Jealous of all you first timers...

It is SUCH a magical time! Try your best to enjoy as much of the experience as you can!

Obviously I can't speak for all the other second + time mommas, but for me...nothing compares to the first!

    The first is the best because you can sleep and relax as much as you want. Now with #2, taking care of DS is a struggle sometimes because all I want to do when I get home from work is lay in bed and watch TV!

    It is very exciting, but a little stressful not knowing what to expect.

    I agree. I think this pregnancy is going to be harder because I will be chasing around my 2 yr old!

    In a way it is kind of better to not know what to expect. I'm nervous because I do know what to expect (if this pregnancy is anything like my first)

    Yes, it's a bit stressful not knowing if a certain symptom/feeling (or lack of) is normal, because I haven't experienced this before.  I have so many friends who have suffered losses that it is really hard to not worry about the worst.  I need to figure out how to change my nervous mindset asap!

    I wish I could still nap/sleep-in too Ash!  I'm hoping that by 3rd tri my DH will take pity on me on the weekends and let me get a little bit of a sleep-in (not sure if DD will allow it though!).

    January Bride, even though we've been through this before we still get nervous about symtoms etc. because every pregnancy is different.  I'm having symptoms (some spotting last week and really tender boobs) that I didn't have last go round.

    Oh boy, you ladies are starting to scare me a little.  I don't mean to say I'm any more stressed than anyone, especially you moms with little ones running around, just that it's hard not knowing if something is normal or not.

    I am liking being pregnant this time better, so far (so for what? a few days, LOL!) I have a better understanding of what is going on, I am imagining LO as a big brother (AHHH! So cute!) and it isn't taking over my ever single thought the way my first pregnancy did. I was so nervous and anxious, especially because we lost my first pregnancy. This time, I am certain things will be okay, and if they aren't, I know we will "deal with it" and move forward.

    Melb (& all), in my experience with my doc, just about every single symptom you have during pregnancy is considered "normal." Carpal tunnel, tooth pain/sensitivity, diarrhea, constipation, vision changes, happiness, sadness, shortness of breath, cough, decreased hearing, skin tags...any/every concern I brought up at my appointments was written off as normal during pregnancy. I swear, I could have told my doc I was growing a 6th toe on my left foot & she would have told me it was to be expected.

    I slept so much with my first pregnancy that my little brother (who was living with DH and I at the time) called my mom and told her that I was going to turn into a fat blob because all I did was sleep and eat lol.  He failed to mention that I puked all the time as well.  I lost 20 pounds during the first trimester with DD and 15 with DS from morning sickness.  It's hard to throw up with a toddler in the bathroom analyzing your vomit.  Napping would be awesome.

    The one upside of being 2nd time mom is you have a wonderful distraction to get you through the next 9 months or so.  The wait KILLED me with my first!
