How was your second pregnancy different from your first?

| I am 27 weeks along and I feel like this pregnancy is just flying by. Yes, I have experienced discomforts but they have been minor so far. I know that the last 6 weeks is always the hardest but I am wondering if others found the second pregnancy easier than the first overall (minus the added exhaustion of chasing after a toddler). |

| My first pregnancy was great. Second was the complete opposite. First time, I was overdue. The second time I was put on bedrest for 2 months and still delivered 11 wks premature. You just never know...no two pregnancies are alike. But I will say RECOVERY from the second was a million times faster than the first. I didn't even need painkillers and was walking around the next day (the first time I was in severe pain and it took weeks to walk normal again). Both times I had a C-section. |

I am 26 weeks with #2, and I have found I worry much less about things this go around....I guess I chalk that up to experience and being too busy chasing after my 20 month old. And I am SUPER tired this time, even in 2nd tri...that I definitely chalk up to DD running everywhere.
Good luck! |
