This is my 3rd pregnancy, when will I show?
With each pregnancy, you tend to show earlier and earlier. Part of it is because each pregnancy
stretches things out.
I know. I already have stretch marks from the prior pregnancies.
Most women show at four and five months along with the first pregnancy, sooner with the
second. With the third, you'll show around the start of the second trimester if not sooner.
I'd hate to think I'll look like a blown up balloon or a rope with a knot in it while
pregnant.
While the muscles holding the baby in are more relaxed, it is made up for by a body
practiced in pushing out the kid. You'll show sooner, but you'll get the benefit of shorter
labor.
I'll stick out more.
Unless you have diabetes or another condition that leads to a larger child, you're not going
to stick out much more at nine months along.
I'll have to switch my maternity wardrobe sooner.
After this many pregnancies, it would be easy to think of the maternity wardrobe as your
wardrobe.
I'll have to switch to my maternity bras sooner.
At least they won't get bigger than they did in the first pregnancy right before you started
nursing.
**** only grow once, with the first pregnancy. After that, it is just inflation and deflation.
And like a balloon, your uterus will expand faster this time.
*Am I going to get more droopy, because the supporting muscles are all stretched out?
Your *** might sag more with each pregnancy as the tissue stretches out, but that can
happen with age, too. Sagging underarm skin and jowls are due to age and weight, not pregnancy.
*That depends on how much weight is gained with the pregnancy.
They say the body snaps back into shape faster after birth when you are younger. It might
be hard to lose any baby weight you gain.
*I never gained much with each pregnancy.
That gets harder as the number of kids to chase grows.
*No, it means I have two reasons already why I can't stay in bed all day.
