Another 2nd pregnancy question!

JLB24

Do you/did you have a lot more aches and pains with your 2nd pregnancy.  I feel like I have lots more this time around and I just generally feel off.  The random pains are nonstop!

My 2nd pregnancy was just as great as the first, almost identical until the end when I got hit with severe back pain that I didn't have the first time around.  Of course your body isn't totally the same after #1 and I know that everyone has different experiences.  Just enjoy it as much as you can!!  I miss being pregnant!!!!

My second pregnancy was easier than the first, but DD was 2 pounds lighter at the end than her brother. This time around has been the hardest though. I think a lot of it is trying to keep up with the other two kids.

Even through I was on bedrest with ds1, ds2 and this pregnancies have been harder. This time around I'm just exhausted and have had no energy the whole time. I'm also not a great pregnant person. I'll take a newborn any day over being pregnant.

I have a lot more pain this time around. My pelvis is constantly aching. Usually by the end of the day I have a hard time walking. 

Don't worry, you are definitely not alone!

Yeah second pregnancy was harder for me. My joints loosened sooner, making me feel ready to break the whole 3rd tri lol. Also, after pains as your ute shrinks to normal were horrendous after #2 whereas I barely had any after DS1. Besides that though, post partum has been easier this time.

I didn't wait long enough between pregnancies IMO because my muscles never got back into shape and now I am in pain all the time. My back and belly muscles kill me all day long because they are still soft from the first pregnancy and now they have to support this big weight again. Plus my tailbone feels like it is breaking in half. A belly support belt definitely hepls though, so maybe you could try one.

My second pregnancy was completely different from my first. My pregnancy with DD1 was extremely easy and I felt great the entire time. With DD2, I was sick for the first 5 months and had horrible sciatic pain. It was rough.

This pregnancy is sooo much worse than my first one!  Definately worse aches and pains, along with zero energy and "morning" sickness that could kill an elephant.

My first pregnancy was easier and so far this time around has been the hardest though. I think a lot of it is trying to keep up with the other two kids.
