    I found my two to be pretty much the same- less ms the second time round, but not by much.

    But BH were much more painful. And after pains after labour were way worse.

    Agreeing with traveller- take time to enjoy. It just goes so much quicker the second time round!!

    def agree with this too - you also don't have time to obsess over it as much - I used to know how far along I was to the day with #1, whereas 2nd time, it was "uhm, i might be 23 or could be 24 weeks" It did slow down in the last trimester though, esp. once I hit 36wks and bub was well and truly engaged.

    In terms of ms, cravings, food dislikes, etc, it was pretty much the same - DH was convinced I was having a girl because of this. I did get movements earlier this time, and DH felt DS alot sooner, but I did have an anterior placenta with DD that could have stopped DH feeling sooner. No difference in BH's and no leaky boobs.

    this second time around...

    popped mega early

    flutters from 11 weeks, kicks and rolls from 12 weeks...and all of this with an anterior placenta ...but i was also a bit underweight when i fell pg due to ongoing recovery from illness last year...so maybe that was why i felt it??

    morning sickness

    painful BH from 18 weeks.

    so far that's about it LOL!

    but in a weird way i am really enjoying this pg so far. mebbe 'cause i know it is the last time???
