How was your second pregnancy different?

Question

How was your second pregnancy different from you first? I’m only 13 dpo but not experiencing the same soar boobs I did with my first pregnancy so far.

Answer

I had no symptoms with this pregnancy until like 16 weeks! Feels very different from my first. Finding out the gender today!! Currently 20w2d

Answer

My first pregnancy was SUPER easy. I never threw up, and had almost no symptoms, until the very end when I got a little acid reflux, and swollen feet. 
My second (successful) pregnancy was 5 years later (at age 42) and was WAY worse. I threw up the entire pregnancy, had acid reflux from about 4 months in, all the way to the end, and never slept more than 2 hours in a row without waking to pee or in pain after about 4 months in. I had terrible hip pains during my 5th month and 7th month, (in the bone, not the ligaments) that made every position uncomfortable, and had to go to the chiropractor (which didn’t help) and do yoga every night (which did). I had Braxton Hicks all the time, and had swollen feet again, during the last month or two. 
I’m sure my age had a lot to do with it, but it was night and day for me. But SO worth it as now I have another beautiful baby girl! She is 10 weeks old now, and totally worth it. I won’t be doing this again, 🤣 but so glad I was able to have her! (We had 5 miscarriages after my first, so for a long time it didn’t look like it was going to happen.)

Answer

First pregnancy i had severe morning sickness but when it went away everything was good until my daughter was born. Second pregnancy with my son i threw up the entire time including the morning my water broke, severe morning sickness, daily migraines, cramps, swollen feet, braxton hicks...it was a rough ride.

Answer

This time around I was sick all day long the entire first trimester. I could hardly eat, I actually lost weight which definitely didnt happen the first time around. I feel like everything else has been the same ...  I gained 50 pounds with my first & now with my second im 34 weeks but ive only gained 17 pounds. I had painless contractions with my first & I have been having some cramping already so im sure I’ll be feeling everything this go round.

Answer

First trimester of second pregnancy was way harder than I recall in my first. I think running around after my toddler is contributing to that! I was sleeping so much. But second trimester is shaping up almost exactly the same. Fingers crossed it keeps up, I was fine with my first pregnancy!

Answer

I’m 10w with #2, and so far the nausea is a bit worse. My boobs got bigger quicker too. But other than that it’s about the same. My worst symptom the first time was chronic sinus infections around 20 weeks that lasted until after birth. I’m just praying that one doesn’t come back.

Answer

Popped out about 9-10 weeks was about 13-14 weeks last time. Queasiness lasted about two weeks last time two months. Indoor allergies through the roof this time, crazy skin allergies last time. So far these are the big changes. Same cravings this time. Spicy! 
Things that I had last time I’m hoping I don’t get this time. Heartburn on the nuclear level where even ketchup hurt. Preeclampsia. And Preemie 4 weeks early.

Answer

10w today and I'm amazed with how dofferent this 2md one is compared to last year's. I dont have any symptoms what so ever other than being hungry,peeing more,more tired,no sore boobs which are growing. What i love is how I can feel everything changing day by day when my insides grow.with my first i only felt movementd with my legiments and my kid moving lmao
