2nd time around quicker to gain...thoughts to hide

Due with my second in December and I am noticing that this time around my body remembers...a little to well how to expand. I wish I could fight the fatigue so that I could hit the gym to help manage this slightly. My concern is mainly that I would like to wait to tell my new job until my 14th week (towards the end of June). However, I am 9 weeks and my pants are tight! I already found myself doing the hair tie trick to expand the button hole on my jeans !!!  Why is it that carbs calm nausea? I think that is my down fall lol

Well any ideas on ways to dress to conceal a bump with out making it look obvious that you may be prego?

  • loose shirts, but also you are still at the bloating stage so it'll die down for a while over the next few weeks

  • I've been in maternity pants since like, week 6? It's been absolutely ridiculous. Hopefully you can hide behind loose shirts for a while!

  • I'm also 10 weeks and am already in maternity pants/shorts. I gave up last week. Also I feel so fat and frumpy I'm just wearing maternity shirts because I'd rather people assume I'm pregnant over just getting fatter. But that's my personal mental issue, I can see how why you wouldn't want to do that just yet at work. So in that case I would wear A line dresses and flowy tops. Thank God those are in style right now.

  • I was showing pretty quickly the 2nd time around too. Fortunately I was able to wear my normal clothes because I was carrying her so high. I was also still heavy from my 1st so nobody questioned me. Guess that's the one perk to being chubby, lol. I would go with the flowy tops. I know Old Navy had some cute ones.
