    Showing earlier in 2nd pregnancy

    Hey There,

    I know there is a similar thread, but i wanted to ask a question as DP and I were talking earlier.

    Does your body forget it has had a baby? Seeing as there is almost a 10yr age gap between DD and bub2, do you think my body will remember what to do? Will I show earlier like I've been reading via google?

    This afternoon I have had an achy belly and no quite sure if its normal? I never had anything like this with DD (didnt know I was UTD til 8 weeks with DD) should i just put my feet up? My belly feels kinda bloated but more achy than anything - is this the muscles loosening up?

    I feel silly asking these questions ... but i kinda feel like this is my first bub and its not ...

    I have 5 years between, I don't remember having the sharp pains I get when i sneez or cough, I have popped out a bit earlier, I am 11 weeks now and didn't pop out at all till about 15 weeks with my first.

    I'm sure your body remembers, just like i'm sure my brain will click in about what to do with a newborn!!

    I'm now 8w & my DD is 20months. I have defenitly popped earlier this time, I'm already having to wear maternity clothes. I'm also getting lots of little pains which is normal while your uterus is stretching.

    I feel reassured now its a bit scary when you pay more attention to the changes your body has
