Big bump popped at 12 weeks!

[rachel200811]

I am pregnant with my second baby (DS is 3) at 12 weeks now and my bump looks like it did with my first one about 20 weeks! I have been eating way more carbs to curb the morning sickness, which has been much worse this time, but I was under 10 stone (I am 5 foot 3) when I fell, and following slimming world religiously for ages. I haven't put on loads of weight elsewhere over the last two months, just on my belly (low down) and am getting the usual (and very reassuring) heavy, stretchy pangs around my pelvis and achy under the 'bump'. I am actually quite embarrassed about my huge bump but am going to visit family abroad this week where I will be wearing summer clothes, it'll be harder to hide. Anyone else experience this so early on with number 2?

I’m about 11 weeks and noticed it yesterday! The same as you I’m a bit shocked!

I was hoping maybe it was bloat! With my first I didn’t really show until very late on (around 36 weeks).

im still hopeful it’s just bloat, maybe someone else can reassure us!

Its been coming on for a while, looking bloaty. But it looks like I'm about 6 months gone at least. So silly but I'm actually embarrassed about people thinking I'm dressing up a fat belly as a baby bump once they know I'm only 12+2 as its not possible otherwise. 🙈 Glad I'm not the only one. I'm usually a 12 and still am everywhere else 🤷‍♀️

@rachel200811 this is me but not quite 10 weeks yet and my first, I'm scared! 😱

Same I’m 13 weeks and hugeeee!!

definitely not bloating

Yep same also expecting no 2 and bump popped at 11/12 weeks. I'm 14 weeks now and look like I did at 22 weeks last time! Don't worry it's totally normal, you haven't eaten too much 😂 muscles are more relaxed second time round x
