1st Trimester

Second time moms- is this pregnancy different?

Just curious because I'm starting to worry some...

With DS, I was terribly sick from 6 weeks until 17 weeks. I didn't really have any other symtpoms - no sore boobs, constipation, etc, but all the m/s made up for the lack of other symptoms.

This time, I have zero symptoms. No m/s (not even a tiny bit of nausea), no sore boobs, nothing. I was really tired at first, but that seemed to mostly subside last week.  

So of course, now I'm worried. I know every pregnancy is different, but based on how awfully sick I was last time, I just think its really odd that I'm not sick at all this time.

Add to that that I had a tiny bit of brown spotting last night (which I logically know is not a big deal and I had the same with DS) and I'm just feeling really negative.

 Grrrr, I hate the mind games of the first tri.

Re: Second time moms- is this pregnancy different?

  • I am less tired and more sick this pregnancy.

  • Loading the player...
  • Your two pregnancies sound exactly like mine! Terribly sick with DS but nothing with this one! Makes me worry too but I try not too!
  • I am way more nauseated, way more tired.. but have more energy.. if that makes sense. My tiredness is almost in my head,eyes- not in the rest of my body. It's quite odd.

    My acid reflux not half as bad.

    Not wanting to eat much- totally a new thing.. loving it.

    Wicked thristy this time- not at all last time.

    Very different

  • I know how you feel, this is actually my third baby and I have had horrible m/s the past couple weeks until I discovered Seabands and lemon water. Anyways,  I know for sure I didn't have m/s at all with my second pregnancy. In fact, my second pregnancy was nearly symptom free. I just had mild cramping in the very begining. So try not to worry so much although I know it's hard but like you mentioned each pregnancy is different.

  • With my first son i was sick... would throw up and feel better...

    this one... Im sick 24/7 its horrible. i just got meds from the dr to help me stop with the puking! lol

    sooo different from the first!

  • I wasn't sick at all with DS, but with this one I have already been nauseated. Also with this one food in general makes me want to gag. With DS I ate everything in sight.

  • I threw up a lot more with DD!  This time, I just feel sick most of the time.  I also seem less tired, so far, and I have a ton of aversions- not a problem I had with DD.  It's crazy how different each pregnancy is.

  • With my DD I hardly had any symptoms just a little spotting around 8-9 wks, no m/s at all. This time around my m/s is horrible! I've had sore boobs, which is fun with DD since she like to use them as drums, and kick them while i'm changing her diaper. And I've been having cramps for a couple of weeks as well. Doc says everything's ok, but it still makes me worry!

  • I had waves of nausea from weeks 7-10 with my daughter. I was extremely tired and slept a lot, too. With this one, I've practically been sick since sex. It's not waves, either. It's almost non-stop. I don't throw up but I just constantly feel like I boozed it up hard the night before. It blows. I'm extra tired but can't sleep bc I have a 2.5 year old to chase around when I get home from work. I'm 8w6d right now. Not-so-patiently awaiting 2nd tri. 
  • I just found out Im pregnant on Thanksgiving morning and honestly was surprised. This time is soo different than w/ my DS. With my 1st pregnancy, I had all day on and off nausea. This time around, I have no to very little nausea. My boobs are extremely sore tho and I have been more fatigued I think. Absolutely different! lol Like I said, I really didnt seem to notice anything different; I took the test bc I hadnt had a period since Oct 4th and Im very irregular so I assumed if I took the test & got the negative like I was expecting, it would reassure my body & I would get my period but surprise surprise, I got a + which my husband and I are extremely happy about! I had to re-test yesterday to reassure myself that I am indeed pregnant bc the no sickness was making me feel not so prego.. and within 15sec I got another positive. Its truly remarkable how diff they are

  • I am more tired and more sick.  More everything, actually.  It kind of sucks.  Sad

  • It's pretty early on for me still, but I still have to share.  I'm frustrated.  I remember filling out a pregnancy journal religiously in the first tri of my 1st pregnancy.  I went back to look at it and it's so watered down, it's not helpful!  Since I guess I thought I was going to give it to my son one day I didn't include things like sore boobs and hemorrhoids and constipation.  Grrr.

    This one I haven't been hungry or had food aversions like I did with the last one.  I have tons of heartburn, which I don't think started as early (or fiercely) with DS.  I can't wait for my appt on Thursday, because it's hard to imagine everything's growing in there when I'm so asymptomatic.

    Not that I'm asking for symptoms.... to be clear.  :)

    My first, I was the same as you-- violent puking every day from 6-18 weeks.  This time, no vomming yet.  I am crossing my fingers that the 6 week mark this saturday will be nausea-free.

  • So far, yes. I had no SX with DS until close to 8 weeks, now I'm nauseated, crampy and my sense of smell is tweaked and I'm only 4 weeks.
  • Yep, this time is different for me.

  • With DD1 I was super sick the first 10 weeks, and then I felt better.

     With DS I was super tired, but I only threw up once.

    With DD2 I was incredibly sick and tired. For about 10 weeks every time I stood up or had to walk I got dizzy, everything went black for a few seconds, and then I felt like puking. #2 was the best pregnancy, #3 was the worst. Also, with 1 and 2 I never ever got constipated, and with 3 I did.

  • Yes, this time I am much more sick and tired.  I've also had bleeding, bed rest, pelvic rest, etc. this time around.  Last time was mostly complication free.

  • So far the only difference I notice is no sore boobs this time and today when I drank some milk it was not good.  And the big difference the soon to be one year old I have to chase around :)
  • With DS I had spotting, was super tired, sore boobs for a few days, nausea and some m/s and some serious cramping.

    This pregnancy, I am tired and my boobs have hurt for almost a week.  I have been super hungry and peeing a ton. 

    I was worried at first.  I took another test yesterday and the line was darker than the control line.

  • All of my pregnancies have been different. This time I didn't even know until week 8 or 9 that something was up.

    With my DD if I didn't eat every 30 minutes or something crazy like that, I was feeling yucky. And with DS I was so tired that I napped for two hours with DD every day.

  • This pregnancy is pretty much the opposite of DD. I remember being tired, but not to the point I am with this one. Also, I had no m/s with DD, but with this one I've been sick pretty much for the past three weeks. So ready to have it be done!
