About 5 minutes after I saw the second line on the little pee stick! LOL

But seriously, WAY sooner than with the first. With baby #1, I could still zip my skinny jeans at 24 weeks. (I am really tall though, so that helped.) With baby #2, I was in maternity clothes by 10 weeks, I'd say. Maybe sooner.

I felt like I was showing by 7 or 8 weeks, but I was still able to hide it fairly well and by 12 weeks there was no easy way to hide it.

So different from my first, where I was still in my normal clothes at 16 weeks.

As soon as I thought about getting pregnant again! : )
It did seem to happen pretty quickly, but I didn't get any bigger overall with no. 2 than I did with no. 1. Congratulations!

Only 1 pregnancy here, but it is my understanding that it is always sooner than the first time around because your muscles know how to stretch this time around. Congrats!

Congratulations!!!!!!!! I can't remember when I started showing with #2. :( But I'm currently on #3 (9 weeks & 3 days)...I can still zip up my regular jeans but I'm bulging!! My belly button has already popped so I definitely look pregnant--but to outsiders, I'm sure I just look like I'm gaining weight. I can't wait until I actually look pregnant!!! :)

I was six weeks pregnant and coworkers were asking around to see if anyone knew if I was pregnant. At eight weeks we announced because there was no way anyone that knew me couldn't tell I was expecting. Congrats!

A lot sooner than with my first!! I was able to keep it hidden till about 3-4 months with my first one, definitely showing by 8 weeks with my second. I am pretty small, so my boss was the first one to say "I knew it" when I finally told my work about the second.

answers from Utica on

With my first it was about 3 months that you could visibly see a little baby bump and my second (I am 23 weeks now) it was immediately. I took a test that came out negative but I was on day 35 without a period so I wasnt fully convinced so I said Ill take another in a week if my period doesnt come before then. I managed to wait almost 11 days before the next test and in that time my husband says that he wanted so bad to tell me to take it because he swears I looked pregnant and the wait to prove it was driving him nuts - sure enough I was preggers =)
