Hi all,
I am 30yrs old almost 31. I have gone off Copaxone so that i can start to try and have a family. I was just wondering if other mums who have MS can share their stories with me. It is very daunting and scary etc all the now knowing and stuff. I am not sure how i am going to cope once i have had the baby etc.......So please let loose.

Good luck with starting your family. What an exciting time. I have three lovely boys, and while I didn't know I had MS, my neuro is rather sure I did. The funny thing with MS is that the symptoms seem to stop while pregnant. During all of mine I had never felt so good once I got over the nausea. Everyone said I looked fabulous, and I certainly felt it. If I could capture that feeling all the time I would and I have concluded that the feeling must be what healthy people feel like all the time.
I hope it is the same for you, and of course there are never any guarantees as MS affects everyone differently.
All the best

The main thing is take care of yourself & bubs when you have one, & try to have a support system around you so that if you are tired (what mum isnt) or struggling you can get some help/break. If not when bubs sleeps, so do you.
In the meantime have fun practicisng & relax about it.
