symptoms of PMS

I was chatting to Essbee about this the other day. I was saying that when my period is due, as well as all the usual symptoms, i tend to get VERY clumsy.
I always drop things, walk into things etc. To the degree that by the time my period has started, there are quite a few broken things in the house, and i am covered in bruises!!
As i have never heard of anyone else having this, just wondered if anyone on MN had??

Can't help you on that one, I just argue as I am always right 3 days before AF, and I would stab anyone who said different, I always need my own space too, poor DD and DH, how they stand it I will never know.

Last night dh told me (told, not 'asked' that my period was due because I was being so absentminded and kept dropping things! So, if he's right I should be on by the end of the week.

Saintshar, I am exactly the same! Fall over, smash/drop things and generally clumsy. I also stuff myself silly with chocolate, crisps and anything else unhealthy I can get my hands in

hands on, not in!

Absolutely! I crash around the house for a few days,usually breaking something or bruising myself, growling and snarling, eating chocolate and complaining about throbbing breasts!! I had to have stitches once for banging my head on the side of the cupboard whilst pre-menstrual. It was a brave doctor who took me on!!
