How did your pregnancies/babies compare?

I am 14 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby (my 1st son is 17 months old). So far, the pregnancies have been similar expect I believe I had morning sickness worse this time around and this time I am craving sweet things which I did not do with my son. My son was literally the perfect baby for me. Slept well, happy, content, joyful, all that good stuff. I always hear how each baby is so different and just wondering how your pregnancies/babies were the same or different. I think I am mentally preparing myself for a baby that will be completely different from my son.

So, how were pregnancies different/same and did you have boys or girls. And then in the first few months how were they the same/different? Feel free to share any stories, I enjoy reading them.

    Hey, well this is my second baby. My first is a girl and she is almost 4. i am 27 weeks pregnant with a boy. It is soooo different! when i got pregnant with my daughter, the pregnancy was awesome! i had no pain, nausea, headaches, Nothing!!! it was like if i wasnt even pregnant! labor lasted 12 hours but it was sooo easy...it just took a lot of time to get dialated, oh and pushing? i only pushed like 3 times and she was out! so the thought of getting pregnant again didnt bother me at all. Now that im pregnant again, im Miserable!! i started throwing up since day 1...and it got worse...till this day i still have bad nausea...lots of swelling and horrible back pain!! im sooo not looking foward to labor!!! im very scared..i feel like this is my first baby!!!

    My 2 pregnancies have been close to equal - such a lot in order that I was once satisfied my moment was once a boy, like the primary - I was once fallacious! My labours have been very equivalent too, apart from the truth that first time round, my waters broke earlier than I went into labour - moment time, the contractions began first and I was once on no account even mindful of my waters going. Second toddlers continuously look to be less difficult - I consider that is in most cases all the way down to the truth that you understand what you are doing this time and do not transmit that "I have NO suggestion what I'm doing" anxiousness on your little one and they are extra at ease consequently.

    Well i had my first baby 10 months ago. I remember having horrible headaches, puking and i was more emotional with him.

    I'm almost 16 weeks pregnant and i barely have any symptoms. I just can eat and not feel sick anymore which is great!!! With my first i felt sick if i ate certain things this one im fine. Although with this baby if i smell something and it doesnt smell right to me i feel so sick. With my first i didnt have that. You see each baby and pregnancy is differnt.

    ENJOY!

    Good luck
