Another question for moms of 2 or more

Are you different with this pregnancy then the last one?

I am so much more laid back about things. SOmetimes in a bad way...

with DS I counted how much water I drank, took my BC same time everyday, made sure I ate the right servings of fruits and veggies, etc

This time... did I take the pill today? Yesterday?
Drink lots of water, but not as good about it
drank coffee when I gave it up for DS. I haven't lately b/c it makes me ill
I excersized with DS and haven't with this one. Just too tired at the end of the day.
Oh, for both I highlighted my hair the whole pregnancy
Actually, I have an appt in 2 weeks b4 the baby is due so my hair looks nice for visitors and it's one less thing to worry about

Yes and no....

With DD I was super diligent about water, prenatals, not lifiting things, taking it easy, etc.

This time - I drink a lot of water, but somedays are worse than others...I take my prenatals as a routine every day, but if I can't remember if I took it, it's sort of "eh, tomorrow's good"...I lift DD and anything not heavier than her, I rarely sit down....

But, I will say I've been more worried. With DD, once i hit a certain point just about at the end of the 1st tri, I relaxed and just enjoyed it...this time, I'm so nervous, even now at 20 weeks!!

And I've been trying to consciously make better food choices this time. But That's really because I started more overweight than I was with DD and I wasn't about to let myself gain the 60 pounds I gained with DD. So far that's worked (big fat ZERO pounds at 20 weeks!!)

I was more paranoid with this one (#3) b/c of my age.
