What did you do differently second time around?

[~*Niadalla*~]

I've just been thinking, how similar this pregnancy has been to my last. A few things have been different (m/s is worse if that's actually possible), and I am probably slightly more relaxed, but I think I might go into the final 10 weeks a little differently.

What did you do differently the second/subsequent times around?
Were you more or less strict with diet?
Did you approach labour differently?
What things did you do differently to your last pregnancy?

this pregnancy has been similar to my last yet very different aswell
I am not as tired as I was in my first, but i'm still taking vitamin supplements and I stopped taking them after first trimester in my first pregnancy..
Im carrying the baby different and its sticking out the front alot more as opposed to the sides and around my hips.
My appetite hasn't changed much at all. but I do get some cravings for sweet food, when with my 1st pregnancy it was cravings for savoury and greasy stuff..
Ive been keeping busy at work and haven't really thought much about being pregnant this time round. I have just been letting it happen! in my 1st pregnancy i was a uni student and felt quite overwhelmed with the idea of being a mum!
I feel a lot more comfy and ready in a way, even though I don't have much prepared
I don't know, its been pretty cruisy actually, I cant believe how fast time is flying!

With #1 i was sick as a dog....#2 i was sick but not to bad...and this time #3 i was soooo lucky and only had slight nausea for about 9 weeks! I handled it much better each time and tried different reliefs til i found what worked for me. I also was to the book with #1 with vitamins and the do/dont eat foods.

I got less strict with my diet each time! But layed off on the custard tarts this time....bub must not like them..cos he never asked for them

Each time ive gone into the birth process differently and with new knowledge. I had a trainee doula with #3 and this time i have a qualified doula and so far theres been a huge difference and now i cant wait to have my oerfect birth i always dream of!

Ive not done anything differently between the 3 pregancies...other then this time i havent moved house. #1 i moved NSW to VIC at 34 weeks preg...#2 i moved at 28 weeks...and this time ive not gone anywhere LOL

All Iv'e done differently third time around, is less exercise (sorry I mean NO exercise) probably eaten slightly worse and better at the same time (more really healthy things like spinach smoothy, but less healthy things like sugar....). Maybe its' because i now have a toddler to look after, but I just don't find the time to look after me as much. Last time I did yoga, aqua aerobics and walking. This time none of the above....
