Im 17 weeks pg with dc #3 (5th pg though) and not even a tight button keep wondering if i am actually pg!

ah broodymom at least you can avoid the maternity clothes for as long as possible,

I have plenty of friends that only start showing after 20 or so weeks.

lol at conception!! I showed at 9 wks with number 2, so if i'd had another, I would have showed at conception too!

Those blooming marvellous jeans with the 3 inch thick covered elastic the whole way round, ah bliss, just settle into it. don't fight it by fiddling about with elastic bands and so on.

I was showing within 8 minutes and 36 seconds. At 3 weeks I looked like 5 months pregnant with tiwns. At term I was a veritable zeppelin. Naturally I enjoyed all the awe-struck faces and comments about how this must be a mega mutliple birth.

At 18 weeks + 5 days pg with number 4 I already feel and look fairly big. I haven't put on any more weight then I should but I certainly have a good size bump.

I was in my maternity clothes by week 12.

LargeGlassofRed · 10/11/2008 10:41

Hi I'm with you LGofR. I'm 7 weeks with No. 4 and can barely fit into anything. How am I going to keep it all quiet? Unfortunately I gave all my maternity clothes away about 2 years ago as 'I definitely was not having any more!!!' Looks like I'll have to do some shopping quite soon

Fiveplusbump · 10/11/2008 13:30

I am 12 weeks and my Bump has just popped out and you can tell I am PG now not just bloated .
Got a few looks at school this morning .

Congratulations BTW .

LargeGlassofRed · 10/11/2008 21:52

I like you have given away all my maternity/baby gear,
Will be no doubt trawling ebay

I have 3 DS's who are 11, 7 and 5 (nearly 6). Not quite sure what possessed me to decide to go for no.4, but I think it was one of those 'Oh my God I'm 40 next year, it's either now or never!' My DH has always wanted 4, but had resigned himself to having 3 when I said I didn't want any more and gave all our stuff away.

As you say, I will be trawling ebay and the January sales I'd like to have a look now as lots of my clothes are too tight, but it feels a bit like tempting fate, so I'm going to try and hang on until I'm 12 wks.

Thank goodness for hipster jeans and baggy jumpers

Don't know about No 4 but I'm almost 14 wks with No3 and am HUGE.
Have been showing since about 7 wks.........god only knows what I'll be like with No4! Am well into maternity clothes now, my normal clothes look like childrens clothes on me!

spidermama ha ha! I was asked by one of those perfume women in debenhams 'how long do you still have to go?'. That was when I was about 9 wks! I was absolutely speechless. I know I look quite pregnant, but I've got to last until May!!!!!
