Is anyone on there second time round?

Question

this is my second pregnancy, I feel so different this time, I'm extremely tired all the time and continuously bloated and feeling sicky most days, the last time I didn't start to show until I was 5 months at least, I'm now only 6 weeks and already you can tell I have very small bump... did anyone else start showing early on there second time?

Answer 1

hi im seven weeks gone at the moment with my second and i know exactly what you are going through i have not actually put on weight but i a have a small bump already i spoke to a doctor about it when i was booked in and they said that it is normal for a second pregnancy to show sooner because your body already knows what it is doing so your muscles are already prepaired for the stretching and growing that it has to do so it just pops back out again. He also said that the tired ness is likely to be simply because you are doing more that you did when you were pregnant with your first one as you are now running around after a child which is tiring by its self and then your also growing a small baby at the same time both of which take a lot of energy but it will all be worth it in the end. congratulations and hope it all goes smoothly for you

Answer 3

Hello,

I was the same. I am 10weeks. I thought I was showing really early this time, but was just bloated. It went down a little, but a bump is still there. It's just starting to grow a little more now. And the first time, I wasn't nearly as tired as I am with this one, although, I do have a baby to look after this time. Lol.

And this time I am only getting my "morning" sickness after 4pm.

Good luck

Answer 4

I am not pregnant right now, but I will tell you that with my first pregnancy I was losing weight for the first 5 and a half months- and didn't beging to gain until my sixth month.  With my second pregnancy, I felt completely different and I started showing immediately.  It seemed like as soon as my test showed up positive, I started popping out.  Every pregnancy is different.  Good luck and congratulations!

Answer 6

I'm on my second and this time is so much different. It's been a while, (my daughter is 7) and this time I have twins, but there are some major differences. I had morning sickness for 4 months with my daughter and only 3 weeks this time. I got way bigger, faster and I'm feeling intense pressure and tightness this time. I've already been to labor & delivery for that and they said it was fine. I started having a hard time buttoning my pants right away, about 5 weeks and started having back pain too. Riding my horse was uncomfortable in front this time and with my first pregnancy, I rode until 5 months. Everyone tells me they start showing earlier with each pregnancy. I also hear that each pregnancy is different. That definately seems to be the case. Good luck to you.

Answer 7

This is my second pregnancy. I am about 9 weeks along and already it's a better pregnancy than my first. MY firtst i couldn't eat meat (throughout the entire prenancy) I was sick all the time and so very tired.  This one I am more active than I have been in a long while.

Answer 8

My second pregnancy was much different than my first.  I was definately more tired than the first time.  Maybe that was because I already had a child to chase around.  I was much bigger as well.  While I gained the same amount of weight, my stomach was much larger the second time.  By six months people would constantly comment that it looked like I was going to have the baby any day.  Note, My first child weight 6lbs 8oz.  My second weight 9lbs. 3oz.

Answer 9

this is my sec pregnancy, i'm 14 weeks and i also have a 3yr old. i didn't get morning sickness this time, just like last time=)  my sense of smell is all outta wack. and i am way more moody....which i try not to be but cant help it. i haven't felt the baby move yet but hopefully i will soon, since they say you can feel you baby move earlier the sec time around.

Answer 10

Hi, I am on my second pregnancy as well and I am 22 weeks. I started showing around 20 weeks and just woke up with a belly! This pregnancy has been different for me as well, but a blessing because I didn't have morning sickness yay! All your tiredness and fatigue should pass once you hit the second trimester. Good luck & hang in there! :)

Answer 11

You sound like me! I feel exactly the same way! I was showing very early on this time from about 8-10 weeks. I have also been very very tired all the way through. I'm 37 weeks now and will be glad when it's all over as I'm not doing this again!!!!

Answer 12

This is my 3rd, I found i was showing earlier with my second(8weeks) & even earlier with my 3rd (12 weeks)!

I have been more tired each time but i think that might have something to do with having 2 young babies to look after this time too (20mths & 8mths)!

Maybe you are getting different symptons because its a different s*x!?! Congratulations xx

Answer 13

Hi it could be that you are having a different s*x of baby this time, you sound like you are bloated you wont be showing yet a 6 weeks even I know this and im only expecting my first lol the uterus doesnt come out from beneath the pubic bone yet I dont think.

I was bloated everywhere even before I new I was expecting I couldnt get into any jeans and I hadnt put on any weight I had a big tummy and butt and thighs lol, I also felt sick all day and had to sleep as soon as I was up in the morning lol,

I am 38 weeks with a boy

Answer 14

Thisis my 3rd time round &  it's kicking my butt much worse than the previous two. Yes you tend to show sooner with each one. I am more tired this time around than I ever thought I could be. lol  

Answer 15

This is my 2nd. During my first, I didn't start showing until about 6 months, this time I started showing around 2 months. It seems like this pregnancy is alot harder than my last. I feel sicker this time and alot more tired!
