I'm not quite 6 weeks and I definitely have a little bump comparable to what my belly looked like at 8-10 weeks with my first pregnancy.
Am I abnormal or did you notice a pretty quick change in your body/belly too?

I got incredibly bloated right away! Haha but I'm 12 weeks now and there's an actual-can actually feel it-bump!
I didn't really show until around week 15 the first time.
yay for baby!!!

I had a belly / bloat super early too - I feel like as soon as I peed on a stick it popped out! I'm now 20 weeks and my clothes I wore when I was 9 months pregnant with #1 are already tight in the belly!
My doctor at my last appointment said your uterus is actually the same size, its just your ab muscles are weaker so don't contain it like they used it.

I think immediately. I got the bloat right away. I normally bloat before AF, but this was more than that and has not gone away. I'm only 5 weeks but I swear I look like I did at 10-12 weeks with my first.
@MrsTiger: i guessed that it's so much worse because I have no ab muscles this time... never did have time to get back into shape.

By 5 or 6 weeks I definitely felt it. Without a doubt I showed earlier with #2.
@Ms.Badger: Huge congrats! So thrilled for you!

I agree with @ms.badger, I swear I bloated almost immediately - at least by 5 weeks - and not just toward the bottom but literally my whole stomach. Given, I am carrying twins but I am 9 weeks today and look as if I'm at least 14.

As I was waiting for the second line to show up on the test! Haha just kidding, but I seriously had a little bump right away with baby 2. I didn't end up getting any bigger than with my first, but just showed much earlier.

Like right away! Couldn't wear normal pants after 6 wks. I know a lot of it was bloat but by 10 weeks I looked 20 wks pregnant :).

@Ms.Badger: oh my goodness! Congrats!
I'm already noticing changes at 7 weeks. Last time people started noticing around 17 weeks for me, bu I think it'll be a lot sooner this time.

I had some pants that didn't fit right away, but that was due to the constipation lol.

Yes I started showing very early with the second too. By 5-6 weeks there was no denying it.
