How is the pregnancy different from the previous?

I am truly thrilled to be pregnany again. I always wanted my babies close in age. But since being pg this time I almost feel guilty that the excitment isn't the same as with my first. I LOVED being pregnant the first time and now I feel blah. I didnt mind people touching my belly unless it was a stranger at the grocery store and now it annoys the heck out of me. I dont even talk to the baby like I did with DD. I know most of it is I am busying chasing a 12 month old. But sometimes I feel like I am neglecting this poor child. Anyone else feeling the same?

well, DD just woke up so there goes the long answer I was going to write out.. short version, you're not alone in feeling that way

I feel the same way! Sometimes I feel guilty for not loving pg this time around but really why would I? I just want to hold my baby, see the two play together and etc... My first tri was much harder this time, I felt sick 24/7 and had no time to rest but now that I'm in my second tri I feel better than with #1. I don't have any cravings and am too busy with DS to think about the pg unless the little one starts kicking/moving a lot, I swear this one is more active than DS was, uh oh. Anyway I think thats normal.
