4th or subsequent pregnancy-when did you start to show?

Of those of you with 4 or more children, how early did you start to show?

I'm a size 10 usually, but at nearly 6 weeks have already got a little bump.

Have any of you had this happen too?

P.S. How were afterbirth pains?, they seem to get worse with each one!

I started showing at about 5wks...of course I thought it was "that time of the month" showing, lol, but found out a week later that it wasn't.

That makes me feel better, I know it's not just in my mind. I don't know about you, but this time around the tiredness, nausea, everything seems twice as bad!

With PG #4 I didnt start to show until around 16wks, but I was a size 6 before I got PG with my DD & I was tiny all through my PG with her, not like my previous 3 DS's where I completely blimped out with each PG.
The afterpains where shocking after my 4th PG, I had to take panadeine 15 & I was totally doubled over by them after Id fed her, for a day or so, they were terrible!

My 4th pregnancy was twins (fraternal boys)... I was popping out of my normal clothes at about 10 weeks.. no more sickness etc than with my three previous boys...

With DD didnt start popping out of my normal clothes till I was about 4-5 months, but the sickness and tiredness was worse than with the twins, even with the twins I was anemic, and wasnt as tired as with DD

after pains.... yeah I felt them, but nothing 2 nurofen didnt fix, but mostly I didnt need pain reliefe as they came in waves and were bearable for the most of it.
