Haha I'm really really waiting for any kind of bump! 
I didn't show with Jack until about 25 weeks (yes I looked a bit porky up until then but nothing else) and even when I gave birth I wasn't that huge. And I wasn't that big to start off with either, usually a 12-14 so was quite surprised. I think this one is going to follow the same trend. Actually, TBH I'm smaller this time round than I was last time due to bad m/s. |

I was fairly flat (just looked a little fat) up until about 21 weeks. Just starting to show and that was how my mother guessed that I was pregnant - we didn't tell anyone until after the anatomy scan.
Anyway in the last couple of weeks I have really popped out and some days I feel huge. I'm not that big yet but it feels that way if it makes sense. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I did that with #3 but not any of the others. It gave me such a fright and I was worried I had two in there!! I needed the next size of maternity clothes post-six months. -------------  |

I didn't really start to show until about 15ish weeks and now 8 weeks on I look like I am 30+ weeks, starting to get all those lovely comments again - you know the ones - you sure theres only one etc?
So yeah, am sure I am heaps bigger this time and popped out alot quicker, for how far along I am! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

YES!!!! I'm already bigger than I was when I was about 15weeks I think. I had to tell work already as I was getting a lot of sideway glances at morning tea time "who ate all the biscuits?!?!?"  
I couldn't wear my jeans or work pants from about 6 weeks as they were cutting me in half. I'm normally a 14 so I think it's just the post-baby jelly belly being pushed up and forward lol ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Yep, I showed really quickly. I did with Jake too though, but it was definitely faster this time (more belly and less fat all over in the first trimester). And by 23wks I was measuring what I did at 30wks with Jake!!! Yes, sick of all the comments too!!! ------------- DS (5yrs) and DD (3yrs) |

I showed early both times but definitely earlier this time around than last time. -------------

I fee like the goodyear blimp, its amazing. Have taken to wearing jacket type tops that are long and loose just to hide it a little, I dont want to tell work just yet incase something happens along the way! ------------- http://lilypie.com">
