It'll be my third pregnancy, but hopefully just Baby #4 (last pregnancy was twins).

This will be our 3rd and hoping for our 3rd BOY! Everyone thinks I'm nuts but it won't be so bad seeing how the 2nd two will be almost 5 years apart.

Ok, someone in the fourths needs to be having twins and come back and add a "and fifth" vote.

So Happy...Are you guys showing sooner?

I knew I was pregnant this time right away, I could just feel it. I wonder though, my belly is getting pretty poochy already and I'm only 5 weeks. This is just bloating or something, right? There's no way I could be starting to show this soon! My last pregancy was wonderful, but I gained way too much weight. My son weighed over 9 pounds. Any thoughts?

Woohoo, Keri! It was fate, I tell ya!

Carrie - Over 9lbs doesn't sound that big to me, although it does to OBs. I really believe that if you eat well, move to comfort, and are generally healthy, then your body will gain the amount it needs to gain, and your baby will come out weighing what s/he needs to weigh!

My belly is getting pretty poochy already too. ("Poochy" is such a nice way to put it. Rather than I'm already FAT and now I look FATTER. ) I've only been in maternity tops for a few days now. I need to go shopping.

Y'know what? If you're showing already, y'probably ain't fat. On those of us who actually ARE fat, it's like, "five extra pounds? Water bloat? Where?" Just blends in.

'Course, it probably helps that I haven't been able to afford to buy new pants for ages, and the ones I have are about two sizes too big, and fall off without a belt. And the belt I have is analog, that is, doesn't have preset holes, so I have no way of really measuring if my belly has gotten any bigger.

My breasts, now! I'm sure there's some weight gain there!

I have lots of extra fluff-n-stuff, but have noticed that my jeans are a bit tight, and that my tighter skirts are leaving red marks. Its just crazy to feel like this so soon.

With my DD my bra was too tight at 3 weeks, my jeans wouldnt button right at 7 weeks and I was into maternity clothes at 9 weeks, so I guess that I just show really quickly.

Its ok though. even though Im 100+ over what I "should" weigh (I wear an 18-20), I looked really pregnant really quick with DD and Im sure that it will be close to the same this time.

I like it- it makes me feel "more" pregnant.

I understand that women often show earlier in subsequent pregnancies. I'm on pregnancy #4, and definitely showing. I'm already wearing maternity clothes because everything else is just too tight now. This is a problem for me, since we're not announcing the pregnancy to anyone for another week, but we'll be seeing family on Saturday. I hope that my t-shirts are bulky enough that no one will notice. Or they'll be too embarrassed to ask if I'm pregnant, since only my brother knows we were trying.

This is our second baby, and third pregnancy. I had a very problematic ectopic pregnancy about 5 years ago.

This is my third pregnancy, but we'll have four kids in the household when it's over (I have a stepdaughter of whom we have joint custody). :
