Comparing a First and Second Pregnancy
First and second pregnancies can be very different. For starters, your first pregnancy is a constant focus. You take time to take maternity photos and can tell people exactly how far along you are. You think about it often and avoid things like caffeine. Also, you might find yourself in maternity clothes sooner the second time. You’re also more likely to have different concerns and fears.
Key Takeaways:
- Last year at this time I was entering my third trimester and while I’m happy Chip is now on the outside, it’s still fun to look back on my pregnancy with him.
- The biggest difference for me was already having a little one and not being able to focus as much on caring for myself.
- I also had way more time to obsess and plan during my first pregnancy than during my second one, and although I had similar symptoms for the most part, they still felt very different.
“First pregnancy you think about being pregnant daily; second pregnancy you forget you’re actually pregnant at least once a day.”
