So I am about 10 weeks pregnant and breastfeeding my 19 month old, about 10-12 times over a 24 hour period.
When I was pregnant with him I felt awful for at least 16 weeks and would spend 20mins every morning dry retching, couldn't stomach anything but plain foods, had a huge appetite and cravings.
However, this time around if I went on symptoms alone I wouldn't have any clue at all that I am pregnant. Ive had no symptoms, no morning sickness.
I know all pregnancies are different and I have read on Kellymom that often nursing with decrease the severity of morning sickness, but I just wanted to be reassured by real life woman that may have had a similar experience.
So come on ladies, put my mind at ease, please!!
I started a thread about this early this pregnancy. I had exactly the same. With DD I felt AWFUL 24/7, with this one, I did have the occasional vomit when I ate something s/he disapproved of, but it was just "oh, I shouldn't have eaten that - hurl - oh, I feel better now" SO much better an experience!
DH commented that my body was probably now used to being "drugged up" on hormones from BF that it wasn't such a huge shock to the system to get pg hormones going round as it was last time.
I'm now getting a good kicking from a 33-week fetus, so the baby was fine regardless of the lack of MS. Enjoy it!!
