Bump size second time round

Keen to hear from people who have more than one child and how their bump was second time round. I know that you can show sooner with subsequent pregnancies because your muscles are used to it etc. My pregnancies have been 5 years apart and this time took 4 rounds of IVF. The photo shows the difference at 14 weeks between pregnancies. My question is were you bigger throughout/at the end. Or did you ‘catch up’ at some point? X

It'll catch up. I'm just finishing off pregnancy number 2 and I'm measuring smaller this time than I did first time round.

Oh that’s interesting @Engard and did you show sooner/earlier like me? X

I was smaller 2nd time around but I think that's because I was smaller to start with

@Mummyspider27
Made a little comparison pic to see! Both were 12 weeks, I'm thinking I popped earlier second time?
I measure 2 weeks behind what I did in my first pregnancy, bbuuuttt I gained about 70lbs first pregnancy and only 14lbs this time which has probably affected it.

Due date for both DDs - nearly 5 years apart!

I showed much quicker second time and seemed to get a huge bump but in hindsight was a very similar size for both!
