Just like the title says....
How soon did your bump show when you were/are pregnant with your second baby?
I carried pretty well the first time, but heard the second time you show much sooner. Did you??

Definitely by 18 weeks. With my 1st LO it was more like 23-24 weeks.

I noticed around 6-8. Others noticed at 12! It was summer and I wasn't trying to hide it, I gained less weight for #2.

First time, I was showing around 16 weeks. Now I FEEL like I'm showing at 8 weeks, but I think that might just be some baby weight I never lost plus bloating!

@oliviaoblivia: This makes me feel better about me!!! Hubs was basically calling me fat yesterday and I was trying to tell him it's because of the second pregnancy and he didn't believe me (although I AM overweight, so that's not really helping my cause, haha).

I'm the Anamoly. My bump is smaller and showing later than with my first.
Baby is on track.

Much sooner. I think I started wearing maternity clothing around 8 weeks and had people asking me way before I was ready to make the announcement.

@Adira: Travelgirl1 looked at me yesterday and was like "I can totally tell you're pregnant".
I think my leftover baby fluffiness accentuates my early bump. I showed really early last time too. Strangers flat out asked about my pregnancy at 14/15 weeks.

@oliviaoblivia: Yes, same boat! I have the leftover pooch from my last pregnancy, so my starting point is my previous 12-16 weeks! So now it just looks obvious.

Yikes! I am not ready to start showing! I am just getting used to the idea of being pregnant again!! I didn't show until 20 weeks last time- so maybe I have a little more time before a bump comes out. (although my stomach is far from flat- so I think its easier for me to hide it!)

@Adira: ummm did you hit him?
Second time I started noticing around 12 weeks but I think it popped out and became noticeable at 14.

@cyndistar3: haha, no, he was teasing. We're both mean to each other - it's our form of affection.

@Adira: haha as much as we tease each other weight is so off limits here. I would beat the crap out of him if he said anything about my size while I was carrying his child

@cyndistar3: haha, I used to be insecure about my weight, but I'm totally not anymore! I think all his teasing has made me feel MORE secure because I know he love love loves me despite all my curves, so the teasing doesn't bother me one iota!

When I was just 10 weeks and a patient's Mom asked me how far along I was ... I was wearing SCRUBS.
