does breastfeeding make you feel sick??

ever since i had bub ive been feeling really odd. i feel sick when i eat and nauseated all the time and have no idea why.

thought maybe it might have something to do with the hormones and breastfeeding???

anyone else get this?

Hello Elly-darling!

I can totally relate- I've completely lost my appetite since I had bubs and a heap of foods such as meat, bread, pasta, etc. leave me feeling nauseas!

I too was beginning to wonder if maybe it is linked to the breast feeding???

In my second week of breast feeding I got really dizzy and nauseated to the point I could bearly get out of bed to drag myself to the doctor ....... all this was the result of forgeting to eat properly and my iron level bottomed out ....... make sure you eat good size meals and eat regually as breast feeding really can drain you ! I had to take iron tablets and after a week I felt great again ! During the night feed it is a good idea to have a glass of milo to help your enegy levels !
