Showing already? 9 weeks pregnant

Hi, so I’m pregnant with my second child (my first is nearly 9 months now).

And I swear I’m showing already, this pregnancy I’ve had really bad nausea? If I don’t eat every 2/3 hours I will just start gagging, I’m never sick I just have my stomach freak out on me! So it means I’m eating quite a lot more, I’d just gotten to nearly pre baby size when I found out I was pregnant and I’ve climbed right back up on the scales so it’s either bloat and fat or a little baby bump. But it’s positioned kind of low?

Also does anyone have any tips on hiding it? We’re not telling my partners son until we know the gender and his mum was upset when she found out I was due with number one so we’re keeping it under wraps until week 20 or until we find out the gender if we get an early scan.

Anyone else start showing with baby number 2 early?

Congratulations on your pregnancy 🙂 I’m also pregnant with number 2 and started showing a bump at 9/10 weeks- we’re also not telling anyone til we know the gender - I’ve been wearing baggy clothing, I walk with my sister in law every morning to take my son to nursery and I don’t think she’s noticed 😁🤞

I think it’s something to do with having a small gap between pregnancies, I got pregnant when DD was 12 months and I was definitely showing by about 11 weeks…

Look on the bright side it’s winter! So lots of loose jumpers etc. I talked a lot about how I still had so much baby weight to lose Grin

I would have really struggled to keep it under wraps until 20 weeks, sorry!! But yeah, I think all you can do is wear loose clothes (dark colours I guess maybe?) and keep fingers crossed. I too was back at my pre DC1 weight when I conceived but I suspect that showing was more about muscles not having snapped back rather than weight 🙈

Literally exactly the same! !my last pregnancy was a breeze, barely sick at all and this time the sickness is horrendous and the only thing that stops me feeling sick is eating! I wouldn't say I look pregnant per se but definitely my stomach feels harder and rounded! But my goodness... the nausea is just horrendous!
