Showing when becoming pregnant

[lorraineox]

Hey girls. How quick did you start showing after becoming pregnant?. This is my second baby x

I was def in maternity clothes by 16 weeks with second! I can't remember exactly when it was though!

Ive only had one pregnancy but didn’t show til 27/28 weeks. I’ve heard it usually happens sooner with a second pregnancy though

My first I was 5 months. Pregnant with my second but only 7 weeks so no sign yet!

This is my second and I was in maternity close by 10 weeks 😂 I'm very big for 5 month now!

I'm 12 weeks with my second and definitely starting to show now! So hard to hide it but I must keep going until my scan on Thursday!

13.5 weeks with my third. I've just bought maternity jeans.

A lot earlier with my second. With my first I wasn’t showing at all for 20 weeks and even then it was a tiny bump. With my second I was noticeably pregnant by 8 weeks. I’m 4.5 weeks with my third now so will see if it’s any sooner this time

First pregnancy 26 weeks

Has anyone had a private early scan to see if everything is ok with the baby? Heard you can get one at 8 weeks. I'm around 5-6 weeks and really impatient to wait until my 12 week scan as I want to know everything is ok. As the midwives can tell a lot can they?.

You can get one from 6 weeks but I would personally wait until at least 7 because they may not be able to see the baby or a heartbeat which might end up worrying you more. I had one at 7+3 (in my first pregnancy ) and could see a small fuzzy outline of a blob and a heartbeat. I had another one at 8+5 as I was worried as my symptoms had stopped and there was a proper little baby there waving his arms at me so I’d definitely say it’s worth waiting as long as your patience will allow.

Also at 6 weeks it’s likely to be transvaginal which isn’t the most pleasant experience 😂

I'm pregnant with our first and I began showing around 14 weeks, am almost 16 weeks now and definitely showing / can't hide it 😳

13 weeks pregnant with number 4 and showing. First 2 were 20 weeks & 3rd 16 weeks.

I can't remember the exact number of weeks with first baby but think was probably at least 20 to have noticeable bump.
This time round I feel its already noticeable at 13 weeks. Started looking for some maternity stuff today, its not been cold and I've been living in baggy yoga pants but can't keep doing that much longer!

Oh lord second time it was so early, can’t remember exactly but well before scan and people knew. I think my tummy muscles were still week and it all just hung out. I seemed to balloon in that pregnancy the plateau without as much growth in the middle stages.
