My children are 14 & 16 years old and I hit the reset button :/ (due in August) and it doesn't feel any different than the first two times, as far as the body is concerned. I am grateful for the advancement in healthcare though.

My oldest & my second child are 7 years apart. I didn't really "remember" what pregnancy was like until i started going thru stuff again & it was like oh ok this is normal, I remember this lol kinda like riding a bike

Same here! My first two were 7 years apart. I felt this was a HUGE advantage. My body had plenty of time to bounce back from #1 and she is a huge help with #2. I'm feeling more of a strain with #3 because I'm dealing with a toddler and my body was just getting back to normal.

My daughter is 11 and my son will be 8 when the baby comes. I was 19 and 23 with them and now 31 with this baby. I have morning sickness with this one and didn't with them. I just hope the weight comes off as easy as the other two.

Mine are 10 and 9 and I am due with this one in 9 days. This pregnancy has been completely different. Never had any morning sickness with the first 2 have had it the entire pregnancy along with more aches and pains. Ready to be done.

My pregnancies weren't that different than expected, and my son was 9 when I had my daughter. It has taken my body longer to bounce back though.

I also have a 7&8 year old and I'm due in September and this pregnancy has been completely different, don't get me wrong I love it just as much but so much has changed that I'm actually enjoying this one more even though I'm much sicker this time around

Mine are 8 & 6. This time has been much harder on me. But my girls are pretty self sufficient and that has been helpful. It is a gap, but I am excited for them to be old enough to remember their little brother as a baby.

I'm curious as well, my girls are 6&8, they will be 7&8 at the time the new baby comes in November 2015.
