Hi All
I have four kids under 12 and
I am pregnant with baby no 5 and due in july. I am only nine weeks pregnant but I cant believe how much i am showing (i look about 4 mths) and I starting showing at 6 wks. Has this happen to anyone else or is it because its the fifth baby. Have just started to feel that real heaviness in my thighs that seems to happen in pregnancy.
omg i am wearing maternity clothes already beached whale here i come ha

I was the same and it was my first pregnancy, I had to go out and buy maternity pants at around about 10 weeks because nothing would fit and the belly belt just wasn't working for me anymore (all my tops were getting too short and showing it). I wouldn't worry too much, it just makes it hard to keep it quiet till the 12 week mark.
I'll be 9 weeks tomorrow with my first baby and I think I'm already showing too. I had bloating for quite a while but that seems to have died down.
I just wear the one pair of jeans now (they are the only one's that fit!) and pj pants :)
I'm preggers with number 3 and I was definately popped by 11 weeks this time so on your 5th i'd say thats probabaly right!!!
ENJOY it pregnanacy is such a gift and showing sooner means people will fuss you longer !!:dance:
I'm 15 weeks pregnant with number 2 & I look about 6 months, not almost 4!!
I've been showing from very early on - I think some bodies are just that way inclined ;)
I can tell you I don't look like the ladies in my pregnancy books at 15 weeks :rofl:
I showed a lot earlier with this one and I'm only on number 2.... I think if we have anymore I'll be HUGE by half way, I think I'm huge already now! :lol:
I showed earlier with my second DD than my first too. I felt like a whale by 10 weeks but no one else seemed to notice! But I didn't end up as big at the end of the pregnancy as I was first time around either :)
I'm 6 weeks and had two people at playgroup (that know I'm pregnant) mention it, I thought it was all in my head! That said, with my second pregnancy I was definitely showing by 8 weeks. Lucky I don't try to keep it a secret until 12 weeks :lol:
I was showing really early with this bub. I feel huge and i'm only 16 weeks!
I couldn't do up my pants at 5 weeks & just got bigger from there!!
In maternity clothes by 10 weeks - no joke.
im nearly 7 weeks and im 'rounded' already around the middle.... So yep i have cracked out maternity clothes too.... And im on bubs #5
I'm pg with bub 1, currently about 13weeks, but by 6weeks I couldn't fit into my jeans anymore... I only have a couple of pair of pants that fit me, so will be looking at maternity REALLY soon! People have commented the last 1-2weeks that i'm 'showing' but i'm guessing around 12weeks would be fairly 'normal'?? but i've kinda felt like I was showing from about 4weeks ago...
Me too, on all fronts (including the big wide front on my front! lol)!:
All the 15-wek ladies in my books look lke they ate a big lunch. I look like i ate another 15 week pregnant lady....

I am 9 weeks pregnant now with my first baby and i have popped out to the point where you can see that something has changed. I had become very paranoid as most women i kn0w didnt show till later stages, although i am maintaining a healthy eating habit, i am not using the eating for two excuse, as i would like to try and regain a normal body asap after giving birth, fingers crossed anyway.
I am glad im not alone! I feel crazy but i have already popped! I noticed it today and showed DF to see if i was crazy but he almost fell over....
Think i will start taking pics because you wouldn't believe if you didn't see it!!
Oh and im on #3!
Hahahahahahhaha B :lol::
Can't wait to start showing, I'm at 8 and a half weeks and I'm not showing in the slightest, I'm guessing I'll pop around 13 weeks. I've heard that people try to touch your belly all of the time when you start to show. Does this really happen? If so I might need to set some ground rules :o
ROFLMAO!!! Thats so funny...and so so true!!!:goodone::
Im 6 weeks with no 4 and I am well and truly popping out already...DH said its probably just gas!!!
I have "popped" too and I am just 8 weeks tomorrow! I look so much further along than that!
Oh I am so glad to have found this thread!
I am 12 weeks tomorrow but I started showing at about 9 weeks like literally looking 4 months pregnant?? I was getting worried as when I was preg with DD I only started showing at 4 1/2 months. So good to know there are others out here experiencing the same thing! Good luck to you all with your pregnancies :)
Oooh I'm the same - and was with my last PG too! Drives me nuts. Was in mat pants at 8 weeks last time, 6 weeks this time. All my mates who are PG say "oh yes, I showed early too" and I'm like... nuh, not like this! It's insane and makes keeping it quiet till 12 weeks an absolute joke.
With my first PG (you know, the one where you're not supposed to show early :wall:) and 7.5 weeks a taxi driver commented that I was 6 months pregnant :doh:!
And :rofl: at the lady who's eaten another pregnant lady - hilarious. Next time someone says to me are you carrying twins, i'm gonna say yup, one's human and the other one is chocolate!
im certainly glad to see so many of you ladys started showing early
i will be 12 weeks on the 20th Feb, this will be my 4th baby, and when i stand straight....i cant see my toes :o
i wanted to wait until i was over the 3mths before i told anyone family, friends and work but i cant. They all saw it about a month ago.
I've been concerned that i might have more then a baby growing inside me so im going to the doctor tomorrow to get checked out... i feel a little more confident that this could be normal. :redface:
OMG! I'm sooooo glad I found this thread! I'm almost 11 weeks and have had a big belly since about 7-8 weeks! I'm a big girl, and thought I had just put on a bit too much weight, but my weight has actually dropped! I'm already getting back aches and all, and I have 6 months to go! Oh boy! ha ha ha
