My wife's flow was always heavy. She said pregnancy wasn't bad. Never got morning sickness or anything like that. She said the worst part about being pregnant was the postpartum depression afterwards.

Keep in mind that this is just one person's experience, and she's only been pregnant once.

To add to your data set: my flow has always been light, and I've never had cramps. Pregnancy was awesome. No morning sickness, no depression afterward. The ONLY unpleasant part was stupid childbirth.

I, like your wife, have only done it once. So now you have a sample of two, which is double what you had (hooray!) but...still a ridiculously small sample.

I'll add to this, too: my flow has generally been on the lighter side, cramps has been mild and my two pregnancies were quite easy (started easily, there was nausea but no throwing up, I was really tired but generally not too bad). Childbirths were relatively easy and quick, too (still the most brutal and painful thing I've been through, but, relatively).

I wonder if anyone has done any reasearch of this matter. It'd be interesting.
