I am only 7weeks pregnant but I have a bump already, I was just wondering if this is normal for your second pregnancy? with my first I didnt show until I was almost 8 months gone!
Do you think I may just be retaining a lot of water which is making me look further on than I am?

It's possible you could be retaining water. I would say that is more likely then showing at this point. You probably will start showing around three months because it is true that you show sooner with 2nd pregnancies and on because your muscles have already been stretched. Or, maybe you are further than you think?

the baby is only the size of a small pea so its not the baby showing yet. It may be water as you said. Im nearly 24 weeks on my third pregnancy and am only just showing a little. Its really weird i was showing at 5 months on my previous two pregnancys. They say you get bigger the more pregnancys you have but im sure not big on this pregnancy.

I'm having my first, but I've heard a lot that you show much sooner on a second pregnancy than the first. Everyone tells me that your body remembers and is like, "Oh, this again. Okay." And it all just expands really quick. My best friend is preggers with her #2. She's 10wks and alredy showing for a few weeks now. I woud guess it's normal. You can always ask your doctor to be sure though.

Women who have previously had children show a lot sooner than women with thier 1st. Their stomach muscles aren't as tight because of thier first pregnancy stretching them out.
I'm 4 months pregnant and finally showing. My cousin in law is pregnant with her 2nd, she is due a day before me and she started showing at like 2 months.

Your body is more experienced this time around. And every pregnancy is different. I had extra fluid at the begining of my pregnancy and it made me look bigger. But once I got into my second trimester I evend out. And in my 3rd I didnt look like I was that far along and seemed small.

As it's your second, you could be showing a little. You got to remember that your muscles have already been stretch once.I bet you get the flutters (small movements, feels a bit like wind ) earlier than you did with your first, i did at 9 weeks

Baby is waaaay too small to be causing a bump at this point. It's either water retention or intestinal bloating.

I wouldn't worry about it. You might be further along. You might be enjoy food a lot. Could be lots of things. I wouldn't worry. I know they say, you start to show earlier on your second kid.
