Same thing happened to me around 4 days pp, i had night sweats and was hot flashes for a few days. I figured it was my hormones going crazy after giving birth. I have a Oura ring as well that picked up on my body temperature going crazy

Its normal. Keep spare tees close by to change into during the night. Its worse if you breastfeed. Welcome to the stuff no one said could happen pp 🥲 it does get better though!

Yeah it is completely normal. It is the drop in hormones and excess water your body retained during pregancy. I am currently 1 week pp and having the same. Also had it with my first, only lasts a short period of time. Glamorous life of a pp mum 🤨 xx

Im almost 3 weeks PP and have been the exact same. Past few days though it seems to be getting better. I know its not great when half the time its so hard to grab a shower x

I would just keep an eye on how you are feeling, I had this but persisted that I had some sort of infection as I didn’t feel well and it turns out I did and needed medication x

Its absolutely normal its just your hormones dropping after birth. I had it with both mine, its not nice but it doesnt last long

Very normal, I had terrible night sweats for a couple months

Hormones

Has anyone else been struggling with the hormones lately? I feel like sometimes my emotions are ALL over the place and I genuinely feel like I’m going crazy for a little bit. 😂 I know hormones can really mess with you, but I’d love to hear if anyone else feels this way too and how you’re dealing with it. I think hearing that I’m not the only one would make me feel a little less crazy and alone.

Cycle suddenly 40+ days

Last month was 42 days, this cycle is 44 days and counting. My cycle used to be 25-27 days. I’m not pregnant. Any ideas why this is suddenly happening? Should I contact my gyno?

Can’t seem to regulate body temperature

I don’t know if it’s just me but ever since having my little boy I feel like my body just cannot regulate my temperature well. I feel SO hot all of a sudden. It’s what I image it must be like to have a hot flush when you’re menopausal.
It’s horrible and I feel like I need to go and sit in the garden and wait for a breeze 😭

I never had this before having my little one and was just wondering if it’s something other people had too, or if it was just me!

Pp hormones

Maybe tmi or weird?
But I’m 4m pp. My armpits never stink. All of a sudden they do. It’s only when I’m sweating and I tried reapplying my deodorant but I feel like it never helps. Any advice? Any deodorant recommendations?
