Those with more than one child...?

How different have your pg symptoms been with baby number two...three...or more? I'm not sure if I'm wording the question right I just hear some ppl say it's way worse and some say it's better the second or third pregnancy. Wanted your opinions.

Honestly all 3 have been pretty similar (so far- knock on wood) for me. No real nausea/MS, just some cramping and bloating and I'm assuming the fatigue will be kicking in around week 6 or 7.

My first I was nauseous and throwing up from 5 weeks - 15 weeks. I don't remember other symptoms other than big sore boobs. This time nothing really yet. Bloated, hungry, tired. That's it. So easier this time so far.

Well my morning sickness hasn't started yet. With the first 2.. Horrible morning sickness at 4w all the way through the entire pregnancies. Ohh.. And SUPER tired this time around. And not as much appetite.

erind228 · October 2013

My first two were very similar. I have a couple different symptoms this time. I've had a terrible taste in my mouth, am extremely tired and I am seriously cranky. I didn't have any morning sickness with the first two, I'm really hoping that doesn't decide to show up.

I had morning sickness the first time but I couldn't remember when it started/how long it lasted. (its been almost 5 years) This time I was thinking its not as bad- until today! I'm nauseous, hungry, but everything I smell or eat makes me feel worse. I guess MS started at 6 wks. Ugh. Def more bloated too-tummy already looks preggers!

I had the perfect pregnancy with DD. So far I'm just exhausted but it's early so we'll see!

RaeJ004 · October 2013

I'm not very far in yet, but I am 12957x more tired this time around. I would attribute most of it to chasing a toddler around though.

Also, DH says I'm not nearly as gassy as I was last time.... yet....

Savvy122 · October 2013

I'm only 6 weeks in, and I only found out I was pregnant at 5 weeks last time around... but so far, I'm experiencing all of the exact same symptoms: all-day queasiness (but no actual puking), major food aversions, super-human sense of smell that makes me even more nauseous, and complete exhaustion.

Last time, I started to feel human again right around 12 weeks so I'm hoping there is a light at the end of this tunnel.

I was like @fsumom. No sickness, no aversion, no craving, no swelling. If that happens again, I'll take it. So far so good!

KristaU831 · October 2013

I don't really remember. I had terrible indigestion with my daughter and it started pretty early. Still don't have that yet, but I don't remember exactly when it started last time.
I am tired just like last time maybe more so, and more aversions but my husband was already back in Iraq by the time I was this far along so I didn't cook anything gross anyway.

Bam4 · October 2013

So far it's the same as with DD. Nausea, ms, cramping, back pain ect... I am more tired this time though.

NoodleM · October 2013

Last time I had no symptoms until 8 ish weeks when I started feeling hungover some days, which was my version of morning sickness. I never threw up just gagged a few times. And that was it.

This time MS started a few days ago, and it's making me bitchy. So far I've figured out that eating too much or not enough makes me feel sick, as well as when I do heat on my neck for my physio. My boobs are incredibly sore and I have headaches in the morning and trouble sleeping.

chusum · October 2013

So far the same. I've never had a difficult 1st tri symptom wise. This one is no different. Just bloated & moody.

artroyer · October 2013

Last time I was only sick for 3 days and other than that just tired. I ended up with heartburn every single day but I don't remember when it started. This time just tired so far and getting heartburn now. So about the same so far

Swiftymomof3 · October 2013

7th pregnancy. It's not my worst (but still early so we will see just how sick i can get). My last pregnancy was horrible! I was so sick!!!!! This time I'm tired and nauseas with a bad taste in my mouth but able to function normally. My first pregnanu was by far the easiest.

jerseygirl612 · October 2013

I didn't have any noticeable symptoms with my son until 8 weeks besides fatigue. Same again so far- just very tired.

JNerd · October 2013

I have just the one, and I'm kinda praying that this pregnancy is the same as it was for him. I was super lucky - no morning sickness, little to no swelling, no real food aversions or crazy cravings. Life was pretty normal outside of some intense heartburn.

It seems to be going good thus far - no morning sickness or anything like that, but I know that it is still really early and things could change a lot very quickly.

Natali25 · October 2013

Thank you for all your input ladies. I appreciate it. I think it helps just hearing other ppl going through the same things. So far the ms has been under control with food and Sea Bands. Not sure if the bands work or if it's all in my head but hey whatever works right?! LOL
