My DS (#1) was 2.75" taller than DD (#2) though! Other than that it was similar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2425421 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 01:27:21 +0000 HLK208 2425421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a basketball bump with DS. I carried very low and pretty wide with both girls. Its too soon to tell with this baby (9 weeks) but but the end of the day, the bump I have isn't wide or low yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2425419 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 01:07:55 +0000 birdofafeather 2425419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>similarly, but DD1 was higher and DD2 was lower, so my aches and pains were different! also, i didn't get a chubby face with DD2 like i did with DD1! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2422235 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 15:04:41 +0000 ValentineMommy 2422235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was much bigger with DS2....which is funny because I felt sick the entire time and he was almost 2 pounds smaller than his older brother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421976 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:40:16 +0000 MrsB2012 2421976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had two girls and the bump height and shape was pretty identical. However, I grew wayyyy quicker the second time, and was a lot bigger up until .. 30 weeks probably? Then it evened out by the end. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421800 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 12:39:26 +0000 Ree723 2421800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two girls so far and carried them exactly the same all the way throughout. I took ages to show both times (well past 20 weeks) and carried ridiculously high until I was pretty much in established labour.</p> <p>With this baby, at 17 weeks now, it seems to be a lower bump than my previous two - but that could be due to my abdominal muscles not being as tight as they were the first two times around. Still a long to go until we find out what this one is but my instinct says boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421778 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 12:33:59 +0000 Truth Bombs 2421778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of each and I was higher and rounder with my boy but I think that was more that he was my second. This pic is at 36 weeks with each of them. </p> [attach=6015/16/o0ye4n.600x407.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421769 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 12:24:00 +0000 cascademom 2421769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two boys, carried them both about the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421766 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 12:18:55 +0000 Anagram 2421766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was normal the first time and a house the second time.

A little rounder, higher, and overall smaller with DD, but all round belly with both. Similar weight gain with both, too (within 3lbs). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421657 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:08:23 +0000 Foodnerd81 2421657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: same- I got big way faster with my second, but by the end I think they were pretty similar. I gained more with dd2 but started it lighter, so I actually ended up weighing the exact same at delivery. I may have carried a little lower though- probably because I had no ab muscles! </p> <p>Funny enough, though I thought I looked about the same, I had everyone tell me it was a boy the first time (wrong) and a girl the second time (right). Both girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421654 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:07:37 +0000 lilyann 2421654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had 2 boys and think I carried about the same! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421643 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:06:15 +0000 hilsy85 2421643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely gained more weight/was wider in the hips and thighs with LO2 (DD) than with DS. Although that might have just been due to being less active too! :) My bump itself was similar both times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421640 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:05:43 +0000 hellobeeboston 2421640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two boys, I think I carried exactly the same for both! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-two-or-more-kids#post-2421635 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:05:05 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2421635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was MUCH bigger the 2nd time up to about 6 months, and then it sort of evened out.

Did it differ based on their sex? </p> <p>I have two boys, carried similarly both times, although maybe a bit higher and more rounder the second time around :) </p>
