When do you start showing in pregnancy?

It may surprise you to learn that when you’ve already had a baby, you could see your bump sooner than the first-time round. “It is possible you may notice a little bump sooner than in your first pregnancy. This is generally due to the muscles and ligaments having expanded once before and is nothing to worry about,” reassures Louise.If you're pregnant with more than one baby, you can expect to see that baby bump of yours sooner rather than later.

It’s easy to compare your bump to other women who are due around the same time as you but there could be plenty of reasons for this so try not to get bogged down by it. “Every woman is different and so it makes sense that all bumps are not created the same! Women with very strong abdominal muscles may not see a bump until later on in pregnancy due to the uterus being held closer to the body," explains Louise.

The size you were pre-pregnancy can have an impact of when you start to show too as if you carry extra weight around your stomach, this may mean your bump is hidden in the early stages of your pregnancy. It's worth checking in with female family members who have had babies too as genes can also play a part in when you start to look pregnant too.
