every pregnancy is different...

I have been pregnant twice and very close together may I add...my boys are 55 weeks apart...yeah I know!! However, both of my pregnancies were very similar, I never had morning sickness with either one, I gained about the same amount of weight, I had the same high blood pressure, I had the same swelling, and I actually carried them the same too. The only difference is that one was bigger than the other and how they moved. My oldest had the hiccups at least 4 times a day everyday for like 10 weeks, and my youngest moved all the time, he was alien baby trying to break free. I know that both my sisters have had more than two kids each and all of their pregnancies have been completely different, so it really is up in the air whether or not they will be the same or not.

I was sick from day one when I was pregnant with both my children! With the first I kept NOTHING down for the whole pregnancy . learnt what was more pleasant to be sick with! lol I was in hospital for MONTHS before being induced a month early. With my second I was again very sick but I did keep some foods down and ended up not having to stay in hospital, I was again induced but this time I was 2 weeks overdue! So they weren't exactly opposite but one was born as soon as they felt it was safe to induce him and the other as late as they felt it was to leave him! xxx

Me first one I wasnt sick at all, my second one I was so sick the first three months, I couldnt drink or eat.

I found with my pregnancies they were a bit different. If I was carrying a boy, I had morning sickness through the whole pregnancy and high blood pressure. When I was carrying a girl I had no morning sickness, my blood pressure stayed normal and I just didn't have any trouble throughout the pregnancy.

It wouldn't be uncommon at all for your first two to be similar and your third to be utterly different. Or any two pregnancies to be utterly different for the same women. I'm a midwifery student, and I came up with this theory this past year. It's just a casual observation I have made & I'm going to keep paying attention to see if there is any validity to it. Basically- my 2nd & 3rd pregnancies were the most similar to each other. My 2nd child is a girl, my 3rd is a boy; so that can't be a factor. But my 2nd & 3rd were both born in the first week of summer/conceived in the month of September. I'm expecting now, and this pregnancy is most like my first- not the same, but more like his than the other two. My eldest was born in January & this baby is due at the end of October/beginning of November. Not quite as close as the two middle kids, but same ball park time of year. I've compared notes with a couple of friends who happen to have kids born at the same time of year, and when they thought about it they remembered similarities too. Just a theory, but perhaps seasons/weather plays part in what discomforts we experience.

Yes it is true that every pregnancy is different,even I have heard that if you are having a boy your feeling will be different and in girl it will change.Nausea is the first fact of pregnancy,some stays nauseous for about 3 or 4 months some doesn't feel it at all and some have it for whole 9 months.When I was pregnant,I had this feeling for 3 months and after 5th month I start having the same feeling which remains for couple of days.I have also seen some women who doesn't feel nauseous at all in whole 9 months,well Lucky them.They says that if you have a boy then you feel more nauseous whereas if you are carrying a girl then you will feel to eat more more and more.

I am pregnant with my 2nd child and my pregancies have been completely different. With my son I was nauseaus all the time. I just felt bad and tired. I gained about 35 lbs. I was on bed rest from month 5 until the end. I had high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. I was completely miserable. It seemed to last forever. With this pregnancy I feel great. I have not been tired. I have not felt sick at all. My blood pressure is great. I am in my 6th month and I have gained 10 lbs. I don't even feel pregnant. I am not on bed rest. I am still working and the time is passing by so fast. I am getting more and more excited as time passes. I cannot believe how these 2 pregnancies have been like night and day.

Yep most definitely! I had terrible morning sickness with my first but none at all with my second. All three of my pregnancies have been very different.

well in my case yes my first pregnancy (my son)i had no morning sickness at all it was a pleasant pregnancy with my second (my daughter) i was sick from very early on and it was constant and with this pregnancy imsick off and on so yes i guess every pregnancy is different and may even be VERY different. im experiencing that once again

This is so true Every Pregnancy is different!!!!! When I started having my children all 7 of them I had No morning sickness what so ever and no problems or signs expect for the blood test and growth, This time around with baby #8 I was sicker than a dog for about 4 months.....It is amazing how your body reacts differently every time. You will have to keep me posted with the up coming news =) Best of Luck Stacy

I have 4 kids and all 4 were completely different! My 1st I was sick the whole pregnancy. If I ate, it all came back up right after. Hubby thought it was his cooking...lol My 2nd I was only sick for the 1st 3 months and it stopped. My 3rd I was sick for a month and had alot of low abdominal cramping. My 4th I was sick about 1/2 of the pregnancy had hard time walking due to back pain. They do vary at times! It would be nice if we could predict how we were going to be when pregnant.

I've been around so many pregnant women, and I can say one thing that they all have in common. They're moody! So judging from that, I need convincing myself that there pregnacies can be opposite from one another.
