For your second pregnancy, or more, did you pop early?! I'm almost 8 weeks and I look pregnant. Normal, right?

I started showing around 9wks. I'm 14wks now and I think I look like I did around 5 months last time...

Normal! I got called out at 8 weeks at while. Very frustrating when you are trying to hide it until 12-13 weeks!

My first ultrasound isn't until 8 wks and I was hoping to hide it til then. But I'm guessing maybe I won't be able to

@ladybee: I think that's normal! And a cute bump. With my first it wasn't an obvious bump for a long time. I'm looking forward to an obvious I'm pregnant bump next time around!

I showed so early. But I could hide it with loose shirts and just look like I was gaining weight- which I don't think was really better. At 12 weeks I was finally ready to wear tighter shirts and proclaim I was pregnant not fat.

@ladybee: I had a really rough first tri with my second - subchorionic hemmorage and a slow heartbeat so I REALLY didn't want to talk about it at all with anyone, especially at work, but I looked so comically pregnant by 12 weeks that everyone knew anyway, lol.

Definitely earlier, a little hint of bump at 8w despite weight loss. It wasn't noticeable to anyone besides me and DH but I totally think this is normal!

@2littlepumpkins: I've lost weight too. I was diagnosed at 6 weeks with GD so I've been on a diet for sugar control.

I started showing earlier, but my bump overall is smaller now than my first pregnancy (36w). I've gained less weight and started off less so it makes sense. The bloat never died down though once it started around 8/9 weeks this time.

I definitely showed earlier. It levelled off around 18 weeks.
With #3 being so close to #2 I was really annoyed to be five months pp and still looking pregnant. Jokes on me.

Normal! I think it evened out around 24 weeks for me. Congrats!

I actually didn't start showing until about 17 weeks with both babies, but I got MUCH bigger much faster after that with my 2nd. But totally normal!

Totally! I didn't show until 24 weeks with my first. I showed immediately with my second!

I am ten weeks pregnant and started showing majorly last week. It is horrifying! I am constantly trying to dodge my co-workers.

I didn't start showing until the second trimester, but my waist got thicker almost immediately this time.

I was super visibly pregnant by/before 6 weeks...no bloat, a true baby bump!

Normal! I was visibly pregnant looking 5-6 weeks earlier with LO2!

I started bloating right away and thought I'd be bigger much faster, but at 14 weeks now, I am hardly showing and showing less than with my first pregnancy. I think it's because I did more ab work before getting pregnant the second time than with the first. Right now my stomach area just looks out of shape and squishy but mainly flat with no real round bump. I wish I had a bump! I just look out of shape, and I hear it evens out later on anyway. Your bump is so cute, I'm jealous.

I popped nearly the second I was pregnant but I also had two in there.
