I think I might be PG with my #4 but I wont find out until the weekend. I have many symptoms and cos is not my first time it really feels that I am. Im now in the horrible week waiting for AF to arrive. I was wondering if the taste like metal in my mouth is produce by the intake of folic acid or just comes to u when u r PG. Every time I was PG I had the awful taste all day long but I used the folic acid every time so I dont know.

Have you been eating pine nuts? I thought I had "pine mouth" early in my pg (before the BFP) as there was a dodgy batch imported from China but turned out it was the infamous metallic taste...

Metallic taste was always the first sign for me.....

The day I took a pregnancy test (that was positive) it tasted like I was sucking a penny, bloody horrible.

Test!!
