DD / DS pregnancies, were they very different?

Just wondering as I thought the side-effects were bad with dd, but this time round, even though I'm only in the very early stages, I feel a hundred times more tired and nauseous than before, which leads me to think I'm having a ds this time.
Is this total nonsense?

Didn't feel sick at all with 2 DSs

Didnt feel sick with ds or dd but did feel horrendously tired second time round, which I think was due to already having a ds around the house and nothing else. Sorry.

Pretty much the same, except obvious effects of having a 13 month old bombing about the house. made me tireder but also more nauseous as hard to eat.

my mw said would be tired due to small gap between pg. does this apply?

but you have anyway a 1/2 chance of a dd if thats what you want. thjose are good betting odds!

I had a pretty easy time of it first time round - DS1

2nd time around felt like absolute sh*te for the first few months............DS2

So two totally different pg's and both boys.

My first 2 pregnancies were almost identical, bleeding at same stage, no sickness and I have a dd and a ds. This 3rd pg has been very different to the others, morning sickness, no bleeding - so god knows what I am carrying, wondering if its human

That blows my theory out of the water then. So I'm just unlucky? I was hoping I could blame the boy in my belly, but I could just as easily be having a girl.
I do have a short gap, dd is 9mo at the moment and will be 16m when db is born. So I must get used to the fatigue!

had two different pregnancies and had two dds. First time round - morning sickness and it was morning - one puke when I got up and all fine for the day. Second time round it was all day sickness where once my blood sugar dipped needed to eat or I would be sick.
