postpartum BO & night sweats

while i have not (yet) experienced PP hair loss, i have noticed within the last month, my pits are STANK. same shower routine, same deodorant application, sahm so not getting sweaty at work. i'm also sometimes waking up at night DRENCHED in sweat. hair soaked, neck and back disgustingly wet. so i take a good shower in the morning, smell clean and fresh, 4 hours later i just smell gross. is this a postpartum thing or am i just disgusting?

It's unfortunately a postpartum thing 😭 It's our bodies way of helping our babies recognize us. Just remember it will go away and you'll be back to "normal"

this has been happening to me! i can’t wait for it to be over. i heard it’s around a year postpartum that your normal body smell comes back and you don’t stink 🥲

night sweats are supposed to stop around 6-7 weeks PP but i’m on week 14 still having to change in the middle of the night because i’m sweating so much
