PMS and Pregnancy?

[cloak]

Anyone have PMS the same month that they got pregnant? I'm wondering if pregnancy hormones would eliminate PMS or if it's still possible to get PMS even though you just got pregnant.

i think it's more that the hormone changes at the beginning of pregnancy can sometimes feel like those at the end of your menstrual cycle. or, if you're like me, you only get those pms-y hormonal tidal waves when you're trying to conceive but not actually pregnant. heh.

good luck!

I sure did, like the worst pms I'd ever had before! When I was pregnant with DD1, before I even knew I was pregnant, I cussed out my boss and turned in my notice.
pregnant or not, your progesterone levels go way up at the end of your cycle. I think I read somewhere that is what causes pms. If you are pregnant, the progesterone levels keep going up. If not, the sudden drop is what triggers AF to start.

:LOL I haven't cussed anyone out yet so maybe I'm not pregnant. :LOL

Seriously, thanks for the info. I was definitely pmsing over the weekend so I guess I'll find out within the next couple of days what is up.
