Is it normal to be bigger in 2nd pregnancy?

[RachelG]

I'm 15 weeks pregnant in my second pregnancy, and I'm showing far more than I did at this point in my first pregnancy.

Is this common, or should I start to worry about gaining too much weight? At my scan last week the sonographer was happy that the baby's size and fluid volume was normal.

er yes! Im 38+with my second and i was in maternity jeans by 6 weeks and had a visible bump by 3 months! Every thing is all relaxed 2nd time round!

Yes it is common to get bigger quicker but apparently it all balances out towards the end. Somthing to do with abdominal muscles not being as tight second time around.

yes, but baby appears to be bigger this time as well (though am 33 weeks so more obvoius)

Yes, I'm 17 weeks and am really showing already!I look at least the size i was at 6.5 months with my first baby
