February 2015 Moms

Question for 3rd time + moms...

If you started showing earlier with baby #2, #3, etc, did you eventually taper off and end up the same size?  I'm pregnant with our second now, and am wondering if I'm gonna get way bigger this time!  Tell me I don't have to be scared...

Baby #2 due 2/15/15!

Re: Question for 3rd time + moms...

  • I started showing earlier with baby #2, but in the end I wasn't any bigger than with our first. I actually may have been a little smaller because I had GD and didn't gain any weight for the last 10 weeks of my pregnancy.

  • Yeah, I started out bigger, but wasn't any bigger at the end. I did get more stretch marks, though.

  • I showed later with my second, gained less, and was smaller in the end. I carried completely different though. DD was high, and DS was low. I much preferred my second pregnancy and hope this one is more like it. :)
    Mommy to N (3), J (2), and C (10 months). LO4 is due in mid-September.
  • I think I showed earliest with my first but weight gain was about the same with the first two (only 2 lb difference). No weight gain so far with this one and not showing yet.

    I feel you on that. I'm nine weeks with baby #3 and look like a moose! I hope my belly growth rate slows down or I will be gigantic ! Which is quite terrifying
  • Baby #3 my feet are swollen and I look like an umpa loompa
  • Baby #3.  With #1, I started showing around 18 weeks.  With #2, my hips widened almost immediately and I had a true bump by about 12 weeks.  This time around, I look pregnant in my ass already.
