Pregnancy symptoms post partum
I swear if I didn't know any better I would think I was pregnant again. I am 5 1/2 weeks post partum and for the past 2 or 3 weeks I have been having MAJOR cravings, I am exhausted after doing very little (but I chalk that up to being a new mommy), I am having alot of discharge (TMI, sorry ) and I have been nauseous and today I actually threw up!! What the heck is going on here? Just hormones going nuts or do you think I should tell my OBGYN when I go for my 6 week checkup (i was going to blow it off, but now I am not so sure ) WDYT??

Then I think it is just your hormones.
Maybe give your doctors office a call and let them know. Maybe they will see you sooner, to make sure all is ok
Feel better soon!!

Re: Pregnancy symptoms post partum
Your body has been through some "trauma" so the hormones out of whack, exhaustion is perfectly normal.
If there is no chance you're pregnant, I would say you need to take better care of yourself. While it's normal, a new mom tends to disregard her own body because she is focused on the baby. If you're nursing, you need to make sure you are eating & drinking enough for both of you.
Most of what you described can be a sign of dehydration, lack of nutrition, lack of sleep, anemia, etc. Mention it to your ob/gyn.

Tell your OB at your 6 week appt. There is a blood test they can do to make sure your hormones have dropped. For some women they don't go down as quick as they should...
