Moms with 2 or more - how diff were your pregnancies?

With DC #1 I was beyond sick everyday, in and out of the hospital lost weight like crazy
With this one I am still very nauseous but only got sick once. I am 7 w today and noticed I am not as nauesous today and it def makes me nervous.
Did anyone have from one extreme to another?
TIA

Re: Moms with 2 or more - how diff were your pregnancies?

Very different with all 3 pregnancies.

1st pregnancy had no morning sickness and no issues...delivered Chat Icon 6 days early.

2nd pregnancy I was nauseous in the beginning and actually got sick a few times. My contractions started as early at 26weeks and I had to be given a shot to stop them. delivered Chat Icon 2.5 weeks early.

3rd pregnancy I had what felt like a dull hangover from about 7wks until 11wks. I never got sick but had headaches and upset stomachs. I am only 12wks now and still have a queezy feeling here/there. Not sure what is in store for me over the next 28weeks.

I'm only a FTM but wanted to say that if you're only 7w pregnant, you still have time! NOT that I'm wishing MS upon you, at all, because I hope you never have sickness this pregnancy. But it's very common for MS to start at 7 or 8w, so I don't think you're out of the woods yet.

After my DS I said "one and done" because my pregnancy and delivery were HORRIBLE... Everything that could have gone wrong and anything that you wish you didn't get I did...failed every test, ms, joint pain, carpel tunnel, bicep tendinitis, placenta previa, placenta accreta, wkly high risk appointments, bed rest, preterm contractions, premie, etc.

I'm 30 weeks with my #2 and this pregnancy is a dream compared to the last...everything is the exact opposite...except I got carpel tunnel again worse but that's nothing in the grand scheme of things...

exactly the same, a few minor differences

more joint pain with #2
much more movement with #2 (and I thought I had a ton with #1)

My first two were very different and this one seems to be so far as well. I don't even feel pregnant at all this time (which is nerve-wracking) other than the exhaustion.

Mine have been mostly the same. I got a touch more "morning sickness" this time around but neither time was I really "sick". I just had some queasiness and food aversions. I never vomited or even came close. It all went away by 12 weeks both times.

The biggest difference is with DD everyone told me I looked like I was having a girl (we were team Chat Icon ). We're Chat Icon again this time and everyone says I look like I'm having a boy. I guess I'm carrying differently. I was fat all over with DD and this time I'm "all belly". We'll see if the old wive's tale holds true. Chat Icon

Same here. With DD I was sick for like the first 15 weeks, and just felt horrible the whole pregnancy. I didn't know how I was going to do it again.

This pregnancy has been a breeze. I feel great, never got sick once. And I am having another girl, so it has nothing to do with the sex of the baby!

Both pregnancies have been about the same in terms of symptoms. No morning sickness with either, lots of exhaustion in the beginning. The only difference I see is that with baby #2 (DS) I am carrying smaller and more compact than I did with my DD. I felt and looked bigger with her. lol.

Different pregnancies.

2nd pregnancy didn't seem as bad as first, as far as nausea. I was more relaxed the 2nd time around, so I wasn't dealing with first-time mom stress either.

But the 3rd trimester has been harder. I gained more weight, the baby is laying differently, and I'm a lot more uncomfortable. It's harder to move around, I have less energy, my joints ache a LOT more, and overall I feel useless because I can't do very much without getting winded, tired, or sore.

My 1st and 2nd pregnancies were almost identical. No morning sickness. Gained about the same amount of weight. Both babies were breech..... This time around there has def. been a difference. I did get nauseous in the beginning but was lucky enough not to get sick.
