Did anyone else have a totally different second pregnancy to their first?
I definitely don't feel as sick this time around -though I've had a few rough moments, I feel way more tired, a little more achy, but my boobs haven't stayed anywhere near as tender as they first did.

I guess loss of symptoms for me has always equaled miscarriage but I had a private scan last week and saw a heartbeat which I'm trying to cling on to.

I just wondered if anyone else had found the same? TIA

My first two pregnancies were almost identical, third was completely different, and this fourth one appears to going it's own way too.

I'm the same as you.
This is my 2nd, currently 9+3, but hardly have any symptoms, whereas with my DD I was vomiting every day, having several nose bleeds a week and lots of other things. I am more tired than I was before getting pregnant, so I'm clinging on to that.
I do spend a lot of time googling whether it's poss to have a mc (which I've never had) and not know! Would really appreciate confirmation of heart beat, but my appt isn't till 2 August. Had my first midwife phone call yesterday and she had no concerns about it. I can't really afford private scan, but all I need is confirmation of heart beat because I am constantly worrying something is not right down there.

I am 24+2 with my second, I had a girl first time and I had “morning” sickness from weeks 5-41 😂 it was horrendous, I was sick all the time - driving, at work, in bed.
I was so convinced that I was having a boy this time as I was only sick for a few weeks but it was a girl on the 20 week scan!
I am still knackered and running around after a toddler doesn’t help but aside from reflux this pregnancy is much easier.

My first two pregnancies were plain sailing for me, not much sickness at all very easy but identical in terms of symptoms, both boys
I'm 8 weeks with no 3 and I've been sick to my stomach for about 3 weeks but I'm prepping myself for another boy 😅
The tiredness is insane!!

They say every pregnancy is different and I’d have to agree for me!! DC1 girl I was so sick weeks 6-15 but had a textbook easy pregnancy but messy delivery. This time round with DC2 no sickness but a high risk pregnancy with low Papp-a and high screening results. Also much more uncomfortable this time round. This one is a boy! X

Thank you so much everyone, these replies have made me feel better, and weirdly enough the nausea started up again a little earlier so maybe I'll just have better days than others this time around 🤞🏻
Maybe second pregnancies just don't give you the same time to dwell given that you're always chasing round after your other one (or two!)

@IAmWomxxnHearMeRoar I really hope that everything will be ok with you, fwiw you'd def know if you miscarried, it's undeniable. Sending a very unmusnet hug to you Thanks
