This pregnancy compared to my last one ...

I'm almost in the third trimester of this pregnancy and feeling VERY different than I did with my first... They say boy pregnancies are different than girl pregnancies and I have to say I am believing it more and more.


Nausea - With Capri I was very sick, at about week 5 I started to feel the nausea wave already. Nothing would sit in my stomach, and I was throwing up every day, all day.

This time, around week 9-10 I was feeling slight waves of nausea, but I was not physically sick (sometimes I feel like it was more in my head thinking I was going to be sick)


Tiredness - This time around ONLY at the beginning was I tired but I have much more energy this time. Last pregnancy I wasn't able to get in more than a 30 min workout but this time I am able to get one full workout and sometimes two workouts all while chasing after my busy toddler.


Baby Moving - With Capri I started to feel her move around 5-6 months. This time I started feeling him move around 3-4 months and now that I am 7 months we can even see his movements!


Baby Bump - I remember my first pregnancy I was just watching to be like "when will I show?" I wasn't fully showing with Capri until I was about 4 months. With this baby around two months my pants were already super tight, and there was no way of hiding it! It's true what they say, baby number two you show right away.


Cravings - During my first pregnancy I remember wanting lots of FRUIT and I loved my Mr. Sub Spicy Chicken. This time around I wouldn't say I was craving anything really which was nice and I could continue to try and clean eat as much as I can!


Heartburn - I thought my last pregnancy heartburn was bad, but this one is OUT OF CONTROL. Even when I try and limit things that make you have heartburn, I noticed the heartburn is probably going to stay with me till the very end. ugh.


Headaches - With my first I never had a headache the entire pregnancy, this time I had headaches all throughout my first trimester.


From my experience, the first trimesters were pretty much the worst part from either with throwing up, headaches, or the tiredness.

The second trimester is a breeze though, and looking froward to seeing how my last trimester plays out!


Anyone else find their second pregnancies to be similar or different than the first?
