Yeahh I started showing from 11 weeks and felt baby move at 14 weeks. I'm 32 weeks now and people mistake me for right about to drop and I have to tell them I still have 8 weeks to go and they look at me horrified 😂 x

They say if you’ve already had a baby previously that you can show earlier / feel the kicks and things earlier I guess it just depends on the woman’s body

I was so much bigger, so much quicker the second time. It seems to be normal.

Yup I’m massive! I’m now 31 + 1 and still massive! Being sent for a growth scan on Monday as measuring too big 🙄 at this rate I’m going to be pushing out a toddler 🤣

Avatar

As soon as I found out I immediately started showing I’ve now been the same size since I’ve found out but I look about 6 to 7 months when I’m only 4

Thank you for all the comments, I feel more normal now 😊

14 weeks today and I’m the same size I was at 24 weeks already, not easy to hide!

I definitely got a bump quicker with my second and third babies but by 35 weeks ish my bumps were all a similar size and my babies were all a similar size too! x

Avatar

So odd cause my second pregnancy before I lost never got a bump my third pregnancy I’ll be 13 weeks this Sunday no bump at all

Me too/ I’m huge!

Each baby you'll get bigger usually.

Wow😍😍😍 I’m 14 weeks still with a flat stomach I guess it’s because it’s my first but that bump is cute 😍😍🥰

Avatar

I’m 20 weeks with my second and I’m starting to show as well. I had a 6 pack stomach the first 5 months with my first baby.

Avatar

I thought I was showing at 10 wk with #2 but really popped by 13. Weaker abdominal muscles, sigh...

Avatar

I’m in baby 3 and I’ve had a bump from 6 weeks! I’m now 19 weeks and massive! Same with my second! First time I didn’t get a bump until about 22 weeks!

Avatar

I was huge with my second too! At around 18 weeks I was the size of my first at full term xx

Avatar

I started showing at 9 weeks like I was 12-14 weeks lol. I have heard from a lot of people that you will start showing earlier on with the more kids you have, but the growth will start to balance out in the second trimester.

Avatar

Your uterus the second time around is like let’s do this. You will start to show faster. At 8 weeks I was showing with my second

Avatar

Well I never started showing with none of my pregnancies early not even this one

Avatar

Not personally but I know someone who would get big early and then just stay the same size throughout. All growth scans were fine etc so you aren't alone in it!

Avatar

It is normal to get bigger with the more pregnancy’s you have your stomach muscles already know what to do so you show sooner

Avatar

I’m huge compared to my first pregnancy also (I have a petite frame but still much larger and showed waaaay earlier than my first)

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
