I'm just curious - I've put on 3kgs already (I'm 8weeks) coz nothing stops the nausea except eating constantly sad, but I don't think it's fat that's showing around my belly. I can't suck it in, or stretch it out & it's all localised right at the front.......I'm not quite in maternity clothes yet, but I certainly feel the need to unbutton my jeans at the end of the day!! So when did you start to show for your second bub??
Your uterus is about the size of a grapefruit and still below your pubic bone at 8 weeks, so your tummy thickening is due to bloating and all your insides that are normally down behind your pubic bone moving upwards.
With my 2nd I didnt really start to show till around 15weeks (nobody said anything till 18 weeks though), with my 3rd pregnancy (twin boys) I was showing by 12 weeks and with this pregnancy I am just starting to show now, my dr said i will show quicker this pregnancy because i only had the twins in february and that my uterus will expand quicker, it is already just above my pubic bone.
congratulations on the pregnancy by the way
