Any one else got any good comparison pics? I thought it might help the FTM?s get a better idea of how different it can be when showing a bump the second, third or fourth time round
Here?s me last yr at 34 weeks
and this was my HDBD pic at 17 weeks

Thank you for posting this! I'm a STM and I feel sooooo much larger this time at almost 18 weeks. I don't think I really started to show at all until 20-22 weeks with #1, and I already feel huge with this one.

Thanks so much! I'm a FTM and a little self-conscious b/c my bump is almost the same size. It just popped over the last two weeks. I haven't gained anywhere else and haven't been eating like a cow. So it must be all baby. and ps- you look great!
I'll play but I'm not that dramatic yet.
17 weeks now:
I think I look more like 20 weeks last time:
Wow! Funny how some people really pop earlier.
I look about the same so far:
Me at 16w3d with DD
And this I just took for this message--today I think I'm 16w5d
ETA: And I'm still not fitting into maternity shirts though I've got enough fluff around the middle that the pants are sort of fitting. I still fit into my regular jeans, but they are horrendously uncomfortable so I'm in maternity pants completely. The shirts still just look like tents on me though!
Also, you look great!

Thanks moosegal!
I wish!! but like most FTMs I didnt have a bump until I was about 22 weeks. That was when I took my very first bump pic. Ive got one at 20 weeks and I look so self conscious LOL. it?s taken from the front tho and I just look like a squishy pink marshmallow
Here it is
Yup - I?d say you look pretty much the same! Looking great as a STM aswell - cldnt tell you are already a mum
You look almost exactly the same too!!! How cool is that?
I?m only just in maternity jeans, but the boobage seems to have a life of it?s own so Im already far bigger than I think I prolly ever was with DS. Tis crazy tho as I?m still weighing the same??? Just dont get it .
Yup - I?d say you are showing more this time round. What do you think? And as for the stretch marks...maybe I need better glasses
Looks like you are definitely showing more this time around! And I love your tatto (removed the PIP because I don't want the post to explode-haha). I also don't see many stretch marks. You still look great.
101Mims: I weigh about the same as well, actually a little less than pre-pregnancy weight with DD (I attribute this to BFing up until a few weeks ago) but my middle is much larger than my butt/thigh area. Sadly, the boobage is not out of control over here. I think they shrank back to original size and now they sag. Yayyyy.
16 weeks baby #1
16 weeks (according to my u/s...today)
I don't think there's much of difference
Hahaha!! Now Im feeling the odd one out
I?d agree - you also look pretty much the same.
Don't worry, you aren't the odd one out. This is my 3rd (and my youngest is only 15 mos old right now) so I am HUGE this time around, vs my 2nd pregnancy. I don't really compare my 1st because it was 7 years prior to the 2nd. Let me dig up some pics...
2nd pregnancy 12 weeks:
3rd pregnancy 12 weeks:
Oh phew!!! Makes me feel a bit better LOL!!
No problem. I get the 'are you sure there's not two in there?!' all the time. I don't let it bother me. I know I am just fine, my body knows what it's doing. I haven't gained barely any weight, so I am not concerned. Maybe I should just start telling people it's triplets!? haha
