I’m 17 weeks with my 2nd and look as big as 30 weeks with my first! So I’ve definitely popped quicker lol

I felt baby around 14 weeks this time round

The person I sat next to at work was getting suspicious from about 10 weeks.

With my second I could feel her wriggling around from about 13 weeks but I didn’t Look preg till about 20 weeks. I wore my normal jeans to my 20 week scan.

About week 7 or 8! I was in size 14 jeans up until birth with my first, not so lucky this time round!

I'm 12 weeks atm with my 5th pregnancy but 2nd baby to get this far. I'm defo showing already no sucking in that belly anymore! Didnt show with my first until over 20 weeks haha. Sure I've felt little pops too but can't be sure it hasn't been wind

I was the same about 30 weeks with both. I kept expecting to show early and bump never appeared!

6 weeks tomorrow and I assume it's just bloat but my stomach sticks out a lot!! None of my clothes fit. I had a c section and abdominal muscles are shot which I don't think is helping Grin

I felt much more bloated in the first trimester with my second. I felt really self conscious that my belly was sticking out... but it did seem to disappear a bit before I got a proper bump. I'm now 23 weeks and I feel huge... but looking at pictures of my first pregnancy, I'm not massively bigger, I obviously just feel it!

Definitely before 12 weeks with my second. If I had my bare belly out you would have seen something from about 10 weeks. Baggy T-shirt's covered me for a while but my mum did ask me when I was planning on telling people because it was starting to look obvious. I can't remember how far along I was then but I do remember telling her I wouldn't be telling anyone until after my 12 week scan (which was actually at about 13 weeks)

I had an anterior placenta so didn't feel any movements until quite late though.

I think I read that you do tend to show earlier with second and subsequent pregnancies because your stomach muscles have already separated or something like that. That's probably even more likely if there's not a long gap between pregnancies because there's been less time to heal (but that's just me guessing based on nothing)

I felt like I showed on day one!

I'm currently pregnant with my third baby and have had a definite bump shaped tummy (rather than just bloat shaped tummy) from ten weeks. I absolutely look pregnant rathe than fat.

LizJamIsFab · 14/05/2021 11:01

Way sooner than my first but I can’t really remember when it was noticeable to me. I remember telling family at 14 weeks and they had noticed my belly already!

georgarina · 14/05/2021 11:14

I actually don't think I'm showing any more in this pregnancy than my first. But I'm definitely bigger all over than I was first time - with DS I just looked like I swallowed a basketball.
