I have an important question moms?

Don't stress. I believe the baby is fine. I didn't start show till i was almost 4 months with my 2nd baby. I only gained 11lbs the whole pregnancy(she was born at 34 weeks) If you are really worried call your doctor sometime they will bring you in and do a heart check if you feel weird just depends on your insurance. Another thing is remember that every pregnancy is different, so don't judge this one to your first.

I felt just the same, because I didn't have any morning sickness or any of the other symptoms at all. I was just tired a lot, and then toward teh end of the first trimester not even that.

I didn't start to show until at least 4 months (sorry, I always lose track of the weeks, but around 16), its hard to say if it will be different for you this time than last, there are so many factors. By around then you will be feeling the baby move around too so its a lot easier to be reassured. Not a lot you can do now except that know that it is usually _very_ obivious if something is wrong - you usually have a lot of bleeding and an absolute miscarriage if something happens to the baby.

Yes, you typically show sooner in your second pregnancy. Since other people didnt notice until you were 30 weeks. I would say people should start to notice this time around before you hit your third trimester, probably late into your second. I guess it depends on your build. I'm short and slender (5'3 115 pounds) pre prego, and I showed at around 16 weeks. I'm down to 105 now, so if for some reason I got pregnant,(my hubby would freak) I would show sooner.

Had you lost the baby weight from the first one before getting pregnant this time? If not, you might have some extra padding that will hide it longer. Don't worry mommy, you're pregnant! You should feel the baby move in a few months which will probably put you at ease. Atleast you aren't sick or anything. Good luck and congratulations!

Ok, I can only tell you from my personally experience. I had my 2nd daughter 18 months after my first, and I was showing fairly early. Your muscles have been stretched out and will never be what they were pre-pregnancy. The more stretched out the muscles are the more like you are to show sooner. However, each person is different so it may be different for you.

And if you are worried about things being ok more than likely they are but if you need reassure yourself, call your dr. and ask if you can come in for a fetal heart tone check. I did with my last pregnancy and the dr. and nurses were so nice and were more than willing to let me pop in and listen to my baby's heart beat. They didn't charge me or my insurance for it, and didn't need to make an appointment. I just showed up and 5 mins later was reassured that things were ok.

Give the dr. a call and see if they are willing to do that for you

I never had the typical pregnancy symptoms. I used to say that I wouldn't know I was pregnant except for the fact that I eventually got a belly (also around 4 mos.). When I could finally feel the baby kick, that was my only reasurance that it was really there. That and the regular check-ups. I don't know if you'll start to show sooner or not with your second.

I think it's ok to not have any symptoms. My first pregnancy I only had 1 week of morning sickness and it was mild enough I may not have noticed if I didn't know I was pregnant. Other than that I didn't have any symptoms. Also, 2nd pregnancies are always easier than the first, so count yourself lucky. My doctor told me that once you hear and see the heartbeat the chances of miscarriage are less than 1%. So I wouldn't worry if I were you and just consider yourself lucky that you are having any bad symptoms. Good luck!

Don't worry your baby is ok. If you don't feel any pregnancy symptoms that is ok too! you know that you are pregnant, and not having those symptoms is a lucky thing. If you are very worried you can talk to your doctor again but you seem to be doing fine. If you are not showing that is also seemingly a good thing, but dont worry usually with a second pregnancy you do show earlier. I dont think my advice is helpful I just want you to know you will be ok, and so will your baby.
