The biggest Ive gotten was with my 2nd child. I did start showing earlier with the 3rd, but didnt get as big. Now Im pregnant with my 4th and I started showing later than I did with the 3rd.

I honestly don't think this is a "given". i too have heard this..and I did get the "biggest" with my third baby (born 4 more months ago). HOWEVER I was the smallest when I had this last baby so I was actually able to "show" this time so that's why I felt bigger..even though I was a lower weight.
Anyway, no matter what, if you watch what you eat and walk through your pregnancy, you can defnitely have a healthy baby and keep the weight gain to a minimum (although please don't get obsesive about it..your baby needs the nutrients and you can take that weight off eventually).
Good luck!

each pregnancy is different. It's all about the way you took care of your body before that depends on what happens with your body. If you didn't get to lose the weight from the previous pregnancies then you will more than likely show earlier and gain more weight.
It's also important to exercise while pregnant it makes the delivery a little easier.
Congrats and Good Luck!

Yep you will get bigger...but the nice thing is that you can still get it off through exercise. Three, how lucky, I wanted four but was at least blessed with two, one girl and a boy. I am O- and it was hard carrying them. Good luck to you and understand NO MATTER HOW BIG you get....it is a beautiful experience. That is until you are cussing you partner, the doctor, and the nurse while you are getting ready to deliver.

Every woman is different as is every pregnancy, yes as a general rule you will show sooner, which may make you feel like you are bigger, but being bigger isnt always the case.
