9 weeks with my second pregnancy and I’m so bloated I look about 5 months, and I’m in maternity jeans!! It’s getting hard to hide my belly even though I know it’s not baby!

I know with a second you tend to show sooner, will the bloat just sick around and turn into bump?!?

I had bloating from the moment I got my BFP. What surprised me was that the bloating was constant, so it was like having a real bump!

When I got to 14 - 15 weeks it started to go back to normal which was weird because it was like my bump had deflated and I didn't feel pregnant anymore! I'm now 18 weeks and the bloating comes and goes. Sometimes my belly is huge and sometimes its small.

As for hiding it, I'm a petite size 6 / 8 so it was quite tricky but I wore loose fitting / boyfriend style tops and floaty blouses. I also wore scarves that dangled down over my belly. As far as I'm aware no one noticed, but I was definitely huge!

I am currently 11 weeks and clearly showing!! It’s not solid bump so it has to be bloat and other organs shuffling about but it’s almost impossible to hide at this stage!

I’m 9 weeks and I’m so bloated as well, my friend is 20 weeks and we compared belly’s and I look as big as her even tho I’m naturally size 8-10 . Hopefully it will go down I just wish I was the real bump!! Haha

I'm the exact same - the bottom of my belly feels firm, where my uterus is, but the rest is obviously bloat. I'm also a size 8-10 and so my belly is super obvious!!
