Did you find your pregnancies were similar, or completely different?
I am just wondering, I know all pregnancies are unique experiences, but am wondering if you parents have had similar reactions to you subsequent pregnancies.

Yes, some things were very similar. I never had morning sickness, but I was exhausted from day one. I got to be close to the same size with all of them. I also craved really spicy foods with them all, but I could not drink anything carbonated for about the first trimester without getting horrible belly aches, heartburn in my stomach. I also went into labor with the 3 children I share with my husband on my due date. My child by my ex was 6 weeks early. The differences was the way the baby would move inside me. They each seemed to like laying in different positions. I would get different aches and pains with each one. So, yes mine had alot of similarities, but a few difference as well.

Somethings are similar. Like how my belly felt once it started to stretch. I am pregnant with my second now and I know with this pregnancy, while I had a lot of the same symptoms, they have been stronger this time around. I had it good with my first baby...lol. This time I was nauseous all the time in the first three months and way more tired than the last time. The only thing that wasn't stronger was my breasts don't feel as tender as they did in my first pregnancy. They still hurt, but it comes and goes. My food aversions are different this time, too. I couldn't be in the same room when someone was eating something with garlic...and I'm of Italian descent and LOVE garlic. Last time it was fish that I steered clear of...and I love fish, too. It's funny what you find to be different, but there are a lot of similarities, too.

I have two wonderful boys and the pregnancies were different but not enormously different. I was less sick with my second pregnancy than with the first (still sick, just not as sick). I gained less weight the second time around. But with the second pregnancy I experienced a lot more back pain and had to wear one of those belly support braces all the time.

1st one- Boy- was sick only in the mornings for 3 months, then I enjoyed every minute of my pregnancy. ( only a 4 hour birth from contraction to baby)
2nd one- 21 weeks along ( girl) - i am still sick to thjis day! I faint all the time, i have a low weighing baby. I cant wait to get this over with I feel horrible most of the time.
So yes I say every pregnancy is different, but I think im so sick beacuse its a girl.

My last two were both girls and my pregnancies were almost the same. Sick non stop and just everything was the same. This one that I am pregnant with is nothing like my other to. I only get sick if I don't eat and I am really sleepy and feel like being really lazy all the time. I am hoping this one is a boy. And I also get numb spots on my back and belly. Its weird but I love it!

I'm pregnant with my second and it is different than the first - I had morning sickness with this one but not the last, I gained a ton of weight first time around but not with this one. First baby moved around a lot more than this one. Had really bad back ache with the first and so far nothing with second.

In some ways they were very similar and others completely different. But this time I got my boy, so naturally its different.
Good Luck

With my girls, their pregnancies were the same. Same type of cravings (fruits) and same pains. Weird. With my son and this one (we don't know until the 16) they are the same. I crave salty things and veggies. We think this one is a boy again. But between my girls and boy. Wow big difference.

I have three kids. The first one was the hardest. She was breech, and I had toxemia. Second one not too bad, but I gained a lot of weight. Third one, easy-almost like I wasn't even pregnant.
