Were your same-sex pregnancies the same or different?

They say every pregnancy is different, but I hear from a lot of people that that is not always true. For example I hear things like"

- With my girls I had heartburn all day & night, but with my boys I didn't

- With my boys I was sick as a dog, but with my girls I was just mildly queezy on occasion

- With my girls I was horny all the time, with my boys I wanted nothing to do with sex

- With my girls I got tons of skin tags, with my boys I didn't

etc.

So, if you have had multiple pregnancies with both sexes, were your pregnancies with girls the same, pregnancies with boys the same, pregnancies with girls different than pregnancies with boys?

I have a 10 month old girl & am 7 weeks pregnant with my 2nd & so far (I know, it's early days yet), everything has been exactly the same as the 1st time.

    With my girls I was SUPER sick. I had all day sickness. I craved sweets (I admit to eat 6 full sized snickers bars in one sitting....they came right back up. Haven't had one since).

    My son I had morning sickness. I would get sick right when I woke up and was great the rest of the day. I craved meat. I could eat cheeseburgers all day long if allowed. He was a much easier pregnancy!!

    I asked the same question yesturday. I have a son that will be 2 in may, and I'm 12 weeks pregnant today and this pregnancy is so different than with my son. With this pregnancy I have every pregnancy symptom there is to the tenth power! With my son, I wasn't sick or anything, I just had heartburn and a lot of leg pain at night! So I keep thinking I'm having a girl this time around, but who knows! I find out in 28 more days, so I'm excited!

    during my first pregnancy, i had:

    -severe and persistent nausea all day long and throughout the duration of my pregnancy, but not much vomiting and no loss of appetite or food aversions

    -such horrible lower back pain that i started seeing a chiropractor (which i don't believe in)

    -exhausted all the time, marathon-style sleeping

    -my skin could have landed me a proactive commercial

    -extremely emotional, but only in a bitchy way, not the crying over sweet commercials kind of emotional

    this time:

    -severe nausea AND vomiting all day, everyday, to the point of losing 15lbs in a month and being advised to visit the ER. nausea was exacerbated by hunger, but i couldn't stand the thought, sight, or smell of anything. then, it all completely ended, abruptly, around the 12 week mark, and i've felt great ever since.

    -energy level and sleep pattern has remained relatively the same as pre-pregnancy (with the exception of frequent night-time trips to the bathroom, of course :)

    -skin has never looked better

    -one small knot in my shoulder hurts occassionally and my hip joints are achy, but nothing terrible

    -have my moments of exaggerated frustration, but for the most part my mood has significantly improved since getting pregnant. i cry at the drop of a dime, and frequently sob uncontrollably, but it's usually triggered by something that makes my heart swell with happiness, not from any negative emotions.

    -weight gain has been slow, steady, and only in the belly - just like my first pregnancy

    both babies are boys :)

    I have two girls (ages 10 years and 5 months). I had no morning sickness with either one, horrible heartburn with both, and bad leg cramps both times.

    But my pregnancy with my second one was much more uncomfortable...i had a harder time getting around and was much more tired. I think that either has to do with what time of year it was, or maybe my age! (I was 18 with my first and she was born in winter, 28 with second and it was a summer pregnancy).
