Is second pregnancy harder?

Question

I am super early with my second. About 5 weeks now, and my lower back is killing me. Maybe its the combination of early pregnancy changes and picking up my toddler but did anyone experience these additional aches and pains with your second?

Answer

I just hit 12 weeks. My first was a pretty easy pregnancy and this one so far has been pretty easy. No symptoms with either. I do think I’m starting to show a little. I didn’t show until around 20 weeks with my first.

Answer

I’m in my 2nd currently and it has been a walk in the park but I’m also very concerned I could be having ectopic

Answer

If I felt this way with my first…. Having a second wouldn’t be very appealing at all. I was great the first round. Uncomfortable at the end. But that’s about it really. 
This pregnancy has been waaaay different. I have a 20 month old girl to chase around. I am tired and wore out. My patience is awful and it makes me feel terrible. Sleeping is rare. I’m 38 weeks pregnant now and I am so ready to have my son here. I want to feel like myself again.

Answer

My 2nd was the easiest pregnancy for me.

Answer

Mine has been harder than the first… I’m way more tired. I was more nauseous, and I have a 2 year old toddler to care for now.

Answer

Definitely much harder. My body feels like I aged 30+ years. I’m always sore. Really made me realize how good my first pregnancy was 😅

Answer

I'm finding it much harder. I'm more sore and tired. Plus I have a toddler to take care of.

Answer

Yup
I’ll be 29 weeks tomorrow with my 2nd and my pregnancy with my daughter was a walk in the park compared to this one

Answer

yes much harder imo
