When did you start to show with your 3rd pregnancy? I'm 5 weeks 2 days and while I know it's bloat I feel like I'm 3 month already

    Yep!  I had people asking if I was pregnant with twins at 5 weeks.  Nope that's just my dinner.  I am pregnant with #4 and the same thing.

    @618mom22boys wow #4? Was it a big adjustment when you went from 2 to 3?

    I'm pregnant with #4. With all my babies I started noticing a difference by 8 weeks, friends could tell a few weeks later, and strangers could tell by about 14 weeks.

    @madmyluv  It was probably the same as most going from 1 to 2 since my 1st is 8 and 10 years older and more independent.   The hardest for me was having them so close together.  They are only 28 months apart.   Any time I would do anything with DS3 DS2 thought it was time to get into everything.

    @618mom22boys Ahhhhh ok. So the closer in age was more challenging?

    Very much so!!   DS2 couldn't do anything for himself where DS1 was very independent.   This time I think it will be easier as well since my boys will be 16, 8, and 6 when this baby is born.

    This is our third baby as well. I have no shame in saying that I'm wearing maternity pants at almost 8 weeks. I know it's bloat but my jeans are just not working anymore

    @madmyluv I love this blog post, and I've seen several similar ones. Motherhood is hard and joyous no matter how many little ones you have, and I have just as much respect for mom's of only children as I do for moms of a dozen. There's something difficult about any number of children (for example, I have no idea how I could accomplish anything if I had an only child who needed me to entertain her all day), but in the end we all have the same goals of raising awesome kids.

    I have three, but was only pregnant with two :) but I'm feeling like you are!! I am overweight, so I don't think anyone else can tell (I HOPE! LOL) but I feel bloated too. Some of my pants are already starting to fit different (they still fit, but I feel like I have to adjust more than normal). Eek!

    @bookworm982 thank you so much for sharing this blog post with me. I agree it's just as challenging no matter how many you have.
