What does PMT mean for you?

Don't think I have ever had PMT. Since the birth of my son 7 months ago, though, my periods are hugely more intense. Today I have burst into tears 3 times over very little, gotten hugely upset with DH(overreaction galore), feel very tired, and the weirdy one is that DH's aftershave smells horrid and have just thrown away the cheese cos it tastes odd. Normally I'd be jumping up and down thinking I was pg, but unless I ovulated REALLY early is not possible. Anyone? Is it pmt? ( AF due tomorrow.)

Hhhmm, sounds like PMT but the 'smells' thing sounds like....PG!

Am inclined to agree with Sparky, are you, could you be ? Are you breast feeding, recently stopped ?

Still BF night and day but that never stopped periods. We have only had sex once this month. I know because we had a disagreement over whether we should try to get pregnant this month or wait til December. It was day 8 and I've had a 30 day cycle since DS.

Is really weird feeling though. Is totally unlike the normal "things smell bad" and just like that pregnancy "I can't breathe if that's near me or I will chunder" thing. Can still smell aftershave and he went out 2 hours ago.

I've never had PMT in my life.
I suspect a lot of women use it as a nexcuse to be horrid.

Seriously.
I think the same about PND too.

Moondog Maybe a few do, but it is a fairly common phenonemon.

I've been diagnosed as suffering from PMT since I hit puberty. Just before my period starts I get seriously short tempered, find it hard to concentrate and have a migraine.
