Mums expecting their 2nd, 3rd....

[Mrs Mc]

Is your second (or more) pregnancy different to you first?

Currently TTC and symptom spotting. Comparing to my previous pregnancy, thinking, oh by this point this was happening, or by this day I was feeling/noticed this...

Did you have different symptoms (or same symptoms but at different parts) to yoyr previous pregnancies?

My second pregnancy is completely different. Entirely, completely, shockingly different.

I would say apart from feeling a lot more tired this time (but that could be because I have a toddler this time) that I have felt almost exactly the same. First sign was about a week before bfp so would have been approx 4 weeks, I started getting shooting pains in my groin like trapped wind. Oh joked I was probably pregnant, we weren't trying, as he had remembered me complaining about it last time x

I'm pregnant with my 3rd and had no morning sickness with my 1st a little bit with my 2nd and now with this one i'm feeling a lot more sickness . But everything else is about the same

 

[Ashersmomma]

I'm feeling more tired with this one, and less morning sickness. The other symptoms(cramping, pulling pains and all) are pretty much the same though. I am having more headaches this time too, and even had a severe migraine. Never had that with DS. Barely had any headaches at all.

My first 3 healthy pregnancys were almost identical with no morning sickness, tired, and cm. This time I have all day extreme nausea, exhausted, and very little cm.

All 3 of mine were completely different ..... This one by far the worst!!

 

[bumblebeexo]

I feel the same as my first pregnancy nausea wise, only feeling a little sick some mornings so that's pretty lucky! A lot more tired this time but that's probably because I'm chasing a toddler all day!

 

[Rhio92]

This is my 2nd pregnancy... I'm exhausted and irritable, and feel sick a lot more. Never has it this badly with my first!

 

[LadyHutch]

I feel a little better today so I thought I'd come back and elaborate on the difference between my last pregnancy and my current one.

I didn't even know I was pregnant with my last until almost 9 weeks. I had almost no morning sickness, and other than swollen boobs and insomnia, I had little to no symptoms. I felt better than I ever had in my life and LOVED being pregnant. I could hardly wait to get pregnant again, I felt so good.

This pregnancy I have HG. I feel like I am dying most of the time. I sleep a LOT since I am so starved and dehydrated from the vomiting and nausea. I am not enjoying myself at all and most days just want to bawl.

I would have to say that its roughly the same. I was actually a lot more tired with the f1st but then again I have a 1 year old running around so I’m keeping busy. I do feel a like more sick randomly then with the f1st. But all the other symptoms are pretty much the same. I can’t wait till 2nd tri. I’m hoping I get that same energy as I did with my 1st.

So much to prepare for and like my first, I’ll be the one doing everything.
