Hi All,
Haven't posted here in a very long time but found out a few weeks ago I'm expecting number 2. Just wondering when was the earliest ye started to show. I feel my trousers getting tighter already and I'm only 7 weeks tomorrow! Think i will have to root out the maternity wear from the attic soon

I was the same as you at that stage, none of my jeans fitted me for a long time but as far as I know it was all fluid, well in my case anyway, but I didn't really Start showing until around 18 weeks but at 25 weeks I'm smaller than I was at this stage with dd. I was more to the front with dd but I'm all around this time so that could be something got to do with it
Congradulations to you by the way and I wish you the very best of luck throughout your pregnancy

Firstly, Congrats.
I was def showing by 8 weeks on my 2nd, without a doubt so much so that we had to tell a few people by 9 and half weeks.
On my first pregnancy I cld have hid it till bout 18 wks if I wanted to.

i grew out of my own clothes very quickly this time, at around 7 weeks id say, on dd i was wearing my own clothes for longer.
but saying that, no one asked me if i was expecting til i was around 22 weeks so it was a long time til i had an obvious bump
