    Just curious really! For baby number 2 how many weeks were you when you started to show and how was this in comparison to your first pregnancy?

    Much sooner than first, only a 6 month gap and my abdominal separation from number one hadn't fully mended yet.

    First pregnancy I didn't start showing until around 30 weeks. This time I was beginning to look pregnant from about 16 weeks.

    First preganacy i didnt start showing until 26/27 weeks

    This time i started showing at about 16/17 weeks. Started showing, i noticed it and so did the OH but i could of got away with hiding it until about 21weeks if we wanted to.

    My little girl will be 3 in Nov, this one due 01/01/13. So three year gap in the pregnancies...

    I told people at 20 weeks on my 1st that I was pregnant and only a few noticed.
    On my 2nd you could obviously tell by 12 weeks and was in materniy clothes a few weeks by then.

    1st 15 weeks ( i was a size 8) 2nd 12 weeks (size 12), 3rd 8 weeks (size 12). gp thought it was twins each time as my uterus was large (5 weeks more advanced than it should have been) , at 15 weeks my uterus was up at my navel, that normally happens at 20 weeks.

    Sometimes ive noticed if a woman is large its harder to tell she is pregnant.


    With the 3rd I had to tell work at 8 weeks as i was visably pregnant they told me they already guessed i was so they must have been talking about it between themselves...
