Twins as a second pregnancy question

Christakim

I was just wondering when you started showing if your twins were your second pregnancy.  I'm busting out of my jeans right now, but I'm thinking I'm just bloated because of the stim meds I was on for IVF and the Prometrium I'm on now.

I'm seriously thinking about whipping out my bella band soon.  Pathetic?

I didn't start wearing maternity pants until 18 weeks. I  had horrible morning sickness though and lost about 7-8 pounds. I never had any bloating w/ either pregnancy.

Thank you so much!!  We are SO unbelievably happy.  I can't believe I'm having twins!!!!! With a toddler.  It will be interesting and fun all at the same time :P

After first trimester...my morning sickness was so extreme...every time I stood up I was visiting the bathroom...didn't gain much weight until that went away

Was in maternity pants by 10 weeks. Had been wearing looser, flowier tops since before then to try to hide things!

girl...get that bella band out and wash those maternity clothes! lol

by 8-9 weeks, I threw in the towel and my maternity parents/shorts were SO much more comfy! they bella band lasted about a week...it got frustrating to readjust that thing and keep up with my toddler all day lol

bloat could be contributing but I only did follistim/PIO (no ivf or iui) so I didn't have that much bloat and I was still more comfy in my maternity stuff than anything!

and while you at it...if you see any long shirts or cute maternity stuff for later on on sale, get it! I hated it but I had to get a few more mat. clothes the further along I got....too big for the first preg.maternity clothes *sigh*

congrats!!!

I was bloated from about 7-10 wks, but it resolved. I still moved into maternity pants by the 2nd tri.

I had to switch to maternity pants around 12 weeks. I had lost some weight due to m/s so I think that helped keep me in my regular pants for a bit longer.

I had a real bump at about 8.5 weeks.   I didn't start showing at all with my first preg. until around 20 weeks, but I was in maternity clothes this time by the end of the first tri.

i was SOOOO bloated with the twins- and since my belly was already stretched from my first pg - i looked pg right away - week 6.... I was wearing maternity pants (the ones for early pg and pp) right away b/c I was so uncomfortable in regular pants.  I didn't wear maternity shirts until about 12w - which was still early -but needed b/c by then i truly was getting a belly and the bloat was gone.

I was looking for my maternity pants at 12 wks but, I don't work and live in my yoga stuff for the most part.

I dug my bella band out from the get go this time around.

Congrats on your pregnancy!!!!
