Hiya I'm currently 36wks pregnant with #4 and I too felt like I was showing early....luckily nobody asked but you could get away with saying your bloated after eating and wear some clever clothing to hide it for now 😊

Yup pregnant with 4th (14 weeks now) and was showing from 6 weeks and have been asked recently when I'm due. When I tell them I get the classic - are you sure there is only 1 in there...?! Been in maternity trousers since about 6/7 weeks too.
I honestly think I will be the size of a house by the end lol.

You are not alone. Dsis in law said I'm already showing few weeks back (she knew). Luckily Hmm I have also been eating the nausea away, so the rest of my body grew too. Most people just see me eat and assume most of the fat is going to my stomach. At least that is what I have been telling myself. I'm 11weeks +1

Yup not alone in this - despite carrying DS2 small I appear to be carrying obviously already at 7 weeks. I know it is mostly bloat as that is what Google throws up part I cannot help but think it is also because my msucles know how to pop straight back out easily now (especially as I only gave birth 4 months ago!)

But I have told everyone I am pregnant, dont see point in hiding it tbh!

I’m on number 3. I have a bump but it’s bloat!’ It was worse around 7-9 weeks but the bloat has calmed down a bit now. So o only look pregnant around teatime!!!

I'm so greatful for the reply's I don't feel so bad now!

My OH loves it I already feel massive and I'm
No where near being at the u comfortable stage yet!

I was big when I carried my 2 DS both pregnancy's my daughter I didn't really have a bump was bizzare I am also assuming I am looking bigger because I am stretched to the max already and it's never gone back fully afterwards. Doesn't help I am very small framed so it makes it more clear it's sticking out!!

I do have another question tho mummy's, I have been really nauseous and my breasts have been so so sore today however it's eased and now tonight gone! Is this normal? Don't want to google as I started and it was horrible things also my tummy sounds like it's growling constantly what on earth is that about!! Xx

@MummaL32

Definitely showed earlier with this pregnancy, whether it’s bloating or muscle tone being loose earlier due to being number 4.

I wouldn’t worry about your nausea. I can say this time around it’s been so bad and different, had days when I felt a bit better in the evening, others when I continued feeling nauseous until I felt asleep. It varies with each pregnancy. I had both boys and a girls so don’t think in my case it’s an indicator for it.

I also had some moments when I was( and still am) terribly hungry, my tummy will rumble and I know I’ve eaten enough. I try to keep an apple for those moments as I can’t eat fruit after lunch/dinner.

I think this pregnancy is going to be a challenge my partner has a child too so every other day we have him so four kids under 10 every other day is wiping me out without the pregnancy on top

I am sure a lot of belly is lose muscle and bloating but it's not going down at all might have to tell family sooner then planned as they will know if they see me think I need a trip to the shops for some bigger clothes

Anyone else suffering with a bad back? I don't know if I am over panicking yesterday when it all just stopped symptom wise you can't help but panic

This doesn't feel like any of the other three so I am glad I am not alone with this! Also I can't believe how much it's changed you used to visit the Docotors when first pregnant now it's an online form. X
