When does morning sickness start in second pregnancy?

Question

With my first baby the nausea hit me around 6 weeks and it was brutal. Now im expecting again, just 5 weeks, and wondering if it usually starts earlier the second time. Anyone noticed a difference between their pregnancies?

Mine kicked in early in the second too, around 5 to 6 weeks, ugh I dreaded it. I was more prepared this time with crackers by the bed. It can be earlier or milder, no fixed rule.

Interesting, so it can start earlier the second time? This is my first but my sister is on her second and is already feeling sick. Makes sense now.

Often a bit earlier the second time. Every pregnancy differs though.

In my second it started a touch earlier, around week 5, and felt a bit different than the first. Every pregnancy has its own pattern honestly. Keep your usual nausea tricks ready, ginger and small meals.
