I'm 8+4 with dc2 and I appear to have a bump already. I'm guessing its primarily bloating as have been bloated since before my bfp but its definitely there. I was wondering when the rest of you second timers started to show. I'm only 5'3 and usually about a size 10/12, not sure if that makes a difference.

I felt that I saw showing at 8 weeks, and now at 10 weeks, I still look and feel fat. With my first, it was more like 16 weeks before I started to show. Looking forward to having more of a bump....

Glad its not just me then! Seriously by the time I've eaten dinner I look about 6 months.

Skinny little thing here. Was in maternity jeans by 10 weeks (both times!).

Stomach all back to normal these days, my bumps just popped out early on.

Glad this thread is here! I'm just short of 9 weeks and in the past 2 days have really started to feel a bump coming. I now can't suck my stomach in to make myself look thinner! First time round, I just wore bigger clothes to begin with and didn't hit maternity gear until at least 16 weeks. This time, I think I might be wearing maternity jeans really quite soon!

With my first I didn't start to show (and so didnt tell anyone!) until
I was about 20 weeks!

This time my bump popped out alot sooner, about 16 weeks, but I've only just had to break the stretchy pants out at week 23!
