Larissa--I am not at all surprised that the symptoms progressed with each
pregnancy. My wife has MS. The first hint was during her first pregnancy.
Another, more pronounced symptom appeared during pregnancy #2. It was
finally diagnosed during pregnancy #3. It appears that pregnancy exacerbates
medical problems.
