Different symptoms in different pregnancies

Just wondered if anyone has any experience to share?

I have been pregnant twice - one DD and one MC at 13 weeks. I had different early symptoms (as in, before a BFP) both times. With DD - very strong (particularly very sore boobs), but with the baby we lost, not much at all.

As anyone had different early symptoms in two or more pregnancies that have gone on to be healthy???

With DD I had very strong implantation pains, I felt a bit nauseous around 14 weeks and threw up a coupe of times

I gave birth to twins last week and didn't have a single symptom with them - literally nothing - only indication that things were progressing ok was getting a bump around 9 weeks pregnant

I've had strong symptoms with all mine but nothing with the one I lost Sad

With first I had lots of symptoms, with second I had no symptoms and currently 39 weeks so you can have healthy pregnancies with no symptoms

Super sense of smell with all 4 pregnancies. Slight nausea with my boys, felt horrendous with the one I lost and constantly hungover feeling til 15wks with my current pregnancy, a girl. Both boy pregnancies a little heartburn at the end but otherwise really easy, straightforward pregnancies. Baby girl horrendous heartburn as soon as the nausea passed, constipation all the way through, insomnia, food aversions that seemed to last ages. This pregnancy has been totally different but I don't know whether its down to her being a girl or a different partner.
She's also been super wiggly compared to her brothers x

In my first pregnancy I had extremely sore breasts from 9dpo and I was always very cold. The pregnancy ended in a mmc.

In my second pregnancy with my now dd I was always roasting hot and only had very mildly sore breasts.

With dd I had a super strong sense of small and was constantly nauseous and dizzy. I craved sweet foods and ate a lot of tangerines. I would get full quickly. My skin also glowed. With ds I was sick more often than with dd but in the evenings rather than the mornings. I craved, salty, spicy food and was constantly hungry. I looked awful. I felt very dizzy in my first trimester with dd and ds.

With my current pregnancy (7 weeks) I am constantly nauseous but have not been sick yet. I crave salty, spicy food. Luckily I have not been dizzy so far. I also had some spots last week which is so unlike me, o didn't even get spots when I was a teenager. As I have had such a mix of symptoms this time I have no idea if it is a boy or girl.

I have a super strong sense of smell again and for the very first time sensitive boobs.

My sickness was different with both my DC; with my first I felt sick all day but was rarely sick whereas sigh my second I was sick most mornings but it went by mid morning. I craved dairy products with my first but could barely drink milk in tea with my second.

With DS1 I had literally no symptoms at all except sore nipples for a few weeks. With DS2 (currently 19 weeks pregnant) I was so sick in the first trimester.

I had extreme nausea with both of my pregnancies (both boys) but it was a different kind in each one.

DC1 I craved carbs and couldn't stop eating. I gained 30kg.
DC2 I couldn't face food at all for the first 20 weeks and lost a lot of weight.

Now 8 weeks with DC3 and it's exactly the same as with DC1.

DS - developed a sweet tooth and an endless appetitive. Often woke with excruciating leg cramps. Minimal nausea.

This pregnancy (15 weeks) I had sickness in first trimester, particularly when I ate spicy food. My fatigue was off the scale and in the evenings I have the most itchy skin around my boobs, back and tummy. It's driving me mad!

Thanks everyone for sharing. This is reassuring.
