For those that are pregnant the 2nd time or more around....
I just learned that I'm 5 weeks pregnant. It was a bit of a surprise. I gave birth to my first child last year 
My question is did you feel you showed much earlier on, did you pack on more weight with the 2nd? I'm shocked with all the bloat I'm feeling at just 5 weeks. All my work clothes are feeling snug and couple of them I bought two weeks ago and they were roomy. What's worrying me is that I'm going to get huge overnight. I lost about 3 quarters of my pregnancy weight so I am still a bit overweight. I promised myself I would eat healther with this pregnancy. No junk food or ice cream. It will be hard but I'm going to try.

Re: For those that are pregnant the 2nd time or more around....
Im on baby #2 and dc will be 17m apart.. and I started wearing my maternity cloths much sooner than I did last pregnancy. So I would say Yes i started to show alot sooner. Weight wise gained quicker b/c didnt have M/s like I did with my dd.. i was sick with her until week 16 and this pregnancy only was naseous from week 9-11. The weight isnt packing on quicker, just different. I was pretty much all baby with dd and same again this pregnancy.

Re: For those that are pregnant the 2nd time or more around....
Unfortunately, I started to show way early with #2. With #1, I didn't show until about 16 weeks and I only gained 23 lbs during that pregnancy. Here I am 22 weeks into pregnancy #2...I started showing at around 10 weeks and have already put on a lot of weight. I will definitely top the weight gain of my first pregnancy. I am carrying so differently.

I did start to show a bit earlier, but I seem to be gaining at exactly the same rate as I did with DS

This is my second and my DD will be 25 months when  is born.
I definately showed early and had to wear maternity early but I have gained less this time- about 5-6 pds. I haven't changed my eating habits though- I still indulge since I realized this is my only time to do so guilt free.

I was very bloated early on - and just sucked it up and put on maternity jeans just b.c they were more comfortable. I don't think you necessarily gain more weight the second time. So far I have lost 5 lbs - and I'm 13 weeks today.

Re: For those that are pregnant the 2nd time or more around....
I am pregnant with #2. My DC's will be 29 months apart.
The bloating in the beginning definitley happened.
I am 11.5 weeks now and my maternity jeans from pregnancy #1 are sooo comfy (as well as lounge pants).
All my other maternity pants are too big right now, but, Im sure I will fit into them in no time.
