Bloating / showing early

I'm currently 10 weeks pregnant with my second child and I am struggling to hide it!

I feel really bloated so think it's that that's making me look like I'm either 8 months or carrying triplets 🙈

Yep, second pregnancy for me too and the bloating was insane - I swear I looked 6 months pregnant when I was 8 weeks whereas first pregnancy I didn't show much at all until the third trimester!

I was exactly the same with my second child! First child no one could tell I was pregnant until well after 12 weeks but with the second I had to wear baggy clothes from about 6 weeks due to bloating, at 12 weeks I had a really big bump.

I was looking at photos of me pregnant last night. With DD I barely showed until well into the second trimester. With DS, 18 months later, I looked full-term pretty much from the time I got a positive test. Shock
