For moms who have carried a child of each sex, were your pregnancy symptoms different or the same for each baby?

Question

If you answered "Different for each gender" could you comment how it was different? Ie. Morning sickness, cravings, aversions, libido, bloated/not bloated, cranky/happy, etc.

Answer

With my daughter, I was so miserable. Nauseous 24/7, achy, tired, the whole bit! With my son (currently 25w) I have felt fine. Occasionally I will get nauseous but nothing horrible. However, i had horrible heartburn/acid reflux with both.

Answer

With my son, I was sick the 2nd trimester at lunch time. With my daughter, pork and vitamins made me sick the entire pregnancy. I won't know for a week or so what this one is and I haven't been sick at all. Every single pregnancy is different.

Answer

With my first son I wasn't sick none. All I did was eat/sleep. With my daughter I wasn't sick but I spit a lot! But with my second boy. Omg if I wasn't vomiting everyday. I had morning sickness real bad earlier in my first trimester where I had to quit my job. I'm 26weeks now and all I do is stuff my face lol

Answer

With my son i had bad morning sickness abd that was pretty much it.  No other symptoms.  I had a few cravings here and there especially in the third trimester.  With my daughter morning sickness was worse,  had acne,  back pain,  excessive bloating (it was terrible)

Answer

My pregnancies with son n daughter we're exactly the same except for my daughter I could not get enough sweet stuff and it's the same now,I can eat chocolate and lollies all day and just not satisfy the cravings!! Finding out this afternoon if it's boy or girl tho so we'll see if that symptom means something!

Answer

Daughters-morning sickness was actually throwing up. I craved salty foods. More energy, tons of movement, preferred to sleep on left side, high heart rate.

Sons was all the complete opposite.
