Bump suddenly looks massive

I'm 24 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby and until 1 week ago it wasn't overly noticeable. But what a difference a week has made, I look HUGE! You'd think I'd never done this before, but I just can't remember a sudden growth spurt like this at this stage in previous pregnancies. Anyone else experience this type of sudden expansion??

Yes with my first, I was about 6/7 months couldn't really tell I was pregnant, I'm not exaggerating I went to bed woke up and had an undeniable bump, my mum even asked if I had stuck a jumper up my top! It's mad isn't it? This time I looked huge from about 5 months

I'm 23 weeks with my 3rd and mine popped about a week ago. I am suddenly massive and even my maternity t shirts aren't quite covering it!

I don't remember this before. I look full term :(

Do you also suddenly feel pregnant? I have been carrying on as normal but the last few days seem to have been a struggle! Getting out of a chair is a pain now!

Thanks Lymphy, glad to know I'm not alone. That's what's happened to me over the last few days and everyone and their granny think they need to comment. I'm trying to laugh it off but I feel like a bit of an oddity!! 😩😩

Yes. At 26 weeks with DS1 I went for an evening out in normal jeans, was a little uncomfortable by the end and had to undo my button on the way home. Woke up the next day and tried to put my jeans on, but I had a several inch gap. Couldn't even get close to doing them up. Literally over night!
