When did you start to show in second pregnancy?

Just as the title says!

Due to go to a wedding at 11 weeks and don't really want to tell any one yet so trying to work out if I need to find a dress to cover my tummy area!

I started to show at 13 weeks with my first but everyone says they show a lot sooner with the second!

I'm 11 weeks with my second, and I am already showing. I definitely felt like I was showing earlier this time around - I haven't told everyone at work yet, but I think I will have to this week because it's beginning to get obvious! (if they haven't realised already!)

17 weeks. I was on holiday and suddenly realised only one outfit would fit

About 20 minutes after my positive test! Popped really early, but now at 39 weeks I can see that I haven't ended up any bigger than last time. It just all happened in the first trimester

I definitely had a little bump earlier second time, at around 16 weeks. With my first pregnancy, I didn’t show til about 22 weeks though.

Pretty soon into first trimester but a lot was bloating. I think I have more fat on my stomach than I did in my first pregnancy as well so that's making things worse! I think I did look actually pregnant from 14 weeks. There seems to be a difference between low down bloat and that protruding curve you get below your ribs when you're pregnant.
Am now 22 weeks and definitely have a proper bump!

I think it really depends hugely on how much you bloat (relative to non pregnancy). Someone close to me guessed I was pregnant at 9 weeks with my first. I’m only at 4 weeks now and I’m already too bloated for some of my jeans 😂 it definitely evened out in tri2 but I suspect that unless I hide under baggy clothes for 2 months then people are going to clock it pretty soon.

I’m 5 weeks now and the bloat is unreal 🙃 I’m assuming it’ll settle down and then a bump will come later??

I think I was probably about 18 weeks when I started showing first time round. If this bloat doesn’t settle soon people are going to clock before I’m halfway through my first trimester!

I'm 11 weeks currently and showing considerably and having to dress to hide it. I think it's probably bloat not baby but it doesn't really matter if it looks like you're pregnant when you're trying to hide it IYSWIM
