Mom's with 3+ kids

Did you get bigger or as big with your 2nd? With my 2nd I was so much bigger than my first. I'm scared I'll be just as big or bigger with my 3. Any thoughts or insights?

I've been working out since I had my 2nd I am 8lbs smaller then when I got pregnant w baby #2 so I am hoping I don't get as big as baby #2 and that if it's a boy I am small like #1. #2 was a girl. Ahh. I am 8 weeks and my pants already feel snug.

With my #2 I was much smaller than with my #1. Both girls. But I over ate during #1 pregnancy lol. Pregnant with #3 now and I am only 4 wks 1 day and so bloated and out of shape haha...I look about 3 months..I am also concerned that this pregnancy might get huge lol

I was the smallest with #2. #1&2 were girls. With my boys #3,4,5 I was same weight and size but much bigger and lower than with #1&2. That could just be because of weak stomach muscles

I'm pregnant with my third and I feel like I'm also so much bigger this time and I was definitely bigger with my second than with my first.

This is baby number 4. Each one I looked bigger but actually lost weight all my pregnancies. My last one I lost 32 pounds while pregnant and with this one I lost 10 pounds so far. I am not trying to lose weight. However,  I look like I am about 8 months pregnant already am only 15 weeks 4 days.
