Really bad fatigue... but then again every new mum says that so it becomes hard to determine what is an MS vs New Mum thing 🤷♀️
Haven’t been pregnant but afaik the high oestrogen level when you are is highly protective against MS so your symptoms (of MS) should be minimal. There is a bit of a higher risk of a rebound or relapse post pregnancy (as your levels come down) so it might be an idea to talk to your neurologist about a DMD strategy. Breastfeeding might also be protective.
