Why So Big!?!

 im expecting my 2nd baby and am 17 + 2 days gone due the 24th of july so not very far gone... i dont find out the sex for another 3 weeks!

but my bump is the same size now as it was at full term with my first little one (now 10 months) i know generally bump & babys tend to be bigger 2nd time round but this big!! really??

its starting to get really uncomfortable already and im finding it very difficult looking after my 10 month old son and being this big

has anybody else experience being so big with a 2nd child or is it just me??

any comments would be appreciated

i no just how you feel even tho this is child number 3 im nearly 20 weeks and huge but i think it is because you have got pregnant quickly as have i.  My son is 8 months old and when i seen the midwife when i was first pregnant she told me i would start to show from around 6 weeks! when i havent started to show normally until after 5months im hopeing that it will slow down soon rather than keep getting bigger.  Good Luck xx

i know how your feeling. im expecting my second baby (a girl) and i have a 9 1/2 month old little girl. i was supprised how quick i got big this time. im finding it a little harder being pregnant this time because now ive got a baby to look after at the same time. god she aches my back when i have to pick her up, shes 21lb at the moment so im dreading picking her up when im full term and she will be heaver. i dont have any advise for you...just thought id say im in the same boat as you so know how ur feelin :)

Hi, I'm the same, also on my second and 10 weeks just now, belly is huge look what I was like at about 20 weeks last time and struggling to hide it really I am conscious. I have been feeling movements for about a week now but not bubble like flutters like last time more prominent flutters so I'm not sure if I am further on than we think, have to wait another 3 weeks for my scan! Good luck Jac, Holly 2 and 10 week bump x
