How soon did you "pop" with pregnancy #2?
I'm barely 8 weeks pregnant today, and BAM, I popped! So soon? I am not ready to tell anyone yet, nor do I have maternity clothes for work! The first time, I had twins. I started showing at 8 weeks, but it was twins. What gives???????
Did anyone find themselves popping sooner with pregnancy #2?

I pop out right around the same time with pregnancy one and two. Was in maternity pants by 10 weeks.

I felt like I popped around 8 weeks and it definitely wasn't all in my head bc I needed to go out and by all elastic waist pants.. BUT when I started telling everyone around 14 weeks no one had any idea- so it's definitely more noticeable on yourself

It took longer than I expected like 16w but even at 19w I can basically hide it if I want depending on what I wear. I was surprised bc I thought you show so much quicker with #2 but I am tall so I think that might help...

It totally is not in my imagination then. I was wearing a more fitted shirt and yoga pants at playhooray yesterday, and one of the grandmas asked me if I was expecting  I died! Then I realized I must have popped, I'm not just constipated.

I agree with this! I swore I looked noticeably preggo by 12 weeks with each but as I started telling people no one had any idea. Now at almost 21 weeks with dc#3 I have a definite formed baby bump that is undeniable. I think the difference is we see the start of a little belly early on and think it looks so much bigger than it does.
As for that Grandma, I'm shocked, she really took a chance! I cannot believe anyone would ask if they weren't 100% sure. At 8 weeks you couldn't possibly look that preggo!

With #2 I was in maternity pants by 9-10 weeks. I'm not sure people really noticed my belly for a few more weeks after that though, unless they were just being polite.

Re: How soon did you "pop" with pregnancy #2?
I popped really early with #2, I want to say 8-9 weeks. It definitely wasn't just known to me either or 'all in my head', I was getting the "Is she pregnant" side-eye from many people. By 12 weeks I had people (including strangers) asking me if I was pregnant. I didn't come out until after 12 weeks but many people already knew just by looking at me.
I don't know why exactly you can show so early, I know your uterus isn't that big but you definitely can. I hate when people say "It's just bloat" because I never looked like that when I wasn't pregnant, I don't care how bloated I was. I know it's not the actual baby but it's definitely pregnancy related.
Btw, if you're not ready to tell, I found flowy blouse-like tops to be great for hiding a belly. I got a lot at The Loft and I know you can find them at Kohls. Anything with layers of fabric, ruffles, etc really works well.
