I'm 11 weeks today and I have a noticeable (to me at least!) bump. My scan isn't until 12+5 and I have no idea how I'm going to hide it until then. slightly concerned its twins

When did you show with your second pregnancy?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'm 11 weeks too and I feel like I've been showing for a couple of weeks now! My daughter is only 11 months so I never really lost the tummy pooch. They say your uterus has muscle memory and gets bigger much quicker the second time around. Just try and avoid tight clothing for the next couple of weeks. Oh and congrats!

I'm with you on that one! I'm only 8 weeks! I'm mostly permanent bloat though - I hope!
I'm back to work in a couple of weeks and won't be getting my dating scan until 13 weeks, so I'll have three weeks at work of trying to pretend I don't look 6 months pregnant. Eep!

Haha glad it’s not just me! I’ll try loose clothing. Congratulations to you both too!

I’m 10 weeks today with number 2 and am in maternity trousers!

Waitingonasmiley42 · 09/04/2018 08:09

About 16 weeks! Was in maternity clothes by 17.

Hiya

About 14 weeks with second and I'm 22 weeks now with a fair bump under boobs etc.

Very surprised at how quickly it bumped out but I'm 50kg lighter this time round so probably has something to do with it as well.

Good luck mamas

halfwitpicker · 09/04/2018 12:50

Oh god at about 8 weeks or something silly. Just popped.

YouCantBeSirius · 09/04/2018 13:56

I've just started showing in the past few weeks. Now almost 24 weeks.

Sabulous · 09/04/2018 17:02

I don't feel like I'm showing yet at 9 weeks as I have a tum already, but I had to go into maternity trousers at 5 weeks as I couldn't bear my jeans even slightly squashing my belly!

usernotfound0000 · 09/04/2018 18:18

I've definitely got more of a belly now at 9 weeks than I did before but it's mostly all bloat, it comes and goes and is worse at the end of the day.

Mrscog · 09/04/2018 18:19

About the time I took the test! Seriously though I was just so bloated for 12 weeks, then just as the bloating settled I had a bump anyway!

MinnieMousse · 09/04/2018 18:21

I had a few problems with my second pregnancy so didn't tell most people until after the 20 week scan. I just wore loose tops and nobody noticed.

BarryTheKestrel · 09/04/2018 20:19

I'm 14 weeks and have been in maternity jeans for 2 weeks now. I'm hoping it's bloat as otherwise I'm going to be huge. Last time I wasn't this size until 24/26ish weeks. It's difficult because very few people know at the moment and won't until the end of the month at the earliest!
