Just like the title says, if you experienced morning sickness (not just occasional queasiness) with one pregnancy, did you experience it with all your pregnancies?
I had pretty terrible morning sickness with LO and am hoping that it is possible to not have it again.

yes but it was different (not as bad with #2!).
With my first I was sick for the first 20 weeks, with some days where I couldn't hold down water and vomiting daily. It came back near the end.
With my second I was nauseous until maybe 16 weeks, and from week 8-12 I threw up daily, but only really felt sick for a few hours in the afternoon.

I can't vote because my situation was a little different, but I didn't have MS with either of my pregnancies so, in my case, my MS experience was consistent. Sorry.

I never vomited (I actually never vomit even when I get stomach bugs), but I had constant nausea. It was a little milder for some pregnancies but definitely there for all of them (I am counting my 2 later losses as well). I ended up on diclegis on my last pregnancy and wish I had taken it for all of them honestly.

I had mild MS with DS1, It was really all day nausea for the first tri even though I only vomited like twice. With DS2, nothing

1st pregnancy= nothing!, 2nd= terrible til 16w, 3rd= terrible til 16w..short break..more @ 20w 
I get the sense they are all just different and you may or may not have it again. I hope NOT!

Baby #1 I had ALL day sickness until week 16 when I broke down and took Zofran. Baby #2 was a lot easier and I would have random days I felt crappy but mostly was a MUCH easier pregnancy all together. Both were girls, so gender wasn't the cause

I was really sick with DS. Vomiting constantly. (#1)
DD was just different. I had really, really bad heartburn and I think that played into my nausea. I vomited with her, but not as much. It has, however, lasted just as long. (#2)
All this to say - I think that #2 was actually easier than #1 nausea wise. I've been on Diclegis (homemade) with #2 and I don't think it would have even touched my sickness with DS (took Zofran).

No. It was moderate with my first and not at all bad with my second. It was worst third time around and persisted through the second trimester. So different each time.

First - nauseous until 18 weeks but only threw up once.
Second - threw up a few times a week (sometimes multiple times a day, sometimes just once) until 14 weeks.

@Cherrybee: The question was if you had MS with one, did you have it with your other pregnancies. I knew some people wouldn't be able to vote because they never experienced morning sickness (lucky ducks! 
) Sorry if that was unclear...in hindsight, the wording is a bit awkward.

It was horrendous with my first and has been bad but not as awful this time around. It's the main reason I think we will now only have two, when we'd always assumed we'd have three. So jealous of the no morning sickness crowd!

@Coral: No, it's OK, it was clear - I just thought it might be helpful to know that my experience was exactly the same for both of my pregnancies. I really hope you have an easier time this time around.

I was very sick with my first and not nearly as bad with my second. I felt crappy the second time, but relative to my first it was like nothing. Hope that's the case for you!

@Cherrybee: Thank you! Me, too! It (and my history of loss) are what makes me nervous to be trying again...but it is what it is.

Three pregnancies, all boys, all totally different. #1: moderate morning sickness through entire first trimester
#2: first trimester was fine, nauseous entire second trimester
#3: no morning sickness ever

I had terrible all-day, 24 hour sickness for both pregnancies. The first time, it let up around 17 weeks and I felt great by maybe 20 weeks? My second pregnancy was much worse. It was awful till 23 weeks and then receded to just all day queasiness for the rest of my pregnancy. I never felt normal till I had LO2.

I had morning sickness with both. It was longer lasting and worse with my 2nd. Hopefully it's different for you!

My symptoms were really different for each of my girls! W lo1 I had horrible ms-- felt like I had the flu for the first month or so, vomited at least once a day for the first 16 or so weeks, lost 10 lbs in the first 20 weeks. But I never got that physically uncomfortable. W lo2, little ms, but more gas pains (had to stop eating cruciferous veggies like cauliflower) and constipation, and much more achy in my hips, pelvis, and lower back

Not what you want to hear, but I was sick with both pregnancies and my second was worse. 
my first pregnancy I was nauseous until 20 weeks with lots of throwing up. With my second successful pregnancy, I was sick with throwing up until 30 weeks. Me and pregnancy just don't get along. But I sure do love my boys!

No morning sickness with my first two; first trimester nausea and motion sickness (which I don't usually have) the whole pregnancy with #3. All girls.

I had mild morning sickness with LO1 (it lasted about 5 weeks) ... I had HORRIBLE morning sickness with LO2 (it lasted 4.5 months!!). We are done after this baby is born, but even if I was considering another baby, I wouldn't even think about it after this experience.

I had terrible MS the first time until around 16w (daily vomiting - often multiple times per day & major aversions), but barely none the second time around! Only occasional bouts of feeling slightly off/projectile vomiting after eating too fast but it has been SO much easier second time around!

Every freakin' time. First pregnancy was the worst (twins); I threw up pretty much every day even on Zofran, but it ended around the end of the trimester, unless I drank coffee. Coffee made me throw up the entire time. Second pregnancy I threw up less times per week but it lasted about the same number of weeks and again coffee made me throw up through out the pregnancy. This time, I feel like it wasn't nearly as intense in that I would go several days or even a week without actually throwing up, and then I would have a few terrible days. In that way, it seemed "better" except that it lasted until about 22 weeks without ever really improving. I had three lattes last week, though, and didn't throw up a single time, so at least milky coffee is apparently going to be okay for the rest of this pregnancy!

I had zero sickness with my first, and was miserably sick with my second.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
Yes- it was horrible with LO1-from 5-19 weeks, vomiting daily.
With the second it wasn't nearly as bad _ I didn't vomit often, mostly just morning nausea/gag reflex and food aversions. And it was mostly gone by 14 weeks.

Yes - first two pregnancies I was zofran the whole time. This third pregnancy was much better but definitely had morning sickness a few months. Diclegis really helped!

Ive had hypermemsis with all 3 pregnancies- 2 girls and now a boy. It sucked. Hope it's different for you!
