    Good luck on the scan Sa-ra-ra-ra.

    i'm having clothes issues too. I wear a suit to work every day and I've been in a size 12 since I had my DD (size 10 before), but my trousers barely button, and when I do button them, they are so uncomfortable. I haven't told work yet, so don't want to go into maternity clothes yet (and you can't get a reasonably priced maternity business suit anywhere!) So I bought a pair of size 14 trousers in Next yesterday and am wearing a loose shirt, no jacket (because it is so warm). I'm going to have to tell them soon, because I'm not buying any more bigger, non-maternity clothes.

    I'm 12 weeks and I'm not showing yet. Is that normal? :o

    I'm a size 8 so not sure if that has anything to do with it but it's worrying me abit.:o

    It's normal not to show at 12 weeks. Some women do, but I bet most don't or if they do, it's just a general waist thickening rather than a proper bump. Try not to worry.

    God no! That would destroy the most robust of pelvic floors!

    I didn't show with my first until about 15 weeks. It is definitely just getting wider in the middle with everything rearranging itself.

    You show quicker with subsequent babies. It's like a balloon. The first time you blow it up it is difficult to inflate. Then if you deflate it and blow it up again, it expands really easily.
