Is the 2nd bump always bigger?

With my first pregnancy, I was starving for a couple of weeks only, didn't put much weight on and had a neat bump

I'm now 9 weeks pregnant with my second, cannot stop eating, and already have a bump (although I think this is just a good baby!)

Is the 2nd bump always bigger as you have already "stretched" once? And do you get fatter?!

I'm going to be a beached whale at this rate

Definitely smaller with my second. With my first I went from a 10 to an 18 very quickly, I'm 31 weeks tomorrow with number two and still in most of my own clothes.

2nd time around I had a very visible bump from 8 weeks, and it was definitely much, much bigger all the way through. Because twins.

I was a lot bigger 2nd time round but did have a bigger baby also. Congratulations!
