm just at that stage where it's questionable whether I'm pregnant or fat!! Urrghh!

Same here,10 weeks & a nice big belly. It is funny seeing peoples faces coz they aren't sure if I'm just getting fat again I have lost loads of weight recently & when I say I'm pregnant the relief in their eyes does make me giggle x my bf keeps saying triplets! No scan yet so who knows?!?

mine went from really big a couple of weeks ago to flat again now and i am nearly 9 weeks. with my second i went straight into maternity clothes then back out of them and didnt go back in until i was around 7 months!

I was HUGE early on with all mine! No hiding it, everyone would know I was pregnant from around week 6. Although I would hardly change in size in last trimester. It was like I did all the growing first 7 months.
