2nd time moms

LindseyLooMagoo · August 2016

I am 6 weeks along with baby #2 and I am just curious to all the 2nd or 3rd time moms as to how early they started showing with the 2nd baby. I don't really remember when I started showing with #1 since it was 3.5 yrs ago but I think it was around 6 months. I know they say after the first baby you start showing sooner

You won't show until after 10 weeks for sure, likely around 13-15 but it's easily shown with bloat.... Oh god awful bloat

I'm just 7 weeks along but I'm already uncomfortable in my pants. I definitely have some bloat going on!!

I had horrible bloat up until about 10weekish. Then it went away, and now it's becoming baby bump. I actually just noticed my belly button is starting to look stretched out which is fascinating to my DS.

I'm about 7 weeks and have had to wear my bigger sizes capris. Not necessarily showing (unless you look at me after a meal :-p) yes.

I started to show around 6.5 months with my first. With my second I started to show around 13 weeks and now with my third I started to show at 10 weeks.

The bloat has me looking like five months rather than five weeks. I've already busted out the maternity pants and big shirts to hide it.

Same. The bloat is UNREAL this time around. With DS I didn't look remotely pregnant until I was 6 months in.

I'm very bloated now, too. Today is the hair-tie-trick-to-expand-the-pants kind of day. I'm short, so I think I started showing with my first pregnancy around 4-5 months. Right now, I just look like I've eaten too many chips and salsa.

I got super bloated with #2 really early on but then it went away and I showed a few months later. With #3 I showed later than with the first two.

I got really bloated really quickly with both #1 and #2. I'm working out now more than I did with either of those pregnancies, and I feel like I have days where I am really bloated, but it comes and goes now. That being said, I'm definitely already into the hair elastic trick to extend my waistbands on pants!
