I'm petite and showed early with my first by 13ish weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237596 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 15:12:47 +0000 NeekieRose 2237596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hid it from work until 22 weeks with DD2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237585 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 15:00:42 +0000 ladybee 2237585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: lol this is so me. Nothing not hold the belly back since I put zero effort into my abs after LO1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237573 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 14:53:35 +0000 autumnlove 2237573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it was around 8-10 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237556 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 14:42:53 +0000 Ree723 2237556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really late again - with LO1, I started getting questionable looks around 24-25 weeks, and looked definitively pregnant around 28 weeks. With LO2, I started getting questionable looks around 20 weeks and looked pregnant at about 24 weeks. I'm tall and thin but I have a very short torso so I don't know where my babies were hiding!</p> <p>Congrats on baby #2! </p> <p>ETA: a picture at 20 weeks with baby #2 - I may be the anomaly but it's not always a given you'll show super early second time around :-) </p> [attach=1312/15/nrjoly.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237534 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 14:26:38 +0000 Trailmix 2237534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice re: #2 but CONGRATS!!!! So very exciting :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237526 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 14:15:37 +0000 JoJoGirl 2237526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BKCaribBaby: @Adira: @hellobeeboston: @kjpugs: Thanks guys! Still a bit freaked out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237486 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:53:17 +0000 BKCaribBaby 2237486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: Just wanted to say congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237431 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:26:06 +0000 Adira 2237431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started showing immediately and was called out at work at 8 weeks. :bummed: </p> <p>Also, CONGRATULATIONS!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237422 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:19:33 +0000 fancyfunction 2237422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely have a bloat bump - but it's mainly at night for now. I'm 7.5 weeks and trying to think of what to wear to a friend's bday dinner tomorrow so as not give it away ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237411 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:12:04 +0000 Foodnerd81 2237411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: I will say, it's not like my stomach was very tones to start with- there were no muscles holding that bloat back. But my very fit friend is also showing really early with her second and she has strong abs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237410 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:11:19 +0000 kjpugs 2237410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said 7, but that's just a guess at when I noticed since that's when I started pics. I think, haha. It was pretty obvious pretty quickly, at least to me! Definitely looking at pics it was more obvious than with LO1. Also- congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237404 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 13:08:09 +0000 hellobeeboston 2237404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: congrats!!! I started showing super early with my second (I'm 30 weeks now) I know I was in maternity pants much sooner, like, 11/12 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237351 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 12:28:10 +0000 JoJoGirl 2237351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohhh my goodddddd. I better go get some summer maternity pants, this is freaking me out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237342 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 12:19:34 +0000 Foodnerd81 2237342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No joke, I had to loosen a belt the day before I found out I was pregnant. I was sitting at dinner going, I don't know why I'm so bloated. And tired. Took a test the next morning. </p> <p>But someone asked my friend if I was pregnant by 8 weeks. I could hide it a little longer than that but in a tight shirt you could tell by then. And stuff got tight immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237276 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 11:41:16 +0000 birdofafeather 2237276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was in maternity pants at 7/8 weeks with the bloat with baby2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237273 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 11:40:15 +0000 mrsog 2237273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm about 5/6 weeks now and have on a kind of fitted dress and I asked my husband this morning if I looked prego or chubby and he said "well I don't think you would be showing yet".... I just sent him this thread bc I know I didn't get this bloated belly in the last 2 weeks from just eating! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237266 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 11:33:00 +0000 CRGmama 2237266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh boy.

Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237254 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 11:26:48 +0000 Mamasig 2237254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bloat hit around 5 weeks and I want to say I whipped out the maternity pants about 6 weeks. But I show early! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237210 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 11:02:21 +0000 sarac 2237210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My torso thickened almost immediately, like 7 or 8 weeks, and I couldn't wear my tightest leggings any more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237190 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:43:28 +0000 Corduroy 2237190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With LO1&amp;2 my butt grew a ton in week 5. I was in bigger pants by week 7. I wasn't showing until 5 months for LO2. It was 6 months for LO1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237186 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:41:31 +0000 blackbird 2237186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was in maternity by 8 weeks. I was asked at the gym if I was having twins at 9 weeks :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237135 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:19:43 +0000 NovBaby1112 2237135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Early!! I think around 8 weeks I noticed a bump/bloat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237130 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:17:46 +0000 Alivoo01 2237130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bloat was crazy at 8 weeks and I felt more comfortable wearing maternity pants because the hair tie/rubber band trick wasn't even working anymore. The gaping hole was embarrassing if my shirt rode up a little bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237107 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:07:35 +0000 lovehoneybee 2237107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like 8-9 weeks, but could still be hidden. I've been in maternity pants pretty much since then...my jeans wouldn't button almost immediately. Some of my slacks will still button, but they are terribly uncomfortable by the end of the day :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237088 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:00:56 +0000 ladybee 2237088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here is a post I started <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-pregnancy-looking-pregnant-early#post-2220266" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-pregnancy-looking-pregnant-early#post-2220266</a></p> <p>At 6 weeks I noticed a bump but people weren't noticing or asking. At 8 weeks people started noticing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237082 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 09:54:41 +0000 travellingbee 2237082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well it felt like almost immediately but other people noticed at around 8 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-showing-with-2#post-2237079 Wed, 15 Jul 2015 09:53:08 +0000 JoJoGirl 2237079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 5w today and bloated already.. how is that possible?! I didn't start wearing maternity pants until 22w with my first :shocked: </p>
