When did you develop a bump in your subsequent pregnancies?

[Mooana]

They say you often show much earlier with 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc pregnancies.
I just wondered how much earlier!

Well I’m 9 weeks with my second and I could easily pass for 5 months after a meal. It is mainly bloating though!

I was easily showing by 6 weeks with dc2. By 9 weeks it was hard to hide. He was born weighing 10lb though...

Can't really remember with my second but I know with my third I needed stretchy jeans from around 8-9 weeks, but with my fourth I managed to keep it secret from family (not from DH) until 17/18 weeks so wasn't showing too much.
Although I got pg when DC3 was 7 months so was probably still looking pg/fat from him. DC4 was a smaller baby 8lb 4 at 39 weeks compared to DC3 who was 9lb at 37 weeks and I was polyhydramnious with DC3.

First baby, didn't show till gone 25 weeks.

Second baby, started the "bloat bump" early on before 12 weeks but can't remember when. I definitely did not get a real bump till gone 20 weeks though as have got a pic on an empty stomach at 18 weeks and belly is as flat as you could possibly get!

Third time round now and I'm 18 weeks almost. I'd say from about 6 weeks I was badly bloated. I definitely have a bump now and would say it turned properly from bloat to bump around 16 weeks maybe?

Basically I think you just bloat more and more with each pregnancy until the actual bump pops out, which again is probably going to be earlier than before

I had a bump at 10 weeks with DC2. Currently 23weeks and I swear I’m almost as big now as I was with DD1!! X

*as big as I was full term with DD1!

Coming out of th toilet after taking the pregnancy test!
Honestly I had one straight away : )

I started showing with dd1 at 14 weeks ds2 not until about 18. First time my bump was massive I was massive in general bloated and swollen all over ds1 was born at 41 weeks at 7lbs 3oz, second time I was discribed as neat when I was 38 weeks I looked more like 30 people where visibly shocked when I said I was full term ds2 was born at 39 weeks 7lbs 1oz.

I was much fitter second time and stayed very active the whole way until giving birth it made so much difference apart from weight I had less aches and pains and less digestive gripes.

Relieved to hear people who showed later in second pregnancies! I had a very small bump with my first and thought I'd pop quicker with my second but I'm now 20 weeks and unless I'm wearing tight clothes nobody would notice and even then I could just look like I'd gotten a little chubby!! About to have our twenty week scan and I'm terrified they're going to tell me I imagined it all and have just been eating too much cake!

I honestly can't remember with my previous pregnancies!

This is my 4th and I'm 15 weeks at the moment. I definitely have something there now but I can never work out of its bloat or a bump!

I'm 10 weeks with my second and am very bloated. TBH though I'm sure it's just from eating tons of crap to beat the constant nausea, added to a very sluggish digestive system! I'll be on a big health kick as soon as the morning sickness passes, so hope to lose some of the 'bump'!

1st pregnancy people didn’t notice until about 24 weeks.

2nd pregnancy I was still in workout gear at 20 weeks having not announced pregnancy and people hadn’t noticed.

First time at 20 weeks I was barely showing. Had a 9lb baby but most of the bump appeared during the 3rd trimester (and actually got so big I found it hard to get clothes to fit it!). This time I have a small bump at nearly 11 weeks. Prior to this I had loads of bloat and swollen tummy but that started to disappear around 9 weeks.

I am 24 weeks exactly with Dd2 you cannot tell I'm pregnant. I just look fat. My OH says i do but nobody has noticed yet and we haven't announced it only to family. I didn't show at all with DD1. I was big to begin with with both pregnancys so maybe that is why i don't show xx

I'm 14 weeks with baby nó. 4 and have an obvious bump. Jeans are getting tight now. Have been showing for afew weeks now but I'm sure a lot of it is bloat

Around 20 weeks with my second. Any "bump" in the first few months is bloating and stretched stomach muscles - at least that's what my midwife said. I think it's normal to "show" at various points as it all depends on your body shape and how you're reacting to pregnancy.
