I am only about 6 weeks pregnant with my second baby, have gained six lbs already, and I cannot keep this belly in! Yes, some of it is flab, but in the last couple days TWO people have asked me if I'm pregnant! My husband just told one of his friends about our pregnancy on the phone and he asked if he should not tell people, and my husband said, well she's already showing, so it's not gonna be a secret! I actually have not been trying to keep it a secret, but can't believe how my belly is sticking straight out in the front already! I starting showing pretty early with ds too, but this seems very early indeed! Am I the only one??

I'm amazed that I have a bump already. This too is only my second. With my dd, I didn't look get a bump like this till 4 months!

Definitely not the only one. However, more of the "showing" is really bowel distention and not truly baby (though it surely looks like baby). I am 10 wks now and the bloating has gone down quite a bit...I am not as big as I was a week or so ago. Still can't fit into my regular pants.

I was shopping in the maternity section at 8-ish weeks and this girl comes up to me asking if we know what we're having and all of this and that about pregnancy. LOL

I'm 10 weeks pregnant, and I look like I'm about 4 months along already!

 

[MsElle07]

Yep -- I am 8 weeks and look more like 16.

 

[tullyleague]

Oooooooooooh yes. The computer guy couldn't stop staring at my stomach as I was talking to him in the hallway.

 

[Bennifer]

yep, right at 6 weeks I popped out. I'm 8 weeks now and I was comparing current tummy to photos from my first pregnancy, and I looked like this at 16 weeks!!

Giselle, I didn't know you were pregnant! Congrats! My user name on TBW is turkeybat just in case you don't recognize my nickname here.

I'm ten weeks along right now and I think I may have a little bump but my clothes still fit me well. I'm also slowly losing weight because of this horid morning sixkness so I'm guessing that's why I'm not showing much yet.

I am 8 weeks with #5 and just this weekend seemed to pop just a bit, enough for me to go out and buy some maternity shorts knowing I won't be able to find them next month but it will still be 90+ degrees! I am wearing regular shorts today though, I still have a few that fit.

I don't have a "bump" yet, but at 9 1/2 weeks I can't button my shorts. This didn't happen until almost a month farther along with DD! Actually, I think I'd probably have a "bump" now, only my belly is still so flabby from DD that I think the "bump" gets kinda lost in the flab, KWIM? If I suck in the flab, there's definitely something there. It's not baby yet, just my guts being displaced I guess, but it's kind of exciting.

I was really hoping to make it through the summer in my own clothes, though. It'll be mid-October here before it starts to get chilly. Somehow I don't think I'll make it. The summer maternity stuff I had with DD is all really worn, and I don't want to have to buy two seasons' worth of stuff. Can't do the loose sweats thing with my clients, so I need at least two nice outfits I can wear to work. Guess I'll be shopping before another month is out, huh?

Glad to know I'm not the only one.

I am about 8 weeks and not showing yet. But I still haven't lost the weight from dd. So I guess it is going to take me a little longer. But I wear streachy clothes all the time. So I couldn't tell you if my pants fit or not. LOL

It is so nice to know that I am not alone. My neighbor who has a dd the same age as mine is so thin. She doesn't have stretch marks or flabby skin. I hate women like that. LOL

 

[baturay]

Hi Kristen! Yep, only 6 weeks along. Haven't announced in TBW yet though...waiting.

Saturday was the beginning of week 7 for me and I actually have lost a little of the bloat. Thankfully!! I was pretty shocked to see how my belly started sticking out at, like, 4 weeks, but it's gone down a little and I can actually sort of fit into my jeans. Whew!

 

[BrookeAD]

I am 8 weeks, and I had to get some new pants this weekend. I was miserable and couldn't take it anymore! I am not showing that much--just very low.

 

[PrinceE&LsMom]

YES! 8w 3 days here and it is crazy! All my capris are too tight (they were actually loose at the beginning of the summer) so I've been wearing this one drawstring sweat type I have and even my yoga pants are bugging me. I'm stressing because next Friday is our anniversary so my kids are spending the night at my dad's and I DON'T want him or my stepmom to know I'm pregnant!!! Last time I didn't bust out the maternity stuff till 20 weeks.
