November 2016 Moms

Those who have had more than one....

When did you start 'showing' with the second pregnancy? This will be my second, and I feel huge already. I had to do the trick with the hair band on my pants today. I'm sure I'm just fat....but it would be good to know!

    I had a definite bump-shaped bloat by 13w with kid 2. I'll be 10w tomorrow with #3 and I am so bloated I look like I'm showing and it's so much worse by the end of the day (and I am 8lbs below my prepregnancy weight right nod so it's not weight gain!) I am pretty sure I'll be clearly pregnant looking by 15w.

    Girl, this is my second and I've already busted out my maternity pants. I know it's mostly bloat but the belly band and hair band were getting too uncomfortable. Embrace it ;)

    With my second I was in maternity clothes by 10 weeks and clearly pregnant by 13 and I gained less weight with my second than my first. This is my third and I'm in maternity clothes (10 weeks if you're on mobile) and have a bump I can't suck in. I haven't gained any yet.

  • My first 2 were so close I never actually got out of maternity clothes. This is my 3rd (10 weeks tomorrow) I moved from my size 2 jeans to size 4 and holding strong. I have a feeling this won't last very long. 
  • With my first I lasted much longer in my regular clothes than I am now. I'm 10 weeks and already had to get new maternity clothes (old ones are too small or can't find the rest). I lost a few pounds but definitely have a small bump that everyone is pointing out all of a sudden. Can't hide any more I guess! 
  • I'm on pregnancy #4 that made it past 7 weeks. Third pregnancy in a 18 month period (other two were late trimester losses) my uterus is all sorts of confused and I look almost 20 weeks pregnant by the end of the day. I'm having twins, so im a little larger than I would be with a singleton. Ive been rocking yoga pants for at least a week, but they are starting to roll down under my stomach- super sexy. I'm down 12lbs from pre-pregnancy weight, so it's not weight gain. I'll be busting out the maternity closes really soon!

  • With #2 I was visibly pregnant by 14 weeks- possibly earlier but I remember someone noticing from the other side of the street at 14 weeks. Now, with #3, I've thickened around the middle already and I'm 8 weeks. I'm assuming by 10 weeks, people will start to know I'm pregnant.

  • Last pregnancy I was well into the third trimester before I really started feeling bigger at all. I had HG and actually lost weight all the way up until about 1 month before he was born. 

    This time around I haven't gained any but I feel huge. Serious ridiculous bloat. I seriously wanna go maternity clothes shopping already. 

    It's only fair to state by the way that I'm quite large to start with. I'm sure that people who are at a healthier weight to start with probably feel larger a lot earlier on. 

      

  • With my first I thought I looked preggo (tiny cute little belly) at the end of the first tri. Really in retrospect I did not but I had always had a super flat tummy and by the end of the first tri it was not super flat anymore. NOw round 2 I'm mentally struggling a little remember if I was fat looking before I got pregnant. I keep thinking I must have been b/c how could I already have a belly at 9 wks if I wasn't :-( anyway, I was "thicker" and weighed more coming into this pregnancy. My tummy wasn't flat to start with, I didn't think I looked fat but as I said, now I'm questioning that, lol. Anyway, the point is, I'm not "showing" but I am so paranoid that ppl can see a bump it seriously feels so obvious. But I'm hoping ppl with think I've given up on getting my prepregnancy (pregnancy 1) body back and I'm just gaining some weight. However, my best friend (who knows) asked me on Saturday "is that a baby bump I'm seeing already" I assured her it was just fat, so yeah... that helped my confidence, lol.

    I bumped out at 12/13 weeks last time. I ended up having a 9lb 6oz kid though and I was quite flat tummied then (sob) but this time, I already have that awesome tiny curve in my lower abdomen that now in week 9 isn't going away in the morning. it's enough to where my regular bottoms aren't comfortable anymore so I just wear maternity leggings/dresses/mat shorts.

    You can't tell if you aren't my husband though. 
  • This is my third, I am 11 weeks and I am not showing. I think people started noticing at around 24 weeks with my first, and 15 weeks with my second. I am looking for a new job so I am hoping to hide the bump/ bloat for as long as possible lol.

  • I'm 11 weeks and definitely bloated, but my tummy never went 100% back to normal after my DD either.

  • I'm 9 weeks with my 4th, and have been solidly in maternity bottoms for the last two weeks. I know with my third I had an obvious but tiny bump by 12-13 weeks. 
  • 11 weeks and lots of hard bloat. Someone made a comment at a bachelorette party the other weekend that they thought I might be pregnant because it looked like I had a bump... Bitch! 
  • I'm 11 weeks today with my 2nd pregnancy and I can still (uncomfortably) suck it in but when I let it all hang out, I definitely have a decent bump. I've been wearing leggings, yoga pants, and maxi skirts. My jeans still fit but they literally split my bump into a top and bottom bump when I button them (super flattering). With my first I don't remember showing until like 17-18 weeks?

  • With my first, I didn't start showing a bump til 20ish weeks. Otherwise it just looked like I gained 5lbs. I'm 9w2d with #2 and not showing.  In the afternoon I definitely feel bloated but it doesn't resemble a bump yet, just looks like I just ate.
