Mamas of 2 or more...are your symptoms different this time around?

ekgray82 · September 2015

I had my 1st LO in May 2014...I had all day sickness basically from 6 weeks until 6 months, and basically something or other until giving birth. This time around I'm tired and have some nausea but it's nothing nearly as bad as my first. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow. Wondering if this could mean a different sex this time around (I know it's not a sure thing). Any other mamas notice different symptoms this time around? I'm definitely not complaining, just makes me worry a little. My first appt is tomorrow! Yay!

Things are pretty much the same this time around. I'm one of the lucky ones who don't get sick! (FX) probably having another girl lol

My first two I had nausea a lot, but only got sick 1 or 2 times. This time it's still too early for me to tell (I am due at the end of May)

My first one I had nausea and got sick all the time. I felt totally better after getting sick. I knew it was over at least for that bit. My second one I had more of a gagging nausea. I felt that was worse because I never felt like it was over. Both are boys.

This time I haven't had any nausea yet, but it's still early.

Still early but with my first, I was already seriously bloated by now. No issues with that at all this time. I am having some exhaustion and some nausea but nothing consistent. With DD, it was consistent. I also didn't have the insomnia with her like I am with this one. Or the acne. I finally had my face mostly clear...then I got pregnant. The other difference is my emotions. I was fairly level with DD. With this one, it's like I have split personalities.

I had very mild symptoms with my ds. I think I gagged one or two times but that was it. With my dd, I was pretty sick for a few weeks with headaches and nausea. It's still early this time (5+ weeks) so I'm not sure what to expect.

At this point in my pregnancy with DD I had already been to the ER once with dehydration from puking so much. I haven't puked once yet this time. I definitely have all day nausea but I will gladly take this over puking 24/7!

Also like PP said, with DD I didn't have any crazy emotions other than crying more than usual. This time around I'm ready to rip someone's head off.

I'm only four weeks and some change right now, but at this point with DD I was already feeling sick all day, every day. I've had a couple nauseous moments but it's not as bad yet. I have multitudes of pimples and didn't last time. It's lovely.

I am 5 weeks today, and I have had more cramping this time around, the nurse said its normal and my to compare the two pregnancies, but it's hard not to!

Comparing weekly bump pictures - I'm looking the same way as last time (bloated & then back to normal).
Comparing symptoms - I don't really remember exactly how I was feeling this early on, but I am surprised by my good energy level this time around considering I am running after a toddler.
