My morning sickness with ds1 and 2 was nausea and food aversions with dd I was a lot worse, sick several times a day, I also noticed the sickness got worse in waves every 4 weeks, so it would settle down a bit then peak, this happened all throughout my pregnancy.

None with DS and a bit with DD

None at all with DS, severe hyperemisis with DD.

My midwife said she often sees women react differently when carrying one sec or the other, but didn't know of any scientific evidence for it.

Sick and nauseous with dd. Felt a bit off colour once with ds.

Ds came first.

I had horrendous morning sickness with both DD and DS (if I was being picky I'd say slightly worse with dd). Currently pg with another boy and had no vomiting just nausea. For me it didn't make any difference whether it was a girl or boy but I know a lot if people who had it bad with girls.

19 weeks pregnant with first baby (girl) and was incredibly nauseous from about 6-16 weeks. Probably only actually threw up about ten times though, but every time it was very sudden and unexpected, a couple in public places Blush awful!

In my case yes but in not sure if theres any factual reason for this.

Pregnancy #1 was a boy and I was sick most nights in the first trimester but fine otherwise.

Pregnancy #2 was a girl and I ended up with travel sickness, constant nausea and hyperemesis basically stemming from conception until she was born (literally puking on the maternity ward then disappeared when I was holding her).

I had severe sickness with my ds which lasted until I gave birth. Currently 9+5 and bad sickness again although I don't think it's quite as bad as the first.

I had HG with DS. Currently pregnant with baby 2 and (touch wood) much less sick. Everybody keeps telling me that it must be a girl this time. TBH I don't think it makes any difference.

I didn't have any morning sickness at all, in fact barely any symptoms and I had a girl

A nurse told me a change in gender can cause stronger morning sickness. I don't know if that's true or not though.

Did with me

Dd I had hypermesis, was sick up to 20 times a day, hospitalised with dehydration 4 times and felt absolutely rotten for 16 weeks.

With Ds I was sick once because I ate something I didn't really want, felt sick a few times but never felt like I did with Dd

Horrendous, all consuming sickness with DD (second baby), hardly anything with DS.

If DD has been my first, I wouldn't have had anymore DC!

We'd pretty much decided not to have any more children because of horrific DS pregnancy. DH is delighted with this accidental second pregnancy because he knew there was no way it'd have happened on purpose! I'm still coming to terms with it tbh...

First : morning sickness - dd
Second: hyperemeisis - ds
Third: hyperemesis - dd

The sickness was waaaay worse with ds. The feeling sick was worse with dd

I had horrendous ms in the first trimester and I'm having a boy. Everyone thought it was a girl as I felt so sick, but my friends with one of each all had different experiences.
