2nd timers--- showing at 12 wks??

smiling76 · October 2010

OK--I hid the pregnancy with DS until probably 16-18 wks...yes, I was uncomfortable and seemed to pop right after I got in to maternity pants--but this time around I know it's not in my head. I'm seriously showing at nearly 12 wks. Started around a week or so ago---and by night time....yikes....I look like I'm 6 mos pregnant.

This is norm right??? When did you show?? I feel like I'm huge! I'm so ready to get in to my pregnancy pants. I think I'm going to tell my boss today. We've heard the heartbeat a couple times now and even found it on the doppler finally last night--so I'm feeling better than I did before about sharing. (even the in-laws don't even know yet! LOL)

I look 6 months. I never did lose all my pregnancy weight from Alex so I look fat but you can now in certain clothes see a bump forming. I feel huge!

I look now like I did at about 16/17 weeks with ds. Definitely sporting a round bump!

I'm only 10.5 weeks and I'm already showing, it started last week and came about fast.....

I am really not showing at all yet. Still wearing my normal jeans. I expected to be larger by now but nope. I was concerned until I heard the HB yesterday and everything is good. No morning sickness either. Don't hate me, I am just lucky this time.

this. i had to switch to maternity pants a week ago. i dont know if it's because i had DD 18 months ago and i hadnt gotten my abs back into shape so they are a little flaccid... but when i lay down i have a little hard bump that i dont remember having with DD around this time. there is no hiding the fact that i am pregnant. i just got a call from a neighbor/friend of mine that i was looking forward to telling next week or so and one of our other neighbors saw me out with DD and straight up asked me if i was pregnant and took it upon herself to tell everyone, including my friend.

I was told by two people today (one knew I was pregnant, the other did not) that I am not hiding anything! Yep, I have a bump.

Your bump is seriously adorable!

OP, I've lost 50lbs since having DS and I'm not showing yet. Just bloated and pudgy.

I'm only 9 weeks but I'm a lot more bloated than I was last time around. I took belly pics last time and I plan to do them this time as well. I think it will be crazy to see the difference between preg #1 and #2.

ckolak:-) · October 2010

Yeah, definitely normal. I didn't need maternity pants with DS til 16 weeks. I've been wearing them for at least a week with this one. Plus I've had a definite bump (albeit bloat) since about 8 weeks. Oy. However, the size of my bump hasn't really changed much, so that's comforting.

MidwestTexan · October 2010

I started out smaller with this pregnancy than with DS by just a pound or two, but I'm already starting to show (we've been taking bump pics since 5 weeks) yet I wasn't even showing until almost 20 weeks with DS. Crazy!

I still had an extra pooch left over from #1, so I was chunky but looked way worse at night early on.

Just now am I starting to look pg in the morning too. The pooch is no longer squishy.

I am ABSOLUTELY showing at 12 weeks. And I know what showing is because I've been pg before. LOL. I had to tell my work last week and am in maternity pants. I'm really small framed so it shows super early on me.
