Do you feel worse with each pregnancy? Because I do! My first was a breeze (a boy), I loved being pregnant. My 2nd (also a boy) I felt a little gaggish sometimes but besides that I loved being pregnant again. This time, it's a girl...so not sure if it's more a factor of carrying a girl or bc this is round 3...I feel horrible. I could crawl out of my skin. I was so sick the first trimester. I am so emotional and my mood swings are horrible! I feel enormous. I'm uncomfortable, crampy...it hurts when she kicks sometimes! My round ligament pain up and down my belly is horrible if I'm touched wrong, and there has been a sleu of other nerve-racking things going on. Now, I have possible mild polyhydraminos which they are checking up on in another four weeks. I feel like I'm falling apart!! Any other moms on their 3rd+ pregnancy having a significantly more difficult time?
Re: 3rd time or more moms
This one.... Sick every day for 3 months. Tired. Spotting (was put on pelvic rest til 16 weeks), major aches, anterior placenta for the first time so movement was later than I was used to. It's all been so much more dramatic this time! My DH said "shouldn't your body be used to all this now?" Hmm well yah you'd think.
What happened to "third times a charm..."
I joke with my husband that if we were to have one more, I just might be the cute happy pregnant person I always wanted to be.
Dramatic is the best way to describe it!!
