    I was in maternity pants by 7 weeks this time, but it slowed down quickly and by 2nd trimester I was pretty much on track with my first pregnancy.

    My tummy was very big with this pregnancy right from the start, i thought i would show early being my 5th preg but this was ridiculous!!! Turns out i was just bloated and constipated from the pregnancy vitamin tablets i was taking. Once i stopped them my tummy went back to normal, yay!!

    GL with everything

    I'm huge too! I guess our tummy muscles aren't as strong as they were before bubby no#1 too so it all kind of shows! Mine sticks out but it still realy soft so I can't wait to have my firm baby belly again!
    Good luck!

    I totally agree with what most have said here lol. I showed nearly straight away this time and have found that I have done it with all but my first pregnancies! So much for hiding it and keeping secrets hey lol.

    I used to be big for ages then in the 3rd trimester things evened out and I had an average sized bub each time. This time round I already look like Im about 6 months pg! and Im only 12wks hehe. But all is good, I dont mind being larger for a good reason.

    Good luck with it all anyway and congrats that you are already having #2

    I wouldn't have thought it was possible to show at 8 weeks - you sure it isn't bloating? I know many women have bloating the first two months and then it pops back in for a month or two.

    I'm coming up 26 weeks and there are still a number of people at work who haven't noticed I'm pregnant even though I though I thought I looked pregnant months ago (obviously I didn't).
