I've seen a few first time moms worry that people won't be able to tell they are pregnant compliments of their fluffy physique. And I joined the chorus of people who assured them that usually as you approach the third trimester at the latest people get brave and start broaching the subject with you. This was based on my personal experience with my first.
But now with my second @ 24 weeks I find less people who seem to notice I'm pregnant than they did the first time around. And I'm wondering of repeat moms had similar experiences from kid to kid, as their tummies took on different shapes or sizes?
The irony for me is that I feel I'm bigger this time around, and I'm about 2 sizes smaller than with my first. And sensibly, it's also possible that the people I see during errands and such may be too busy, or distracted to notice or care, or even may notice but not feel comfortable asking. The world, after all, doesn't evolve around me just because I'm with child LOL.
