Before Children, i never suffered from PMT, no cramps, no mood swings, no weight gain, nothing. Since having my second child (only had one or two periods between children) and stopping bf, i have had much worse periods, cramping and really heavy bleeding, which i can cope with [brave face emoticon], but what gets me down is that for a day before i'm really grumpy and snappy with everyone.

What can I do to stop this? anyone tried anything that works? I don't want my children to grow up walking on eggshells once a month!
Thanks.

Agnus Castus is fantastic, takes about 3 months to start working for most people.
they will help to rebalance your hormone levels. They should help with cramps, bloated tummy, moods, anger, heavy periods. I found they helped to regulate my cycle too (for the 1st time in my life).
Buy a decent brand like vogel/solgar/quest from a good health shop (not a 50p one from holland/barrett as that can make a huge difference to how effective they are.
