I kinda poped out around 16-18 weeks with Sophie, but had a small bump before that. This time we didn't get round to telling people and from about 19 weeks on people were looking at me sideways and starting to ask. By 21 weeks it went without saying.
With Sophie I couldn't wait to start showing, but don't worry it will happen soon enough, though I think I was proberbly about 22-24 weeks by the time I stopped asking Kerry if I looked pregnant or just looked fat.

Yeah you seem to go thru a stage of just looking fat first - well I did anyway! I think I started showing around 20 weeks. I remember thinking I cant wait to get big and preggy looking but you are like that for a looooong time and now cant wait to get back to normal!

I remember feeling a bump from about 12 weeks and then I popped out at about 18-19 weeks. It kind of happened overnight for me.
My question is do you pop out sooner with baby number 2? I can already feel my tummy has gone kind of hard but not a bump yet.....I am only 6 weeks though so its probably all in my head :-p

It's proberbly bloating. I had to go up a size in clothes from about 8 weeks this time, and then didn't seem to get any bigger for ages - just spent a couple of months feeling fat.

With my first i think i was around the 20 week mark with the twins it was abit earlier but not much then by about 25 weeks i was really showing. Make the most of not having a tummy because in no time you will be showing and you will get more and more uncomfortable by the day. Well thats what i felt like when i was pregnant with the twins, can't really remember whats its like to be pregnant with one baby.

he he, i took forever to show with Paris but you all saw my tummy pics with Ayja, at 18 weeks i was pretty alright sized.... lol then it kinda just plained off a bit. i do remember feeling like i popped out quicker this time, i think it's cos everything's already stretched so you have more room to grow.

I think at around 20 weeks I started to show with Han. By 23 weeks it was definitely not able to be passed off as a beer belly.

Just eat healthy while you are pregnant Lissel, and you'll find it much easier after you have the baby. In my first pregnancy, my doctor put me on a diet due to high blood pressure. It was honestly the healthiest I've ever eaten and I lost about 10kg from that. I wouldn't recommened trying to lose weight while pregnant, but you can make sure that you eat healthy, better for you and the baby!

Janine... I know... eek... Almost a year old! Crazy to think I was big and preggo this time last year though. How times have changed! haha I still miss the belly.
Roksana... I can't believe how fast your pregnancy has gone! (well... for me. I can only imagine it has gone fast for you too?) 3 weeks! It's exciting!
Lissel... follow your hunger. Being pregnant I'm sure I was hungry allll the time. Meant that I definitely ate enough for the babe and myself! And a good way to lose baby weight is to breastfeed. I've been feeding for almost 12 months and I'm thinner than when I first got pregnant! (mind you, that isn't that hard considering I put on a lot of weight in first year at uni. damn beer and hall food.  )
