Hi girls! This is my 2nd baby. I don't remember feeling so nausous all the time. It is a milliion times worse this time around. I have actually almost threw up a few times, never happened last time. I don't know if it's because it's my 2nd or that I'm not able to "rest" as much now that I have a tot running around! Anyone else feel worse this time around?

Re: 2nd time moms....
About the same. Nauseous all the time. Fatigued. Bloated.
I think when we were TTC #2, I briefly forgot how horrible it was to be pregnant with #1.
I never threw up at work with my 1st. I just got done throwing up so right there it's worse because it sucks throwing up around co-workers. I was feeling alright until I ate an apple and I've been feeling sick ever since.
I remember last time feeling pretty awful but I've been more gaggy this time around. I was in the middle of the supermarket on Sat. I had just sampled some nectarines and plums in the produce section and randomly started getting a juicy mouth and my stomach started churning and had to abandon my husband and daughter in the cereal aisle and run for the front door. I puked in some bushes on the side of the building...it was awful. What's annoying is I feel car-sick all the time and just randomly have to puke, I get about a 1 minute heads up to find a garbage can or I'm in trouble. I get nervous about being in crowds because you really can't control yourself when your body has made that decision to evict your lunch.
Almost everything is different with this LO: nausea still 24/7 but not nearly as bad (not throwing up or dry heaving nearly as much), smell aversions almost seem worse; EXHAUSTED (of course, I spend a lot of time chasing, and playing with, DD now); bad gas paind; heartburn; and oily skin.
I KNOW I forgot how much 1st tri sucks. *ugh*
You are not alone. This 2nd pregnancy is feeling different already and I am not very far along. I am feeling SO tired, peeing a ton and getting nauseous in the morning and at night before bed, which I never got with my first. Have not actually gotten sick yet though!
