Did you experience...baby bump faster w/2nd PG?

Okay, so I know, silly question since we all ask about baby bumps.

But I am only 7 weeks along and I have already outgrown my 10s (pants) and even the 12s are snug. It seems too early out to have to buy maternity clothes.
I haven't gained any weight but I can't seem to suck it in anymore either. Even my compression shirts and shorts aren't helping.

I have heard that the 2nd baby usually shows quicker....and maybe because it's pushing against the fat/skin I have right now....but has any experienced this?

It's just weird to have someone comment on my 'baby bump' and still be so early out...

Thanks,
Jessica

I'm definitely bigger this time around than I was with my twins.
I've actually lost 10 lbs at this point but none of my pants fit around the waist and at my last OB visit, I was measuring 4 weeks ahead of where I am.

Oh wow...good to know that I'm not the only one.

Congrats!!!!!!!

I think they say that the 2nd time around it is because your body has already adjusted once or something.

I just feel silly sometimes wondering if it's just my imagination or what.

Yay, oh wait, not sure that should be a yay....but now I feel like I haven't totally lost my mind.
Thank you!!!

I so feel like going out and buying those belly band things that go over your clothes so you can just not button and zip and this would cover it....wonder where I could get one....

Congrats!!!!!!!!!

I have read that you do start showing a little bit even as early as 7 weeks from bloating and blood volume.

Oh wow, I didn't realize...thank you!  :)

I thought it was funny...a dress I wore a little over 2 months ago, wore Saturday night to a Quincenera and all anyone could see was my baby bump....I was kind of embarassed over it-not sure why, maybe just because it felt weird so early out...
