My first trimester for LO 1 went fast but the rest of my pregnancy just dragged. A week of bed rest in my second tri and going 41 +2 weeks didn't help!
Pregnancy 2 went really fast with the exception of weeks 33-36 when I had a perma cold and lots of snissing!

LO1 - super slow, it was like I was counting the days!
LO2 - too fast! I could barely keep track of the weeks and then she came unexpectedly just after 37 weeks, so I kind of felt "cheated" that I didn't get to bask in my last few weeks of pregnancy like I had planned!

I feel like with #1 it went by at a normal pace.. not too fast not too slow.
With this one.. it's flown by so fast! I cannot believe I'm 29 weeks, what the heck?!

My first pregnancy went slowly (plus induced 10 days past my due date) but pregnancy#2 is flying by and I can't believe I'm this far along already.

Some days I feel like it is going fast and then other days I get really excited for baby and it feels like it is dragging! It feels a lot faster than TTC did though.

Pregnancy went super slow until around 20 weeks - the morning sickness seemed never ending! The second half of the pregnancy flew by though!

So slow. I don't remember a time when I ever said "This is going by so fast!" Haha

My first one went by super sloooowly. My second was so fast, it was unbelievable. And that's saying a lot since I went to 41+6!

At times I feel like it's slow but looking back it really flew by!

This second pregnancy is zipping along nicely. I think it helps that I have a toddler to focus on and I'm torn between being in a rush to meet her and wanting to really drink up this time I have to focus on my baby boy. My first pregnancy felt so slow especially at the end. It was hard to wait to get the baby out of my belly and into my arms!

So slow. Having my back constantly hurt is a brutal reminder of how long i have to go!

My first pregnancy went slow, i was so excited.
This one is going fast, but ask me again in my last month, I'm sure my story will change 
i feel so unprepared for this one, i need to get on the nursery and buying stuff!

It felt like the first one went by really fast. But for some reason, even though I am never really sure how many weeks along I am, this one feels really slow. Maybe I just want this one to speed up so I can stop being pregnant and start taking care of two kids already!

Both! The time between my BFP (10 DPO) and my first OB appointment (4 weeks later) was SO slow. I swear each day felt like a week! Then waiting to tell my family felt like it took ages (10 weeks). From 10-30 weeks, time moved along at a decent pace. The last 10 weeks (especially the last 2-3) took forever! I assume a second pregnancy will feel faster as I have my son to keep me busy....although as he's only 12 days old it will be a while;-).

Both went by fast! I think it had something to do with having N at 37 weeks on the dot and having E at 35 weeks 3(or 4) days depending on who's counting. So I never quite got to uncomfortable pregnant.

First one was pretty slow.
Second one was fast until 33 weeks when I went off work and it turned into the summer of insomnia. Every day feels like 2 when you're up most of the night and then put in a full day.
Both pregnancies I went over - first one was 41+1 & second was 40+6. Both times it was pure torture.

I'm 21 weeks in, and it seems like since around week 16 things have been going incredibly fast!

it was much slower with my first. I was on bed rest from 20 weeks until I delivered, which meant no job and a lot of Netflix. It was torture.
With my second, I was busy chasing around a toddler already, and she came 8 days early so I feel like it went a lot faster.

Not fast, not excruciatingly slow. I definitely tracked the days and knew exactly how big she was in relation to fruit/veg sizes 
I could have gone without the nauseousness, carpal tunnel, and pelvic floor muscle pain, but overall it was a healthy pregnancy, so I have no real complaints.

@SugarplumsMom: I forgot about my carpal tunnel for my first pregnancy....so painful!
